Class and Teacher feedback.

Our average score from class feedback was 47/60, which is a high level 3, proficient.
The following questions are what our peers were asked, and here are some of the generic answers:


Is it obviously an opening sequence? Is it clear who the target audience is?


Most were unsure who our audience were. Most said it was clear it was an opening sequence and that leaving it on a cliff hanger was good because it created tension.


Titles go with genre. Is the genre obvious? Are they clear? Are there enough and are they in the right order?


Most identified the genre as being a spy action film, but some were unclear. Some said that the titles were good but most said that they were not effective and sometimes hard to see, also that they did not fit the genre. This is definitely something we will change.


Think about sound and the images, are they appropriate? Do they go together?


Mostly all said the sound was good and helped build the tension, however a few said the voiceovers were out of sync, which is something we will adjust.


Camera – are the shots appropriate and relevant? Is there controlled use of camera attention to framing, variety of shot distance and angle? Close attention use of mise en scene?


Mostly all said that there was a good variety of angles and shots. One said the zoom made it look unprofessional, which is something we will consider when finishing our final draft.


Editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer and making selective and appropriate use of shot transitions and other effects.


Mostly all said the editing and transitions were good and made the sequence flow well.


Any other comments: the titles were sometimes difficult to read.


Teacher’s feedback:


The teachers said that the titles do not fit the genre, and that the ‘spooky’ shadow behind emphasises that. We are going to re-do the titles. There are 3 shots (we know which ones) that either need to be cut better or have the music build up before, which we will also change. ‘Apart from that, everything else was brilliant.’
