Preliminary task- teacher feedback.

Editing- When editing we broke up shots such as walking shots so that we cut from it to something else then back again so that it didn't go on for ages and get boring. we used a bit of special effects at one point which did look good but we need to be careful not to get in the habbit of using them or go too over board with them as it could make the clip look tacky or out of place. Our match on action was good when we opened the door and had someone walk through it because it's all on time and we cut it in the right places, however when we did the match on action for the brief case when it got turned around we didn't cut it in the right place beacuse the shots look out of sync and as if its a repeat from the other side but seconds before hand because we didn't cut the shots well enough to make them flow in time from one to the other. With the 180 degree rule we are pretty sure we broke it because we shot from one side of one of the characters but then with the other character we changed sides so it was going diagonally instead of keeping it on the same side for the new character. The sound we used we just flicked through random ones and found a nice sound taht fitted with the clip, and by chance it got quieter when the characters were talking and also it built up suspence in the right places. We also kept it at a reasonable level so that it wasn't too in your face but loud enough so you could hear it and get a feel for the clip.
Camera work- Our framing was good as we didn't worry about keeping the whole of somebody in the shot but made sure we got most of the other character. We used the space well and mo0st of our shots like close ups to the face were positioned to the side but still with little background to the other side. the colours we chose for the table cloth was a green/tourquise colour because to us that represented a poker table but when we came to filming the character was wearing a black shirt which went well with the cloth.
