Question 7 by Devon Muller

  • PRELIM PLANNING

    For the Prelim there was limited planning.The planning we did do involved us making a digital timeline, which in the end, we didnt stick to.
  • PRELIM PROBLEMS

    PRELIM PROBLEMS
    With this shot we zoomed in which should never be done when filming, however as this was the start of the year we were oblivious to this rule.
  • PRELIM PROBLEMS

    PRELIM PROBLEMS
    Poor mise en scene was also an issue in our prelim. as you can see in this picture, we left our tripod in the background, which is a school boy error. This also meant that we didnt use the tripod for some of our shots which led to shakey camera work.
  • PRELIM PROBLEMS

    PRELIM PROBLEMS
    Poor lighting also effected us in our prelim. As you can see we filmed with a window in the background which caused my character to become blacked out, which meant it led to poor viewing.
  • TEEN FILM PLANNING

    TEEN FILM PLANNING
    We did plenty of planning for our teen film. we looked into films like 'Napoleon Dynamite' for inspiration. we also had digital storyboards and a pitch which presented all our research and planning ideas on.
  • TEEN FILM - LIGHTING

    TEEN FILM - LIGHTING
    We addressed the issue of poor lighting by using a LED light. this allowed us to gain a lot of light even in a dark surounding.
  • TEEN FILM - CAMERAWORK

    TEEN FILM - CAMERAWORK
    We used a point of view shot to show the stereotypical Bully character of a teen film. This shot is very good as it is a low angle shot, showing the Bully at a higher angle making him a more threatening to the nerd character.
  • TEEN FILM - EDITING

    TEEN FILM - EDITING
    As you can see, to up our marks we used editing in our final film. This was a massive improvement from my prelim as no editing was used. we also used plenty of match cutting especially in the bike scenes which added to our mark.
  • CONCLUSION

    From the prelim i have come a very long way. i now consider everything when filming and do not rush it as that leads to the mistakes that can be seen in the prelim.
