Georgina Waite Self Grading

My role within my production group was to sort, cut and place each of the several clips into the correct order and position.
I feel as if my current work is at a high level 3 however could be improved.

Why a high level 3:
- All the clips are sequenced correctly
- Each clips flows nicely into one another 
- The sequence makes sense
- There are no jump cuts or clips jumping to black screens 

How I can improve and increase my current grade:
- Add in and sequence the extra clip footage (shot on Thursday 5th February)
- Slot in some extra footage of the actors walking (close up) in order to break up some of the longer footage and to also add a bit more suspense
- I could also do the same as above but with the briefcase to add more suspicion

Tanaka's self grading: Editing (titles)



Editing, titles, colour grading: grade high level 3

Reason
- titles are integrated in the background, they motion track and the colour grading is done in a mediocre level, setting a thriller atmosphere

Improvement:
-Colour titles to make them fit in the background
-Colour grade better, make bit more saturated

Other student's Film Opening evaluation

The film opening we are using against the mark screen:


  • Sound editing - Multiple layers of sound, fits the visuals, soundtrack (Level 3 - Could be improved with equaliser and more layers/effects)
  • Camera - Shallow focus, consistently handheld (continuity), fitting the mood (Level 4)
  • Edit - Narrative made sense, the titles were not intergrated, colour graded appropriate (High level 3/low level 4)
  • MES - Appropriate location, props were used well, nicely chosen, natural lighting, exposure was good. Casting was appropriate for Thriller/ their specific film (Level 2/3)
Final grade: Low level 4- A grade


Team meeting - Week 1 (29/01/15)
