Evaluation

The filming of the movie of "The Interogation" went quite well. We were able to assign specific duties, with two other characters from a different group. We were also able to perform and film it in a well suited room for the movie.
Another element, the credits and parts of the editing were well adjusted.
However, we did come across a few problems and fractions poorly done, one of which was the moving of the camera and then trying to edit the shot for continuity. This made it hard and showed a cut in the film, however, added effect to the film itself. Another was the refilming of our movie, due to the actors in different clothes, for continuity, we needed them in the same clothes, so had to film again.
Next time i would make sure that we were more direct in our filming, to complete the filming in a short space of time, so we can focus on editting and evaluating. As well as this, i would plan and stick to the script more thoroughly as well as keep the film to each of the planning components with more accuracy.
The most important piece of advice i would give to others when completing this task is choose people you work well with and create deadlines for the making of the movie.

First Entry

For our first task, we had to get into groups, create a script, storyboard and a timings table to create a film. It had to show 180 degree angle, show the use of camera angles and continuity. Emma, Amber and Rosie were in my group, however, we used Josh and Alex as our actors in the film.
The plot was a murder interegation, in a room with a warden and a interviewer as wellas the criminal. The interview is recorded and the criminal ends with asking for his lawyer. With the plot, we were able to use 180 degree angle easily as well as shot reverse shot and continuity.
Our different plot makes ours different to others as well as the room we used and the intergeation idea. The shot angles, level camera angles, the different use of wide and long shots create a different and more unusual film to anyone elses.
