Question 3: Areas for development

I think some areas that could be improved include the use of different effects and camera angles. For example we could have use some low or high angled shots to create more of  an atmosphere and we could also look at different types of lighting that would have made the scene seem more realistic. Also we could look at doing filming in a different setting apart from school to make it look more professional. 

During filming I broke the forth wall by looking down the camera so we had to cut the last shot and slow it down to make it flow and not go to fast, so to improve I will make sure that I avoid that during the filming of the main task.

Question 2: Areas of success

We planned a storyboard well enough to know what we were going to do in each shot. For example i knew that I had to zoom in on Elise's hand when she turned the door handle because on our storyboard it showed a box with arrows pointing towards it to indicate zooming.

In one editing lesson when Elise wasn't there i tried my best to add noise effects on the scenes at appropriate times, like to clicking when the door opens and the slam when she stormed out, using Mixcraft and Premier Pro.

We also effectively used Premier Pro to add tile slides with music both at the beginning and the end, we had rolling slides for these and we had still titles on the scenes displaying our names.

Because there was only two of us in our group we had to do a lot of editing and cutting of scenes during post production, but it turned out good.
