The Juno Experience Reflection

I learnt a lot by producing this piece with Ben and Charlotte. I learnt a lot about filming and editing. I learnt that you should not film from hand unless you are going for that effect as it is very shaky. I learnt that you should over film so that you get the right shots and don't have to go back and film again. When we were editing realised that you have to cut a lot of footage and choose the best bits. When filming you have to make sure the environment is safe for filming and also is in the right place.

We used a couple of effects on the footage but none of the sound as we didn't want the sound to be changed so it was as close as possible to the original. We used the effect colour emboss to make it look a bit like a cartoon like the original. We had to experiment with a lot of effects to get it right. We successfully used dissolve to make the feet walk in the shot. this made it look a lot like the original.

We did some things well when we were filming and when we were editing. I think we filmed all the right shots and did them for a sufficient amount of time. It would have been better if we used a tripod or something else to ensure the shots were steady and smooth. sometimes we didn't get the right frames for exampole in some shots we were too close and others we were too far. Our props were not right for what we were doing as we only had a bottle of milk not orange juice which was in the original. When it came to editing I think we were mostly successful as the transitions looked good and stayed true to the original. We made it look slightly like a cartoon but it could have been done better if we used better effects. This would but we don't have the time or skills to do it as well. Our settings of shots could have been better and we could of had the people funning in a shot and the guitar. This again would have made it look a lot more like the original.
