First of all, because of this exercise, my bed has never been made neater. I approached this exercise wanting to create a slow, mellow film. This is because I wanted to portray how I felt coming home to a made bed after a long day. When I was editing the slow motion shots, I re-imagined that moment of falling into my soft bed and pillows at the end of the day and I just wanted whoever was watching it to feel that warmth and comfort and just feel that need to jump into their bed after watching my film.
I felt like I should have explored with more shots and angles but I thought it would have seemed very messy and choppy. However after making final touches I realised I could have maybe experimented with a couple more shots. I tried to to correct my mistake from my previous exercise of not having enough depth in the film, by using different shots and angles to complete an action. This is shown when I threw my bolster across the pillows, having a cut in between the throw to a close up shot of the bolster falling onto the pillows. I like that shot a lot as I realised while editing that the length of the bolster gave the shot depth and it guided the audience to my direction focusing on my action.
As I feel like I portrayed my message, in future exercises I would like to create a better and stronger flow between the shots. In certain areas of this film, it was a little choppy and the actions did not connect as well as I would have wanted it to.
