Audience Feedback
I strongly agree with the comment Jon and Jack posted about our Group Zero Productions preliminary film. From the use of our mise-en-scene (props, costumes, lighting) it is very clear and easy to understand who the antagonists are - the masked figures immediately draw the audience's attention to them being the villians when compared to the lonely man in this short film, despite them knowing he is most likely a low life and a drug addict. The darkness and shadows in the film again give a great effect, conveying the genre of psychological thriller in a very simplistic way.
     I also agree with their suggestion of shortening the scene which involved the antagonists moving closer each time the light flickered, however, as the film posted on our group blog was the first attempt at editing, the new and improved film that I had re-edited had not yet been posted. From how Jon and Jack said that the film would fit better in the genre of horror, rather than thriller, unfortunately undermines what they had previously said about how the film's plot, editing and lighting working well and being conventional to the thriller genre - but despite this, I also think the film could suit both genres, thriller and horror.
     Overall, I am very pleased with the comment recieved, and the feedback given. From this my group can learn what works well and what needs to be improved in order to get an even more successful film in the future.
     From this experience I have learnt a wide range of camera techniques throughout the whole time of creating the film. I now know how to develop each stage of producing the film to get a better continuity feel - taking each shot in chronilogical order to ensure the best quality of shot to give the audience a better understanding. By using continuity editing I can now create successful shots to make the film look continuous - this includes using match on action, shot/reverse/shots and the 180 degree rule.
     I can extremely increase and maximise the quality of my film by the use of mise-en-scene and setting; I have learnt that finding a suitable setting before creating the plot will greatly speed up the development time of creating the film. If these are effective enough, then the whole plot of the film will be more suitable and easy to understand, giving a greater sense and atmosphere. If all these aspects are used within my final film production, then we can happily garantee a brilliant and successful film.
