First Draft with Feedback

In class we watched all of the rough cuts and gave some feedback to all of our classmates. We then received all of the feedback to help us re shoot or improve some of the titles. The class scored us out of 60 as if it was our real thing.

The average score we received for our production was 45. This is slightly inaccurate as we received some marks a lot higher and lower than the average which brought the average down. We had some very strong points which we should not change but we also had some items that needed changes. Our strong point was our sound. Everyone said that it was really good and it fitted well with the genre. Some people thought that the genre was unclear but some people understood that it was a horror and thriller. People also liked our sound effects. The alarm clock was also a strong positive. People liked the sound and also how loud it was.

The titles we used had some mixed reviews. Some people really liked the font and the colour but some people thought that some of the words were unclear against the windows. There was also a few spelling mistakes and grammatical errors which people picked up on and we have already changed them.

Most of the reviews about the acting were very positive, but they did think that there needed to be some more emotion in the facial expressions towards the end. This was also put to us from our teachers and when we re shoot we will take this into account.

Our class mates were really impressed with the amount of camera angles and different types of shots we used. People also really liked the editing and how that Maddie's family disappears.
