Monday morning madness,

Today we had a film festival style class in which we viewed each others creations. It was obvious as we went through the class’s different approaches and interpretations of the task that we have a very talented, creative and determined group. It inspired me all over and made me want to do the task all over again so I could simply try out a different approach.

We then all formed groups and gave each other feedback on our films. Some tips for me were:

1. Camera position: I needed to put George on the right side of the camera. So he would be looking across and therefore the audience would be able to see his whole face rather than just the side. I will do this right next time.

2. Sound: Next time I need to use a recorder as well as the camera so I can eliminate and reduce as much as possible the hush of the background air. By using a recorder also hopefully I will be able to get the best quality recording of the individual’s voice as possible.

Madi Langridge’s film was a favourite of mine. Amazing editing and use of found footage. Next time however, if she would like to improve it, she could try and incorporate more of her own footage she has filmed herself.
