Non-Corporal Entity Association First Cut with Feedback


Holding Shots Steady
- Hand held shots fit the style of the documentary
- Some shots are too shaky
- Only steady when it's meant to be
- Intentional shaky camera, some shots are shaky though

Framing of Shots
- Group shots framed very well, could have more individual focus through-out the house
- When shaky camera wasn't used, use of shots was decent

Appropriate Material for Task
- Clear conventions used for the style
- Smiling too much

Selecting Mise En Scene
- Clear use of props and setting to create an atmosphere
- Lighting and contrast needs to be adjusted
- Effective low-key lighting, but sometimes too low-key
- Lighting too dark

Editing for Meaning
- Could be developed by ensuring shots are structured to fit the tone
- Smiling/laughing
- Good use of contrast to create supernatural effect

Varied Shots Transitions and Post Production Effects
- After effects (night vision) needs to be added
- Censoring needs to be fixed as it doesn't cover the words, fast forward needs to be added

Use of Sounds
- Sound needs to be consistent across the piece
- Very loud, clipping, laughing
- Add in another voice over
- Effective music
- Censoring wasn't very good

Use of Titles
- Some unfinished, a clearer title sequence could be added
- No introduction voice over
- Good Channel 4 clip

Overall Comment
- Some high quality footage has been produced and a level 4 can be achieved with the addition of more work
- Could use more voice, and some shots can be sped up and shortened. But overall very good.
