Final piece - class feedback

Strengths

  • Strong mise-en-scene and costume - army uniform badge shown in over the shoulder shot which provides anchorage
  • Strong framing - eg woman standing up and her head still being in shot
  • Slow pace music fits well with slow pace editing
  • Mise-en-scene of trees and greenery fits well with the style of melancholy non diagetic music
  • Affective signifier of emotion when the woman strokes the photograph
  • Well chosen shot variety
  • Black and white tittles appropriate for genre of film

Areas that could be improved...and how...

  • The first panning shot - stop panning and move to high angle shot when the camera reaches the woman
  • Camera shakes when filming the envelope - potentially re-shoot
  • Tone down the voice over, also there is background noise
  • Maybe include extracts of voice over throughout the clip, with an elderly woman looking back
