What I liked
- The start of the film oppening was very clever as they got a veiw shot from the skateboard. This was very original.
- They got a good selection of shots rainging from long shots to tracking shots
- The acting was good is some points.
- The view shot on the skateboard was used overused.
- The background sound was very loud in some points which made it hard for me to understand what they were saying.
- The titles were very basic as they just appeared on the screen with no effect so lacked in originality.
I would give this film opening a level 2, 30/60 marks. I feel this as I struggled to understand what was going on in the opening as it wasn't made clear. It was not very original where it came to the titles either.
With Held
What I liked
- I like the way they have faded the titles on and off the screen.
- The setting of the woods and the background sound of the birds work well together.
- The different shots of the car driving along was good as it made the film more interesting.
- There was a clever shot in the mirror of the car without showing the camera.
- I feel that the first shot of the woods was on the screen for too long and kept us waiting for a long time before anything happened in the film.
- The acting from the man was extremely forged.
- I wasn't really aware of the genre.
I would give this film a level 4, 55/60 marks. I have given it this mark as they were very clever in their camera shots as they mixed them up well. However it didn't get full marks as I wasn't very sure of the genre.
Blitz
What I liked
- I liked the camera angles used in the beginning, showing the whole room.
- The faded effects in the opening worked well as they were very subtle and didn't ruin the tension.
- The close ups worked well as they didn't give too much away as it was a mystery genre.
- The background sound worked well with the earey room.
What I didn't like
- The only thing I didn't like about the film opening was the acting or the child as I felt it was quite forged, however it was very subtle.
Score
I would score this a level 4, 59/60 marks. The reason I would give it such a high mark as I couldn't find hardly any faults with it.
