G321 Preliminary Task



Evaluation and Analysis:

Our Preliminary task doesn't exactly follow a plot, however, is more of an experimentation of different camera angles and shots, in approach to our opening two minutes of a short horror. Throughout this task, we explored shot/reverse shot and match cut in particular, this shots create the effect of suspense, along with the chosen no-copyright music. despite the decent editing skills, the shots show lack of skill through the shakiness and quick cuts. We used several different techniques for composition and camera angles, some good, others not so much.  The use of panning, upgraded the decency of the task, as it looked more sophisticated, however was fairly shaky. The use of a black screen indicated the passing of time, however this wasn't too clear to the viewer, but the way the lights were off in the next scene, shows hints to the different time of the day. The low angle shots are very effective, but weren't displayed the best way that they could have. The use of the medium shot of Aishah walking, filmed behind her, creates a mysterious tone to the atmosphere, and develops the tension. A fair amount of the shots create a monotone and glum feel, which adds to the genre of this short clip, whilst emphasising the mood of this. It was a good idea to use this chance to experiment angles, this was done by  using a distorted angle when Aishah walks past to meet me. This is rather engaging to the audience.
