Evaluation and Review of Foundation Production

What went wrong?
We had to film it three time due to lighting and continuity issues. We also had issues with the actors for example not being available. Also the computers were stolen which had our work on it, which meant we had to restart our editing again. We had a lot of problems with the music as we couldn't find anything to fit with our footage.

What worked?
The flashbacks were really effective, I think this made our opening sequence really appealing as it made it seem quite scary. Despite the problems our video turned out to be really good and were able to make a decent opening sequence.

What you should have done?
Look at the footage whilst we were filming so we didn't have to re film anything. Also look at our storyboard to know exactly what shots to do and to make the filming process easier. We could've done more with the costume for example planning it more in advance. I feel we could've left time for any problems we would encounter later on.

What do you plan to do differently next time?
Plan everything before hand to make it filming and editing easier, and actually follow the plan. Make a time schedule so that everything is organised.

What I have learnt?
I learnt how to meet deadlines and get work in on time. For example to blog whilst I am filming and not leaving everything until the last minute.

Evaluation of 20 sec music video


Our music video, Oh no by Marina and the Diamonds

What went wrong?
We didn't storyboard our idea well so we didn't really know where we had to start when filming or editing

What worked?
The editing that we did worked quite well and also the colourisation for the clips worked well as well as it made the video more lively

What you should have done?
We should have matched the editing to the beat of the music more and also should have used more fast paced editing in the chorus to make it more effective

What you plan to do differently next time?
Make sure that we edit to the beat of the  music more to make the music video more interesting for the audience to watch. Also make some clips different paces, for example slow or speed it up to  make it even more appealing and so that it matches the beat of the music. Also add colour to some clips to make them stand out more than the other for example in the chorus.
