Blog Post 2 - Beatricse Lazar - Prelim Evaluation

PRELIM EVOLUTION

Good skills:
- I enjoyed to plan the Storyboard because it was interesting to think about the camera angles and the actors' positions.
- I had to do acting in the prelim wich I did not really like because I like be behind the camera to make sure that everything goes well. I feel like, I am not in control if I am acting. However the short film worked well compare to this fact. (haha)
- I easiely understood the way the camera works
- The camera angles and key-terms were simple to memorise and I also foud them pretty easy to involve in the storyboard and our film

Things I would develop:
- When we done our shootings, We did not pay attention on the rule of thirds when the subject's head needs to be in the 2/3 and so we shoted from a too low angle.
- Other "mistake" was in the editing beacuse when Jessica walks into the seen, when we did the cuts, we did not check which leg (right or left) she steps on. It was a bit bothering to the eye.
- Last thing I would say is that maybe our film was a bit too short, about 24 seconds.

I liked  to work with the others, everyone had great ideas and we could use nearly all of them. We sticked to the storyboard as much as we could however we made some change through the shooting. The shooting took max 2 hours which was pretty fast compare to the fact that this was the first time us working together. With the editing, we shared the work, and we managed to finish it in 30 mins.
