Evaluation of Shot Sequence.

In this unit we were looking at shot sequences. We were asked to think of a story of which we could film, we needed to have ten shots or more which consisted of different angles. The story I first thought of was a girl walking into a room and she gets a phone call from a mysterious person, however I ended up changing it because the room I wanted to use was unavailable at the time. I then thought of a story where a girl goes to meet her boyfriend she sits down next to him then he tells her he has to go to the toilet, he leaves his phone on the table then the phone begins to ring. The girl picks the phone up as the boy isn’t there to answer, on the other end of the line there is another girl asking for the boy. You don’t hear the other girl but the main girl is getting frustrated that this other woman is calling her boyfriends phone. When the boy comes back she confronts him and asks him who this girl that called the phone is, he denies knowing anything about another girl. The girl gets frustrated then walks away in a huff. Finally the boy calls back the other woman to confirm that he is being unfaithful. I found the filming to be a fun task, I also enjoyed the editing of the footage.
I think there are many strengths in my video, the story line for a start I think is very entertaining when people watched it they laughed and said that they enjoyed it.  The camera work is also very steady, although the quality of the camera could of been a bit better. One big weakness in my video is the sound, when the characters are talking at first you are unable to hear them clearly. The thing i would do differently next time would be, to get a better quality camera I was unaware about the other camera’s available so then I just used the not so good ones. Another thing I would do differently would be to make the sound more clear I would use a microphone to make it better for people to hear the characters talking.
