Previous students work

We have analysed work produced by students from last years media class. We used the grading system for media studies to mark the videos appropriate to what level we thought they deserved. After grading the work we then discussed why we gave the work the grades we did in groups. From grading other students work and discussing with others I was able to learn some do's and do not do's when making our film.

Do's I found from other films were:
-Use time constructively
-Use good actors who will take the work seriously
-Use a vast range of camera angles
-Add sound effects and music (But not too much music)

Do not do's I found were
-Do not let music takeover the main focus of the film
-Do not swear (It makes the film look tacky)
-Keep continuity in mind
-Actually finish the project!
