180 Degree Rule Reshoot ~ Final Video!



This was the Re-Shoot for out 180º Rule video. The improvements were massive compared to the last shoot because we had better equipment, which allowed us to get more creative shots. When George edited this one he used much less colour correction, he did however did place a luminance mask over the footage to give it a cinematic feel. Although the colour correction was less we feel that this film did a much better job of  building tension compared with the original shoot.We did actually change the last shot on the storyboard because the camera work wasn't stable enough to pull it off. We did try to use a smoothcam on it but it didn't work, so George just gave it a jittery feel (in post) because that's when the rule is broken.

    You just about manage to include all the criteria asked of you, including a SRS and the ability to demonstrate the 180 degree rule. What hinders the effectiveness of execution is your setting, which serves to be more restrictive at this stage in your filming ability; nevertheless you do manage to achieve this. What must be addressed is the use of the camera, and in particular holding a shot steady. Throughout there are a few times when the camera moves and hinders the engagement of the audience to the tension on screen. There are some good varieties in distances and angles, with movement being attempted, but not wholly effective in its execution. Further to this, the editing of requires further attention to detail, considering how the length needs to be more consistent across a series of shots, further enabling the tension to be conveyed successfully. Good use of dialogue and non-diegetic sound and external space, showing some success in the execution of match on action. I would have liked another shot added in the movement to an exterior location. Overall there is proficient use of the technical skills present, with some simple errors requiring further consideration, especially when completing the filming and post-production elements of the coursework task. There is no reason why you cannot build on this and develop further the technical competencies required.

    Please ensure you each reflect on this feedback for your own personal development
