Preliminary task

This is our Preliminary task. We feel it went well and have identified some areas to improve on. These things will be making sure the lighting is always right and taking more takes whilst filming. We used the "pan" shot when Alfie started walking up the stairs, this was used to follow him to show, clearly, what he was doing. We used close ups when he was coming round corners to show his dull facial expression, emphasising the point that our clip isn't a happy one, but a dark one. We also present Alfie at a lower angle so we're looking up at him and down at Michael. This is a juxtaposition because Michael is actually the more powerful one in the scene.

Camera Editing Task

(1/10/15) In this lesson me and Michael learned how to edit our video using Movie Plus editing software. We learnt how to make clips smaller and quicker. We took out the bits at the end and the beginning that weren't needed. This made the film flow a lot smoother and allowed the viewer to feel the tension. we also learnt how to link two clips together and make it look smooth.
