Coursework: Preliminary exercise feedback and LR

-

 1) Type up your teacher's feedback in full plus a summary of the comments you received from other students in the class.

  • Artist name graphic, Converse branding – lots of nice touches before even pressing play on this!
  • There is the basis of an excellent video here. Mise-en-scene at beginning works well – photos, location, diary.
  • Check the focus in places – a little blur is fine but you need to make sure it focuses in correctly before cutting away.
  • Font for the credits at end is excellent – worth considering for opening of video? I think it could work along with the footwear brand?
  • Shot on the street is weaker – can you do anything in post-production here? Effects? Slow motion? Black and white? Or re-shoot that section with more shots perhaps.

2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write three WWW bullet points and three EBI bullet points for your work.
  • Good song choice
  • Nice font chosen
  • Good product placement
  • fix focus- blurred towards end of clip
  • weaker setting
  • maybe add credits at the beginning 

3) How effectively did you complete the objective you laid out in your mini preliminary exercise statement of intent?
I did majority of what i set out to do however i wanted to add a close up of my artist wearing the shoes

4) What have you learned from the preliminary exercise that will help you in the actual coursework project?
Plan shots, costume and production effectively because it saves time while filming and try to edit as soon as to give myself time to experiment with different effects and editing styles

5) Now you have completed the preliminary exercise, will you change anything about your actual coursework video plan? This could include your concept, cast/actors or technical elements such as mise-en-scene, camerawork or editing.
I will change the setting from the street to the park or soemthing more nostalgic. I changed the name of my artist aswell.

Editing blog task

  Editing: blog task There are some truly fantastic clips for the Editing part of the Film & TV Language unit.  Your final analytical blog task is to find a film or television clip on YouTube that you feel has been edited in a distinctive way and write a 750 word analysis of the clip. One of the key elements that contribute to the effectiveness of the bank robbery scene is the rhythmic pace established through meticulous editing. The director pays close attention to detail and uses a combination of quick cuts and longer takes to control the rhythm of the sequence. Before the heist, there is a deliberate and measured pace. This deliberate pacing not only builds tension but also allows the audience to understand how complex the plan truly. As the heist unfolds, the editing rhythm accelerates and therefore mirroring the heightened adrenaline of the characters and intensifying the audiences experience. Quick cuts between the robbers executing their roles and the reactions of unsuspect

  Introduction: Reviews and features Read the following reviews and features on  Deutschland 83 : The Guardian - Your next box set: Deutschland 83 The Guardian - Deutschland 83 Pity the Germans don't like it 1) Find one positive aspect and one criticism of  Deutschland 83  in the reviews. In a strategy successfully employed by  This Is England , the Wingers are developing a sequel set in 86, followed by a conclusive series in 89, when the Wall came down. It  was riddled with very silly inaccuracies, which were required for the plot to work; and it was on at the same time as the Voice. 2) Why does the second Guardian article suggest the Germans didn't like the show? By focusing t he story around Martin Rauch, a young East German border guard going undercover in the west, it doesn’t just make the viewer empathise with a Stasi agent on a human level.  the peace movement in the west turns out to have been infiltrated not just by Soviet agents, but  gay  Soviet agents at that – a Mc
