Preliminary task one: Draft peer feedback

I have showed a few of my classmates my first draft, and they gave me some very helpful feedback. Below I have listed a summary of what each person said.

Grace:

- said that she liked the montage I made and that I should keep it the way it is

-She also said that i should add something in between the walking and running shots to make it more continuous. 


Kevin:

-He liked my background music 

-He suggested I add some fade to black transitions


Porcia:

- liked my high key and low key lighting


Teacher Bianca:

- She said i need to add credits at the start

-She said i should start my walking scene slightly later

-Suggested adding a sound effect when Carol realizes Kevin is chasing her.


My response: 

For the most part, I have kept the chase scene sequence the way it is. I think it is more effective in order in terms of building suspense. However, I did add in two shots from the mirror scene in between certain running/walking shots to give to more continuity and make it look less sporadic like grace suggested. 

I didn't make the walking scene shorter, for two reasons. The first is that in all honesty, I spent a really long time matching up the music to important moments in the film, and I would have to completely change the length of other shots in the sequence and align the music do different points in order for that to happen. Secondly, I think that the storyline to 'Mirror Mirror' is a little bit unique and so the shots may give the audience a few extra seconds to process what is happening. However I do agree with teacher Bianca that it's a little bit awkward and I may still end up changing it if it.

A lot of the feedback I got was regarding effects, and that is something i will be working on in the next couple of days.
