Evaluation-Marking

1) Well written. Some good points about conventions. Good on introduction of character. Not sure about mix of shot types point
2) Good stuff on the white male and demonisation of mental illness. Women as victims?
3) 'freedom with the control of the films running' I think this is a good point but it needed a little more explanation
4 'cultural capital of audiences'??? Again a good point I think but you've over-complicated.
5) Some evidence of an understanding of marketing but more explanation would have been better.
6) Fairly basic points but covered all
7) A good post made much better with the addition of a director's commentary. The binary opposites of your two pieces...weirdo.

Serif fonts are clean and professional, creating an atmosphere based on intellect and almost sociopathic nature; the serif asks audiences questions while they read them, are you on the same level of power as me? Would you question my authority? This is an intensely effective way of establishing character types, and is executed to great effect i...

Film Opening-Marking

Level 4 48–60 marks There is evidence of excellence in the creative use of most of the following technical skills: • material appropriate for the target audience and task; • using titles appropriately according to institutional conventions; • using sound with images and editing appropriately for the task set; • shooting material appropriate to the task set;, including controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot distance and close attention to mise-en-scene; • using editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer and making selective and appropriate use of shot transitions and other effects. I really like this! The material is clearly appropriate. I like the pace of this and the surprise of the body towards the end. Clearly some kind of crime thriller- I'm going to guess serial killer-very Dexter! The titles are well done- conventional and unobtrusive. I like the way the actors name is timed to appear as we meet him for the first time. The music...
