Reflection and evaluation of presentation

I will evaluate my personal contribution to the presentation.

What went well

• The flow of the presentation was very good
• We covered each elememt of film
• We all spoke and did not interrupt each other
• We did not stick to our notes

What did not go well

• We did not have all our members
• We had to restart our presnetation multiple times due to mistakes
• The section of the Animatibc we showed had swearing words in it.
• I obstructed the screen slighty, making it harder for the audiene to see the presentaion

What I would improve

• The section of the animatic we show
• Answering qusetions presented by the audience
• Not using notes
• Not lookling at notes

Pre-Production Planning

For the pre production planning,  . But i did want to contribute to the process, so i did help record the sound for the animatic and partly wrote the overview of what our film, including casting, locations and the choices the we made.

I decided to  take the role of the Farther character for our animatic.  I used the Easi-Speak Microphone firstly to record the voice, but it was difficult to record different characters on my own, so I thought that it would be better to record the voice directly into the Mac. This would also allow me to concentrate on doing a voice for one character, and making other people do the other voices at the same time, this allows the animatic to sound more realistic.

Audience research

I carried out a survey prior to deciding the genre of the short film. I used survey monkey to create the survey, but I could not print the survey, so I had to have the survey online.
Here is the link: Click here to take survey. Here are the Results:

Conventions of Drama

Review of Short Film

The short film I will review is :

The film was presented in a very beatuful way, the animation looks porsfoessional, although it is created using a pice of freeware.However I thoughty that the film was very abstract in terms of story. The story is very simple, so the length of th film is reasonable, but the way that the story is told is done without words, I think that this is a very invlolving element, because it means that the audience pay close attention to the images, also it allows for a greater appreciation of the film.

What is a short film?

I have made a Prezi to answer this :
