Creative Task 2: 30 Cut Chorus (Task 10)








Storyboard for the sequence



Learning Comment

This task was fairly difficult to complete as trying to come up with some relative narrative in 30 cuts was challenging. The continuity was a huge issue, this was the first time filming and editing in a while and so this was far from perfect or what our standards are. We had fingers over the lens and as you can see in the bottom right of the thumbnail, our cameraman can be seen in the reflection of the car, which makes this look very amateur. Some clips have not been edited correctly, such as when the ball is played, i have my hands on my hips when the clip starts, this is noticeable and makes it look like the editing has been rushed. There are also parts of the performance that are very armature looking, when the boy interrupts the scrap he is laughing, this is obviously very unrealistic in this particular scenario, small specific moments can make the entire chorus look shaky and unprofessional. in the next creative task we'll pick up on these minor mistakes and get it back up to the standard we expect our work to be like. 

However, there are some positives we can take from this short clip. For example, we coincided the performance with the songs lyrics, this fitted perfectly with the narrative of the song too. When he's on the floor and he lip syncs "what do you mean" it really engages the audience as our narrative and the songs fit. Making it far more interesting, we also had thought through our 40 seconds of film with a rough storyboard, this allowed us to know exactly what we needed to do and therefore the narrative was quite strong.
