Analysis of edits of short film

On our second lesson we were set to film a short film using and experimenting with the camera angles and techniques we learnt about in the previous lesson. 

Here is our first and second edit of the film.

Analysis of film 1:

When filming this we all chatted about what angles we thought best before filming each scene and it was very much a case of trail and error. We experimented using long shots and over the shoulder shots but found that as the subject of the clip was so simple it would be best to have clear and simple filming too. We didn't use and flips and transition edits that were too fancy to keep the style naturalistic. I would have liked to have spend more time on it because I feel there was more that we could have done but all in all for a first attempt I think it was an alright go. 

Analysis of film 2:
The second edit we went a big wild, and experimented with the serif programming. We used a royalty free website to download MP3 clips of music and added them to the film to play alongside it. We also added some images and dragged them into the screen so they would pop up through the the film. We also managed to make our transitions smoother. For me to improve i would have liked to have spent more time using serif instead of giving my friend ideas. Because although I was watching and taking notes on what we had to do for each step I would have liked to have actually done more As it think I would have learnt better this way..
