Progress
This explains the processes of what I improved on overtime and how I dealt with my resource
Throughout the entire process, many mistakes were made. For example, shooting schedules and character and what they would become.
Western project.
Overall the western project went well, technically the short film was good. However many improvements were still needed, including over use of sound and same shot-types.
Preliminary task.
In the preliminary task, there were many improvements including continuity and dialogue. For example, the dialogue between the two characters conversation was cut short due to poor editing. Furthermore, the continuity of the scene was flawed e.g. the bag was left in frame during the matched cuts. However, I believe that there were positives to take away e.g. the low angle shot of the male actors foot tapping because he is nervous.
However these 2 previous projects allowed me to realise what needed improving for my upcoming film project.
Throughout all 3 films I shot, I thought my organisation of my human resources was good and organised. For example all my actors turned up at the location on time with all the correct props.
The only logistical problems I faced was when to shoot to fit in with my actors free time. Other than that no other logistical problems arise.
All equipment, actors and deadlines were managed well, some shooting deadlines were missed due to problems with finding time for my actors. Locations were changed due to the distance away from my house was miles closer making it easier for my actors. The school location was easy to film in due to the emptiness of the hall at the time, so no problems occurred regarding locations.
I decided to leave out some original ideas of having 3 actors however o keep the themes of social isolation I decided to stick with the final 2 actors that I used.
