Change - Final MARM

Despite having three weeks to produce this project I definitely think that the final project did not sure the narrative as well as some of my previous projects. Instead of writing a 2minutes video I had intact written a 10minute short. After forcibly cutting out a whole scene and making dramatic cuts to each of the other segments the overall film did not run as smoothly as I wanted it to, and was picked up on by the tutors. 

The picture overall is stunning from getting our hands on a C100 to use, and this my new definite favourite character but this is let down by the rest of the story. The acting is well played and I am impressed with the quality of the build, from smoothness of the shots to timing of focus pulling. Personally I feel the sound is incredible sketchy as a lot of it is rerecorded spot sounds to make up for problems the girls had on set. There are some clips where it feels the sound ruins the shot because of the off timing but that was mainly due batteries dying on set with the mic. 

In future I think I really need to have a simpler narrative for shorter projects, instead trying to create a complex piece.
