I believe my final project turned out well as me and the people in my group made sure we did everything we could to make our filming and editing up to a good standard. For example we made sure we used a lot of different people for our filming and made sure we used the tripod when possible. However at one point we couldn’t used the tripod as we were missing a piece from the camera which attaches the camera to the tripod so we had to do a bit of filming hand held which may effect our final piece.
If I were to do this project again I would make sure I would use the tripod at all times to make the filming steady and I would make sure there were more cut aways within our editing of our filming as we could of used more than we did.
A lot of the final piece went well, for example we used confident people, we had good shots of different things such as different types of phones, people on phones, people talking about mobile phones and so on. We also edited different types of ring tones into the back of our filming to give it a better effect. As well as this we used a different range of shots and made sure we talked about the things we should do within our final piece.
We decided to used a high key lighting for most of our final piece, for example we did a lot of filming outside or in a really lit corridor or classroom, this was so the final piece was shown clearly and it was easy to see and understand.
The equipment we used all went well apart from the one time when we couldn’t find the piece of equipment which attaches the camera to the tripod therefore the filming wouldn’t be steady at that point. Also the microphone was quite difficult to use as when we filmed with the microphone it was quite difficult to figure out what the person was saying who we were filming.
The people we used in our final piece all were confident and discussed the things that needed to be discussed within this project. However some of the people we used weren’t as confident and didn’t seem to sure with what they were doing and had to ask questions when it came to filming.
Within the filming we decided as a group to re-shoot certain things a couple of times just in case it went wrong or we could get a better shot of that shot.
In conclusion I believe our filming and editing for this final piece went good and we did the best we could, the only things I would change if I were to re-do this project would be using the tripod more often and use more cut aways.
