Preliminary task

Get Nicked from Charlotte Bancroft on Vimeo.
What went well:

• Our match on action shots flowed very well. It looked like one consistent shot and this makes the film look more professional and it stops the film from looking quickly cut off after each scene. 
• Camera angling and shots were very varied as there was a range of different shot types, e.g close up, pan, wide shot etc. Varied camera angles help to show the setting and hint at any narrative events in the background. It also allows the audience to see what is happening from different view points.
• Our narrative is clear as we followed Todorvo's equilibrium theory. We have a equilibrium, then equilibrium is then broken and then we have a realisation. However, we do not have the restoration of the equilibrium. This means our narrative is not fully complete.  
• Editing is done well as it flows smoothly.

What didn't go so well?

Due to the very strong wind and bad weather conditions, we had to improvise with music in the background which turned out to fit perfectly, but we can still at times hear echoes in the hallway and also slight wind.
Also some sections did not go along very smoothly, for example when Kieran answered rhe phone as I picked up and answered it took too long and it didn't seem like it flowed well enough, next time we will have to rewatch the scene and then film the next section to get it to flow smoother.

Our second attempt on this creative task.
What went well: The conversation between Imy and Kieran was very simple but effective. we saw the friendship between them and the audience was aware of the storyline that another character was supposed to show up.
The panning and shot reverse shop actions went perfectly it was very smooth.
The 180 degree rule was not broken and the over the shoulder shot looks very professional.

What didn't go well: Due to bad weather again, our second attempt was a bit windy but the different angles that were used helps distract that from the audience.
Also the camera was a bit shaky this time, for our next creative tasks we have learnt to use the tripod to get the camera angle as accurate as possible and also to get it very stable.

Learning comment:
during this creative task we enjoyed doing this a lot, we got a bit too creative in the first attempt so therefore we gave it another go with a very simple storyline to it to make it less complicated.
