Research and Planning - 9

Planning and research evidence is partially incomplete. There is proficient work on research into similar products, and basic work into potential target audiences. There appears to be no work on the organisation of actors and locations etc, and no storyboard, script, shot lists etc. presentation is good, but time management is not.   

Main Task – 34

Overall there were successful sequences created, a controlled use of the camera is apparent and there is a reasonable variety of shots. Also the sound was built up for effect, and the sound clearly shows a proficient use of layers of found and created sound. The titles follow conventions and there is a good use of suitable fonts. The editing is proficient, although some of the cuts are a little too quick, reflecting the problems had when filming of turning the camera off too quickly. However there is limited action (long opening shots of trains and location) with nothing specifically relating to the narrative. There is not enough substance to the opening which would have benefited from much more being filmed at each location to really convey meaning to the viewer.
