Discuss your individual feelings about the rough edit:

i think we are happy with the ned result, but some people did not edit in some of the parts we filmed and that where in the shot list, i think that is why the time i only 2 minutes something. but overall i think our shots turned out really good and happy with the end product.

no it does not meet the time requirement and i explained that in the paragraph above, but i think with the final part it will meet time limit.

our film will require some new shots to be filmed as one of our group members did not realise that it was in the setting when filming so some of the shots are blurry.

i really don't think i would change any of the aspects in the film as we tried really hard with our planning so when it came to filming it did work out really well and it came out mostly how i wanted it to.

if i could start the project again i would probably ask for more time as i really don't think we did have enough time to plan shoot and edit in less then 3 weeks, because with planning that takes at least 3 lessons and thats already a week gone. and i would have also worked on my acting as i dont really think it was that good.

planning did take more time then accepted even if we did it every lesson and each person had a different thing to do every lesson it did take longer than planned with all of the planning aspects we had to include. with filming i think our time was really well but if we did not have that scene at my house it would have been really hard to make a 4 minute video in 4 hours.

Teamwork during Production:

i really think without doing storyboards, shot lists etc our movie would have been horrible, it was good that we all had the shot lists as if someone was away we could all have it and could continue filming, every lesson we used the shot list as it told us what we had to film in that scene and how to film it.

during our while process with making the ilm we had no problems with out time as we where all there on all lessons we had to film and plan. all of us contributed with our costumes and sets. everyone one was able to make it when we had our saturday session for around 5 hours witch was good because we needed everybody there.

our shots where as detailed in our planning maybe even more. i think that was our main for making the film that we all wanted really good shots to present. on the first day of filming we didn't really pay attention to how important shots and lightening so we ended up filming all of that again to make sure it was to the best of our ability.

Teamwork during Pre-Production:

during planning for my groups film noir the only major problems we had was not agreeing with each other, but luckily we sorted out our movie by adding concepts that each member in the group wanted. for example i wanted to have flash backs in the film and some others didn't want it but we chose one thing we each wanted and that is how we got flashbacks in the film.

for all of our planning we used the templates that where on blackboard except for the 'free time' table as we all couldn't work out how to work it so i made a new table that we all understood. but all the rest we used the resources on black bored.

our group went really well with planning as we all dint work on one thing together, for example in the third lesson we split most of it up as i did the 'free time' table while julian was doing the story boards and Lauren was starting working on the props list and shay was away.

i think we could have done an actual script instead of putting it in our shot list, but in the time we had to complete the planning i think it worked out ok as we all understand but maybe the film would have been better if we had completed a full script.
