Self Evaluation

How well did the footage go:
- Continuity flowed well in London where there was a shot with our actor walking around an alleyway corner which looked empty and isolated.
- The time lapse was very successful both times we used it. I was very proud of how well it went from filming it to creating the time lapse in editing.

Does it fit the Genre:
- Some of the scenes we shot in London does fit the genre, however, the shots in the Studio i would say we would need to tweak as it does not fit the genre due to not having low key lighting.

Did this create appropriate mood/atmosphere:
- The London scenes did create a mystery type atmosphere/mood. However, we need to re-shoot our interrogation scene.

Is controlled, smooth, steady, professional?:
- The shots in London are smooth and quite steady as we used a tripod. I would say the shots in the Studio weren't as steady as we were trying to capture high angles which we found difficult.

Interesting & filmic (Preliminary)?:
- I feel our footage is interesting and makes you keep watching as you don't get to see the guy in London face much which adds suspense to the scenes.

Everything you need to tell the story?:
- I think we have everything within our shots to tell our story, it is also a classic theme of thriller (crime) so it flows well.

Discuss have done in the edit this week, techniques have you applied?:
- I've made two sections of the sequence into a time lapse, as well as adding different effects onto my individual piece. I have added colour correction onto some clips to make the skin tones more realistic instead of being too exposed or pinky looking.

What have you developed/learnt?:
- I have learnt to make sure that low key lighting is crucial for a thriller to set the atmosphere of the story. I have developed on my directing skills as before i was not as keen to tell people what they should be doing within a scene. I feel i have gain confidence in the story and learnt how to make a time lapse look professional.
