Composition Exercise.....

This is our composition exercise. For this we had to think about how the shots were positioned along the "Golden Mean" on the screen. To help us position the shots as best as we could, we used the grid marker on the camera. 


We used a variety of shots including mid shots, long shots, close ups and camera panning to help vary it and make it flow better. 


At 00:06 we had the issue of dead space. We didn't position this correctly for the camera panning and ended up with a large area in the middle, this then draws the attention of the audience. 


We also had the issue of our actors laughing when saying that their cat had died, this distracts the audience.


On the other hand when editing, we tried to make sure that the transitions were perfect with no jump shots. We assured that we didn't have any jump shots but the transitions aren't perfect but it's bearable to watch.


We are now going to go through the film that we are going to remake and make sure that we know exactly what we're doing. :) :)
