Evaluation Of Practical Activity - The Breakfast Club

Re-Make Of The Breakfast Club

EDITING

During the editing process, it brought to light many bad shots that we hd taken, i.e. shot of stairs is out of focus and fig rig visible in on of the shot. the rest of the editing was relatively easy as majority of it was match cuts of the school. We included non-diegetic car sounds and voice over, mimicking the original film. We also used cantasia to import the universal studios clip into our own film.

EVALUATION

On the day we filmed not all members of our group were present, this had a huge affect on the making our film as it meant that there would be less characters; only 3 instead of 4. Timing was also a big issue with our group as we exceeding our limit of filming which was supposed and hour, and even then we couldn't finish our film properly (Teacher at the end). At the beginning of our film we were unaware that we were using a faulty tri-pod, which meant that some our our shots were slanted and at some point our camera was on manual focus, leaving one shot out of focus
. Though when we had realised it was faulty, we did not have enough time to re-do the shots when we changed the tri-pod, this decreased the quality of the first part of our film. Though not a drastic mistake, it is still noticeable when watching our film. All these factors meant that in the future we need to have a more in-depth plan in order to stay within the filming time. Better communication with the other people in your our group and heavily inspect all equipment before filming.

 1) In this shot, we would need to improve it by removing the fig-rig that is visible in the bottom left corner.

 2) As you can tell in this shot and the one below, the character in the grey coat has moved positions, this would be the factor that we would improve. Remember the placing of all the character and keep the camera in the same position when carrying on the same shot.

3) This shot is slightly slanted due to using a faulty tri-pod. In the future i would inspect all equipment before filming

4) This shot is out of focused as the camera setting was on manual focus, again i before any filming i should inspect all equipment and make sure settings on the camera are all correct
