Preliminary Project- Nikita, Steph, Antar, Tom

The set brief for our Video project is to create the titles and opening of a new fiction film, to last a maximum of two minutes. This blog will document the pre-production, production and evaluation stages of this project.


Our overall practical assessment included all features which needed to be included in order to pass, but it is clear to see that we need to improve on the editing in order to create a more effective piece of filming. We chose a simple location which allowed us to keep the focus upon the characters, and no unneeded footage was included. To add to this the sound consistency was not great due to noises from the camera, but the dialogue was good meaning the audience was kept interested. The camera shots were all steady, but next time the continuity in order for the clip to flow needs to be improved as at points the editing caused footage to appear jumpy. Overall we found that we need to become more confident whilst editing our filming, and should spend longer doing so to enable us to create a more successful piece...
