Draft 2 Reflection

Overall Experience:
During producing the second draft, I have learned about being realistic with the time, as for example, we had flashbacks but the actors were wearing the same costume, which cannot happen. Also about our voice over, personally I think that we should have inserted a music background for it, because it gave a sense of empty and incomplete. 

Group Level: 1/2    Group Mark: 23/24
Individual Effort/Contribution: Level 3 
Individual Mark: 24


WWW Draft 2:
  • Satisfactory range of shots 
  • Point of view shot (circle) 
  • Location (isolated/empty park, perhaps establishes how lonely she is)
Targets to improve: 
  • Music - uncomfortable silence during the sequence
  • Memory - different costume, setting etc
  • Establish more about bipolar, go in depth on the symptoms
  • Hallucinations - unclear

Draft 1 Reflection

Overall experience:
While filming the opening sequence, I've learned about continuity, which we need to keep the props in place for every single scene. Also while editing, I've learned that I've inserted many effects, which made the audience a bit confused. What we would improve and set as our targets, is that we need to have a constructed idea to directly show the audience our message. 

Group Level:       Group Mark: 22/23
Individual Effort/Contribution: Level 3
Individual Mark: 22

What Went Well in Draft 1?
  • Mise en Scene - Gesture, Make up, Costume, Expressions, Lighting, Setting
  • Shot of character holding the camera (pratical extension)
  • Music really emphasises emotions (drama genre)
Targets to improve:
  • Show a lot more about bipolar (research)
  • Wider range of info/details about this behaviour
  • Need to re-think - current idea doesn't tell what we're trying to say
  • Develop pace (start slow, and gets faster, to create tension)
  • Wider range of shots
