post 10: Evaluation of skills

Evaluation of work.

I feel the piece as a whole was good, however it could have been improved by doing more research into the locations, this is because when the OFFICER is walking down the INT. HALLWAY and in the shot you can see lockers, this was a problem because our piece was set in a police station and not a school. I was impressed with the acting of TOM and the OFFICER as they managed to remain in character throughout the piece, we also didn’t have to do many shots of each shot.

I have improved my technical skills as I learnt how to edit the piece we made. The software we used was “adobe premier pro” this enables us to adjust the sound, add effects to the piece and pick the best shots from the raw footage. An example of an effect we added was when we made the CCTV shots go black and white by using an application on the software.

I have improved my creative skills, I did this by achieving a better understanding of how to create, produce and edit a piece.

Personally I feel I have gained a better understanding in how a film is produced and edited. I also gained a better understanding of how to access my work once I have produced it.
