Prelim feedback

1) Type up your teacher's feedback in full plus a summary of the comments you received from other students in the class.

Good sound considering it was outside, good prop use however the lighting needs to be better,
Confusion between American and British terminology such as use of "Chief" rather than "Captain", Cast of the main character appears too young to be a young adult working as an investigator, Investigators are not normally alone.

2) Using a combination of your own reflection on the preliminary exercise and the feedback you were given, write three WWW bullet points and three EBI bullet points for your work.

EBI:
Improve lighting, Focus on implementing a better cast choice to better represent and create the character in depth and use a higher quality camera and fix the ISO
WWW: Good outdoor audio, good acting and good dialogue.

3) How effectively did you complete the objective you laid out in your mini preliminary exercise statement of intent?

There were elements of crime genre/drama such as the criminals, a deal being made and an arrest happening however I did not correctly implement sufficient dialogue with the correct terminology which meant audiences were confused.

4) What have you learned from the preliminary exercise that will help you in the actual coursework project?

Camera quality and research are the two most important aspects to a project.

5) Now you have completed the preliminary exercise, will you change anything about your actual coursework video plan? This could include your concept, cast/actors and narrative or technical elements such as mise-en-scene, camerawork or editing.

I will change the narrative from Mark being an investigator to him being a vigilante because this means his young appearance will be explained as he is not in any high ranking positions.

Sound analysis

Image
  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
