Review of Last Lesson (6th July)

Last lesson we researched short films, movie trailers and music videos in order to help us decide what we would like to do for our project this year. Personally, music videos were my favourite.

We then got into groups and went off to film something which came within the suspicion genre in the form of a short film just to give us an idea of what a short film needs to include and the effort needed to make it a success. Our primary goal was to try and use the camera in creative and technical ways.

I think we succeeded as we had some new camera shots in our short film such as the Discovery shot which we also learnt of that day. We were only allowed to in camera edit so it was quite a challenge in and because of this we also had to be careful while filming as we had to make sure we film everything in order as we were not allowed to use the computers to edit.

At the end, the film ended up as quite a moderate success, despite us only having less than 10 minutes to film, it was quite a good film with some new techniques used. The genre of suspicion in our short film was also understandable and it can easily be recognized.
