Technical Skills
To begin with my editing skills weren't too bad when it came to the preliminary task as I thought my edit was quite well for our piece. The match on actions were fairly good. However I could make major improvements when it came to using Coral at a more advanced editing. I improved on the skills I learnt, for exmaple; Effects, Cutting, Cropping, Overlapping, cutting, mute, contrast, playback speed and titles. I made my film much more effective by using the things I learnt during the time I had with Coral and my technical skills have improved vastly.
Time management and Organisation
My time management has improved significantly as before we would decide to go out and film when we all felt like it which was bad because that wasn't organised at all, and none of us were truly prepared with props and where to film, we also had no idea what to say. When it came to our actual two minute opening we were much more prepared organising going to each others houses after school and on weekend to film a couple of days beforehand. This made deciding what and when we were going to film much easier and therefore brought along only the props and costumes we needed for that specific day.
Team Skills
When doing my preliminary task my group didn't agree with each other, and it was split up into two halfs. The first half (The actors) Wanted to get a good film done which was simple yet effective. However the people who filmed weren't as responsive and were very lazy and didn't do much work at all. I wasn't happy with the group I was with and asked if for the movie I could choose someone who I agreed with.
When it came to doing our short film opening with the choice of partner I succeeded much more. We organised and agreed on a solid yet simple movie idea which wasn't too complicated and that we could both achieve with a little hard work. We worked well, organised roles which we could each do and gave each others ideas a go, which improved our movie greatly.
Effectiveness of the Finished Product
I am really proud of my final work as the effort and time put into this entire blog and film really stands out. The film is extremely effective and our target audience feedback informed us on how we could improve and what they loved and enjoyed about the film. Everything that we have added to the media project is clear and simple. The genre stands out as a psychological horror due to the codes and conventions we used and made clear, however added our own twist so it could stand out attract an audience.
