Cinematography video feedback

 1) Type up your feedback/comments from your teacher.

Camera quality is not a problem for this project but definitely one to consider for future projects, nice range of shots and correctly labelled, I really like the narrative works perfectly for the brief. Some good camera movement but not sure on the zoom style transitions. I like it when its a match-cut style but not sure on the zoom in transitions.

2) Type up your feedback from fellow students.

Good transition bad camera quality and very shaky. Good use of audio however a lot of background noise which ruined the video. Weird crop but amazing transitions.

3) Now reflect on your work and write your own summary of the comments and feedback you have received. Write three WWWs and three EBIs.

WWWs: Good transitions, Good use of music clips, good location use and accurate labelling of shots.
EBIs: The camera was very shaky, the background noise was too loud whereas the dialogue was quiet quiet and the camera quality could have been improved significantly.

4) Learner response: think about what you learned about cinematography making the video and also watching others. What will you do differently when you start the coursework in the summer? What tips or tricks have you learned from others that you can use next time? Are there any specific aspects of camerawork that you need to revise or practice?

For future coursework and projects my focus will be on utilising high quality equipment which an make my videos better for example tripods and better cameras. Moreover microphones can be used to help the audio of the overall video. Overall, I have learned that in cinematography every detail matters especially minimalistic camera shots as these are the foundation to a video and help the audience identify what the focus should be on and what is going on in the video. I believe that I can accurately label different types of camera shots but one of my weak points would be actually using a camera to film the shots as in the video most of the shots were unstable and shaky.

Sound analysis

  The clip below is from dumber and dumber. In the clip below the  diegetic  sound comes from the characters and their dialogue. It can also be seen through the two main characters repeated use of annoying phrases and noises.  Diegetic  audio being audio only the characters in the scene can hear. The  sound bridge  can be seen when the car stops to pick other people up and the guitar starts playing a few seconds before the camera shifts to reveal the people in the back of the car singing along to the song. The music is a bizarre focal point because it is not instrumental or digital but instead it is created by the two main characters as they sing along in harmony. The dialogue can be used to represent the two main characters personalities and their relationship as through the harmonic singing and constant noises which match each others it becomes evident that they are close friends. The music that the characters make is parallel because it perfectly represents their mental state and th

misc en scene recreation by laith

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EuZTa3JmcCs - Link to recreation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6f0w5BRasw&t=58s - scene i chose to recreate I chose karate kid because I believed that it wouldn't be easy however not too challenging as it would allow me to practice my film making, I chose to recreate a action packed scene in which the two main characters fight. I used two different phone cameras to record from different angles. What went well? The angles and transitions were pretty good in my opinion and the music perfectly created tension along the recreation and moreover another thing that went well is the acting considering me and my friend had never undergone any prior acting experience at all. What could be improved? Mainly the acting, camera quality and audio quality could be vastly improved also with less background noise and steadier camera movement however considerent the budget which was £0 these issues are miniscule. Lines where printed out on pieces of paper for m
