Draft 4 Reflection

Overall Experience
Draft 4 was very similar to Draft 3, the only thing that I've learned more is about lighting, on my opinion, we should have focused more in closing the curtains, as the sun was very bright on that afternoon.

Draft 3 Reflection

Overall Experience:
In Draft 3 we changed completely our idea, we finally had one storyline, which established the basics symptoms of bipolar. In this draft I've learned about acting, as I'm not very used to it, I had to act and mainly be exaggerated on my emotions.

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
