Some good analysis and lots of interesting ideas. I nned to see planning of your actual production now - show evidence of scripting, choice of actors and interviews, questionnaire you target audience and take photos of location. Upload a storyboard animatic and get some feedback from friends. You have lots to do in a short space of time Will - you film after Christmas.

Props

One of the main props we would need to use for a Horror film is a weapon of some kind, the weapon will be more memorable if it is unique, this would be good as it will help the audience remember the film more. Below is a mind map of the possible weapons we could use and the benefits of using them.

Character Realism

When creating a costume for the killer, to help make it realistic if the killer is needed to look scary, scarring could be applied to the actors face to create this effect. This could be produced with liquid latex and make up. This can be used to create realistic scarring deformations and also the effect of someone with a cut throat. This could help if in the scene someone gets killed as if fake blood was used as well this could help the actor look like they have actually been killed.  This overall would make the scene look more professional and real.

If we make the killer, possessed or to make him scarier we could change the colours of their eyes, creating a spooky effect. You can get many colours and types such as extremely dilated, bloodshot or a block colour.

Other objects that could be used to change the appearance of the killer could include items such as a wig, to change the colour and type of their hair, face paint, to add scary features to there face such as bloodshot red lips. We could also use CGI to help add effects to the appearance of the actor.

The Ring - First 2 minute analysis

The Ring is a 2002 American psychological horror film directed by Gore Verbinski and starring Naomi Watts and Martin Henderson. It is a remake of the 1998 Japanese horror film Ring. The first 2 minutes starts with the Dreamworks logo, and the man fishing from the moon. There is a variantion from the oirginal version of this though, when it is on the man, the moon flashes into a full moon, but the middle is empty. This is the logo of the film.

The First scene then fades in 26 seconds into the scene, the shot is of a Creepy looking house in the dark, the sound is like a staticy sound that the audinece assumes is rain. You then hear someone talking about televisions, it is a girl and has a slightly american accent. It then flicks to a wide shot of 2 girls, one is on a bed and the other is sitting on the floor. You then realise that the girl on the bed is the girl you heard talking about televisions. The lighting is quite dim, and you can see they are staring at something and the way the light on them changes very often suggests that they are watching a television. The camera slowly zooms in on the 2 girls allowing you to see there faces very clearly. This suggests to the audience that these 2 are the main charcters, or they are about to get killed. Then the other girl gives the girl on the bed the remote and asks her to choose something to watch. It flicks to the television and you see it get turned off. It then flicks back to the girls. Up until this point in the film if you didnt know that the film was a horror, you wouldn't be able to tell that the film is a Horror as not much fits into the horror cliches or conventions. But the black haired girl starts to set the scene and tell the other girl a spooky story. It then uses the 180 rule to flick from one girl to the other while the story is being told. This tells the audience that the film is definantly a Horror film. The camera slowly zooms in on the girls as they speak. You can clearly see that the girl on the left seems very scared by the story, it looks as if tears have come to her eyes. She then asks her ffriend where she heard the story from and the friend replies that she doesnt know and asks why. Then the girl says that she has seen the tape. The audience then realises that the girl will die. The other girl tries to tell her its just a story but she doesnt belive her. This is the end of the 2 minutes. There is no music while this is happening just the rain in the background, the television when it is on and the voices of teh two girls. The lighting stays the same throughout the scene, dark to help give off a spooky vibe but light enough so the audience can clearly see the girls faces and expresions. This is quite a good start of a Horror film, as it builds tension within the scene and also hooks the viewer, making them want to stay and watch more.

Freddy vs Jason - First 2 minute and Titles Analysis

Titles
The first titles you see are the New Line Cinema titles, there is nothing different about the usual New Line Cinema title they usually show. This title is from 0 - 6 seconds. The next title you see is a piece of skin covering the whole of the screen, a cut across the middle appears, with blood dripping out of it. Then in quick succession many other cuts all over the screen appear. And then soon after that the skin falls in chunks into the background. Some of  which fall into the middle to create a blood red New Line cinema, this then starts to liquidize and it looks like it turns into blood. It falls towards the screen, covering it and turing it black. It then cleverly wipes off to reveal another layer of skin which blood is thrown on from the left. Once the blood has settled on the wall of skin, the title of the film then raises forward. A large cut appears down the middle and the two sides fold out respectively. This is quite a good title scene as it involves many clever effects and gives the audience all the relevant information and also clearly lets them know that the film is a Horror.

First 2 Minute Analysis


The first 2 minutes of Freddy vs Jason starts of with the first title then cuts too a scene set in a basement like area. The camera is slowly panning the scene, it passes a red furnace which is lit, the light coming from this is almost reaching out grabbing the camera, you then see the door be opened very quickly by a hand, and what looks like a doll is thrown into it. The door is then slammed shut. The way the hand comes from beneath the camera almost makes it feel like a Point of View shot. The shot changes to a young girl, clearly scared looking at the camera. It then flicks to a long shot of a man sharpening something metal on a grinder. You hear a deep mans voice talking, he says "My children". This is very weird and is used to help scare the audience. I flicks to a closer shot of the man sharpening something, and it appears to be claws of some kind. It then shows a close up of the doll burning, the doll looks like the girl you saw, making the audience assume that this man is going to do what he did to the doll, but to the girl. It then shows the man turning around with a claw on his finger while the voice says how he is called the "Spring wood Slasher". You see thee girl backed up against the wall, the camera looks down on her, showing how weak she is. Then a tall featureless shadow is seen on the wall. You see the shadows hand move up in an aggressive manner and claws come out of the fingers. All of this suggests to the audience that something is about to happen. The little girl seems to kneel down in front of this man, the camera the flicking to the doll which is completely melted now, suggesting the action is about to start and you hear a girls scream in the background. This makes the audience assume that the man has killed the girl. This is scary as the weapon is something the audience has never seen before and you do not see the killing happen, allowing the audiences imagination to vision it. The camera then shows a man with a cigarette and a picture. He seems to be stroking the picture, when people do this it usually shows there love for the person or object in the picture. He then turns the picture over allowing the audience to see it is a young girl, the audience doesn't assume that this is his daughter due to what just happened with the other girl, but another victim of his. It then shows a close up of the mans face, he looks wantingly at the picture and licks the back. this is very scary as it is something people don't usually do and you assume that he is a sick and twisted killer. He then puts the picture in a book of children's photos, the viewer assumes that the other pictures you can see are other victims, the book itself is about half way open, suggesting that he has killed many. When it shows the photo album you hear him say "My rein of terror, was legendary. Dozens of children would fall by my blade." This is creepy as it is like the killer is telling the audience the story. You then see a extreme close up of the killers face, allowing you to see teh little emotion and then he laughs, as if his killings are a game. You then hear him telling more of the story, he says about how the parents came for him. While he is saying this you see a woman light a molotov cocktail and through it through a window, from what he is saying, you assume that the window is that of his lair. You see many people watching as the building goes up in flames. A news story is seen burning, maybe suggesting the end of the killings. The voice then says about after they killed him, they created something worse. Then a face is panned onto shot, the face itself is disfigured and disgusting. You see the face moving as you hear him talking, suggesting it is him talking. From hear you now assume the killer is talking about his past to you. You then see some bloody hands, strung up like a puppet and then also some feet. You then see a large tower with a scarred man, who you assume is the killer has his claws up as if he's puppeteering then slices this fingers and a boy jumps out of the window, this suggests to the viewer that the killer is no longer in a psychical state but a mental one, this is scary as there is no apparent way to kill or capture him. A girl then wakes up as this happens, suggesting to the viewer that he is in your dreams. You see his face and then it pans to his stomach, you see him rip off his T-shirt and you see tiny mouths suggesting that he either absorbs his kills or feeds off them. You then see a boy get pulled seemingly through his mattress into a hole and lots of blood come flying back up through the whole, making the audience believe he is dead. You then see some skin, like the titles I reviewed earlier this post, is cut in half and his face comes through it towards the camera. It then pans out and you realise the skin was a boys stomach and the killer, walks out of it, killing the boy. You then see the killer jump out of a bath and then drag a girl into it, you guess that he is going to drown her, and then you see a girl being eaten by a slug which has the face of the killer on it. The first two minutes ends here. Overall the first two minutes of this film is very different to normal horror movie starts as it almost seems like a trailer the way it quickly flicks from shot to shot. But it is good as it helps explain to the audience who he is and a basic story line, but it doesn't seem to catch the eye of the viewer and makes them want to watch it as the action is too quick for the viewer to get interested in.

Possible locations

Horror films need to be set in a scary location of some kind or a desolate and remote location. One of the cliches of Horror is that the film is set in a remote location. Several other horror films are set in abonded houses or castles.

Another location that a Horror film could be filmed in is a spooky wood, a empty highway or somewhere dark and gloomey such as a mine.

Costumes

For our Horror genre clip we will have to have costumes. Usually there are 3 sort of costumes that are used. They would all be quite easily accessible. The first type of costume we would need is a civilian costume, for this we could use ordinary clothes, but usually the clothes are very basic and something every type of person can relate to, this sort of outfit would usually involve trainers, jeans, a t-shirt, a coat and quite often a plan baseball cap. These are the most common type of clothes the victims wear in Horror films.

The next sort of costume that might be needed for a Horror genre is a policeman outfit. This would be very simple as they can be bought from a fancy dress store. And the gun can be easily be bought very cheaply in a toy store. If a different sort of gun is needed there are many tutorials on Youtube which can be made to create non-working lookalike guns. A picture below is what the costume might look like.

The third type of outfit that would be needed would be that of the killers. There are many types of killers in horror films such as dead little girls, to knife bearing maniacs. This outfit will probably be the hardest to create as the options are so wide. Another part of the costume the killer would have is a weapon, this is also a very wide category and could be hard to decide what to use.. Below is a mind-map of costumes and weapons that have already been used in Horror films.

Film Project

We have decieded to create the start of a horror film. We have decieded to do this as we think that a Horror film will be easier and will allow us to achieve the high grade we both aim for. One reason we have done this as location will be able to find as a Horror can be filmed within the vecinty of civilisation as this helps the viewer relate to the victims scaring them when they are in a similar location. Another reason why we chose to do a Horror, as the target audience is very precise and we will be able to easily target them. It will be easy to follow certain Horror cliches allowing the viewer to know what they are watching. It will also be easy to make the scene scary and will make the viewer want to watch on.

Film Project

To create the start of the film scene, I paired up with adam dickinson. We need to decide what genre of film we are going to do,  however we are stuck between the choice of Action and Horror. But there are benefits and disadvantages to both. They are listed below.


ACTION GENRE


Advantages

• We will be able to make it interesting and cool.
• Props would be easy to get, as toy guns can be made to realistic easily.
• Won't be hard to keep audience interested.

Disadvantages

• Action shots such as jumping from rooftop to rooftop, which is seen in many films, would be hard and dangerous to film.
• Sequence shots will be hard to film and will take a long time.

HORROR GENRE

Advantages

• Easy to make scary.
• Scenery/Location would be easy to find as an old looking house, a derelict building or a dark wood.
• Clear cliches which are easy to follow.
• Clear target audience to make the film suitable for.

Disadvantages

• If someone dies in our scene, it may be hard to make it look realistic, as fake blood would be hard to reproduce.
• Lighting would be hard to do, as we are not provided with lighting equipment.

Analysis of the first 2 minutes of The Transporter

The Transporter was released in 2002; it is a French action film, the film stars Jason Statham who is the 'Transporter'. He basically is a paid getaway driver or if something needs moving, criminals contact him. To begin with in the first 2 minutes the titles are show on a green barcode scanner type shot, the information that is included in this title are the Production company, UNE Production Europacorp, it then fades so you can see an underground car park and another title is shown with, TP1 Film Production on. A sleek black BMW then comes into view parked in this empty car park on its own. The camera seems to pass a concrete pillar so the screen goes black, but they have used this as a clever editing method and now the shot goes closer to the BMW showing more detail, allowing you to see a man sitting in the drivers seat. This tells the audience that the vehicle is of some importance. It does the method again and gets closer to the car, from what you can see it looks like an ordinary BMW. The music is quite deep, but its calm and cool. The camera then moves over to behind the BMW with a Dolly movement and shows a close up of the number plate. The camera follows the shape of the car until it is looking into the car through the passenger side. The title of the film, 'The Transporter', is then shown over the top of this for a few seconds. You then here an alarm going off and the man sitting in the front seat lifts up his arm and its his watch, it then flashes to the watch as he turns the alarm off, the watch is high quality showing that maybe the man is rich, also the way he wears a suit suggests this. He is clean-shaven and seems very cool. The alarm has signaled that he has to do something now as he puts on his seatbelt and some leather driving gloves. At this point you cannot tell if this man is a good guy or a bad guy, as he seems to be very professional but in an evil sort of way. He types a code into the dashboard and the car starts, this is a cool gadget and it will help get the target audience, Males aged 16 - 35, interested as it is very cool. It then flashes to the front of the car as he turns on the lights; this is very dramatic and signals something is going to happen. It then flicks to a close up of his hands on the steering wheel; his hands tighten as if he is going to drive quickly. The car then starts to pull away, some very dramatic music then comes on, it has a drum for the baseline, and this is almost like a drum roll, making the audience anticipate that something is going to happen. You then see him drive out of the car park onto a road, in a sunny place by the sea. This is the first shot of where the film could be set. The next shot is an establishing shot over the whole city. In conclusion the first 2 minutes is good as it helps build tension due to the music and the mysterious man, however there is nothing that grabs the full attention of the viewer or makes them want to watch it.

Analysis of the first 6 minutes of Halloween

Halloween was created in 1978, it is a horror film in which a mad killer escapes and goes back to his hometown on halloween and terrorieses people by killing people and breaking into peoples houses and scaring them before killing them. The first thing that happens is you hear a piano being played at the start, the music is self sounds rather creepy and builds tension before you even see any footage. You then see a title come on, the colour of the font is orange, I think it is this colour as it is the colour of the light that comes from a pumpkin when you put a candle inside it. It then fades and another title fades in with someones name on this time with the same colour font. This then fades away and on the black background a pumpkin fades in, it fits in with the titles as it is the same colour. Next to the pumpkin then fades in an actors name, then the producer and then the title of the film, "Halloween". It then fades away and carries on with some more titles until 2.04 when instead of orange writing, white writing fades on it is the name of a place in america, as this is where the film is set, not only that but you can hear what sounds like children repeating a halloween riddle, this builds effect and helps the viewer to understand what is going on within the shot. It then fades to the title and date of "Halloween 1963", the first shot then comes in after this. It is brought in very cleverly as it looks like the effect 'wipe on' has been used but in reality the camera was filming a tree at the start with track movement to the left and it passes the tree, allowing the rest of the scene to be seen and a house comes into view. The camera starts to move towards the house and in the background you can hear an owl, this adds to the effect of spookiness as the noise an owl makes is usually thought of being quite scary. The camera walks up to the steps and you see some movement inside, not being able to see what is going on clearly as the blinds are down makes the scene scarier. The camera then starts to walk around the back of the house, on the corner of the porch is a pumpkin suggesting to the audience it is halloween. The camera then looks in the window as if it is a real person, almost spying on the couple that is kissing inside. The couple then go upstairs and the camera looks at a widow on the second floor. When the light in one of the rooms go out a creepy sound suddenly occurs, it makes the viewer jump a bit, and suggests that something is about to happen. By now the viewer can clearly tell that this is a horror film from the creepy first scene. The camera then walks into the house from round the back and you see a hand pick up a large knife. From here you can tell the camera is from the perspective of someone, making you think that the characters life you are witnessing is a bit weird as they were spying on the couple. The character then goes upstairs and the music starts getting louder and wierder. Then the character picks up a clown mask and puts it on. This is scary as you are seeing through the eyes of a possible killer. I think a clown mask was used as many people are scared of clowns and they are very strange, this could represent the character and the fact that he should be feared. Through the mask you see the character walk into a girls room, who is half naked brushing her hair and singing, seeing through the mask is scary as you think the possible killer is going to kill the girl as they are staring at them and sneaking up. It also builds more tension by the way the girl doesn't realise the character is sneaking up on her. The girl then turns round to scream the characters name, 'Micheal' to then get stabbed by him several times. You then see the girl fall to the floor, so you presume that the girl is going to die and 'Micheal' is the killer of the story. Then this is the end of the first 6 minutes. This starting scene is very good as it uses very clever methods to build tension and also a very clever camera angle and movement, putting the audience in the shoes of the killer, this is clever as it scares the audience reminding them that the killer is actually a normal person. The music is used very well to build tension by using slow creepy noises and music then a short blast of quicker music to frighten the viewer. In conclusion this opening 6 minutes is very good.

180 Rule Scene

Today we learnt about the 180 degree rule, this is where you decide what side of the action you want to film from and you stay to this, this helps boost continuity as it keeps things the same within the shot. I drew a picture below showing what would be acceptable and sticks to the 180 rule.

We had to film a short scene which stuck to this rule, I then edited it and posted it on Youtube, which is shown below.

Are Action film cliches and conventions changed depending on the country they were made in?

Above the poster for District 13:Ultimatum which is an action film but it is French, it is based on a man from the government manipulating events so that he can destroy 5 tower blocks which house 5 different gangs, and a police man and his criminal friend, gang up to help stop this from happening. 

Above is the poster for the film The Tournament, which is also an action film but it is British, it is based on the gathering of the worlds best assassins, where they fight and kill each other to win a large amount of money, this is all caught on video cameras and relayed back to a boardroom like room with extremely wealthy people in who bet on who they think is going to survive and win. 

The Comparison

Click to zoom in

In conclusion, I have found that there is no change in conventions and cliches when the country was made in a foreign country. When analysing the French film there were lots of cliches but only one wasnt in the British film and when analysing the British film there was only four cliches and conventions which aren't in the french film, therefore due to the fact only a few cliches and conventions wernt in both films, that the cliches for the Action film genre do not change depending on the country the film is made in.

Romance Genre Cliches and Conventions

Fairy tale stair scene analysis

This scene was created by Sam De Almeida, Extras and Myself.

This is my third attempt at making a short scene which looks professional and works well. In this scene we decided to film a few short clips which could have been the start of a fairy-tale. I chose to do this as I thought I could incorporate some effects and shots which I thought would work well in a fairy-tale. As both of our other scenes were based on the Action genre I wanted to see if changing the genre changed what camera angles and shots I might have used. The scene is set on the stairs and outside a building, around midday. The first shot is the first title page; this is a page with the words "Fairy-tale" on. The background I used for this is an old fashioned book, which is quite colourful, I used this as I thought it helped show viewer that the story is a fairy-tale aimed at children, the bright colours would help attract attention of young children. I then used a transition from one shot to the next, I decided to use the effect as I remembered that I thought it helped make the Scene look professional if used well, so that is what I tried to do here. I used a transition which looks like a page turning, I decided to use this effect as the scene is based on the genre of a fairy-tale and fairy tales are usually written in books, so I thought it would help the viewer to understand the genre of the scene. The next shot I used is another title scene, but on this one I have written a vague description of the story, helping the viewer to understand what is going on. I think that this worked really well as it helps the viewer to understand what is going on; especially of the target audience is young children. The background is again an old fashioned book as this fits in with the storyline. It then turns the page but this time to an actual shot. This shot is a wide shop it helps to set the scene as the location is easily established although it doesn’t show a clear shot of the characters face, but this is made up for in the next shot. I decided to use a panning movement while filming this as to keep the action in shot. The angle is looking down on the character; this could suggest that the character is weak. In the next shot however it is looking up at him, there is no transition from the last shot to this shot. In this shot I keep panning to keep the character in shot but I also tried out using zoom, I zoomed in on the characters face, this helps introduce the character to the audience. I do not really like the effect zooming gives as I think it looks unprofessional and the quality lowers the more you zoom in. However it does help link the current shot to the next shot. It flicks from the previous shot to this one and in the current shot it is an over the shoulder shot as the character is moving so the camera follows, this is clever as it isn't used very often used within scenes.  I also like the way as he walks out of the door and the contrast of the shot and the way you can’t see any detail just the shape of the character. The next shot is a basic wide shot to get the action in, a group of people start pointing and laughing at the main character making him cry. I like this as all of the other shots are quite complicated and it makes the scene easy to watch. In conclusion I really like how to scene turned out, the one thing I would change is the shot where it zooms, to a plain close up.

The Corridor Analysis

This video was one created by Sam De Almeida, Conor Redmond, Alex Valente and Myself.

After creating the first scene which was set in the toilet. I decided to make a second scene, this one took place in a corridor, starring 3 characters and myself filming what happened. We decided to put in more action than last time so we could see which allowed for more camera angles. The scene is set in a school corridor around midday. I decided to film the scene based on 2 boys chasing after a bully and confronting him. I decided to use this as the story line as I thought we could use many interesting angles and shots for the scene. The first shot to be seen is the title page, and it lasts for around 2 seconds, which is enough to read what it says. It is on quite a striking background to help grab the viewers’ attention. In the first scene I didn’t put in any effects when editing, so I thought I would see what they look like and put one in, in which the title shot minimizes, and disappears and leads straight on to the scene of Conor and Sam running down the corridor. I like the effect that a transition gives to the scene, I think that it helps distinguish that the first shot is just a title and helps keep the scene interesting as it changes shots. The next is shot is a long shot of Sam and  Conor running towards the camera, this shot helps establish the location as it is clearly in a school corridor, but this long shot doesn’t help to introduce the characters or the story. Maybe if I filmed close ups of the characters faces while running and put that in the scene it would of helped to introduce who the characters are. I decided not to put a transition from this shot to the next as I tried it and I thought it made the scene look tacky. The next shot is very interesting; it is an over the shoulder shot looking down on Sam and Conor. This is a good use of angles and shot types as the over the shoulder shot helps to show the dialogue from Sam to Alex if it wasn't clear enough for the listener to hear, but the angle shows that Alex is the more powerful of the characters and it makes Sam and Conor look small and weak compared to him. But before Sam talks to Alex he steps on a step making him look bigger and maybe suggests that he is going to stand up to the more powerful character. Overall I am pleased with how the scene has turned out as I think it looks professional. I think I could of improved the scene by maybe putting in a few more shots as it seemed to lack screen time and ended quite quickly, and I think that I could also improve the scene by maybe putting a brief explanation of the story in the scene at some point as I think that it might be a bit confusing for the viewer. In the scene before filming again we didn’t involve any props or change the lighting as we thought the current lighting and attire would be suitable for the scene. In conclusion I think the scene turned out better than our first attempt but there are still some improvements that we could have made and some effects to try out. 

Toilet Scene Analysis

This video is one created by Sam De Almeida and Myself

I had to create a video which included several camera shots making the scene believable. The scene involves Sam walking in on me while on the toilet. We used this story line as we thought we could incorparete many shots types and camera angles. The scene is set in the boys toilets and around midday. The image seen first is a title page, with the title of the scene on. This is very useful as it helps explain what is going on and sets the scene, although 'the toilet' isn't very explanatory it sets the scene. For a scene which is longer than this it would make sense to put a short explanation or a short few clips before the scene starts so that the viewer can easily understand what is going on. The first shot of action is of Sam walking through the door. You can see he is walking in from a corridor but you cannot see where he is walking, you can only assume he is walking into the toilet. The camera shot is a close up, this shot is good as it helps introduce one of the characters and shows detail of the location. A better shot for this would of been a mid shot as this would of shown of less detail of the character but more of the scenery helping to set the scene. The next shot is of me on the toilet, for this we used a mid shot, this was a good choice as you can clearly see that the location of this shot,m which was in a toilet cubicle. This also showed what my charcter was doing. A shot we could of used instead of this shot would have a Point of view shot,this would of been quite hard but i think that the shot would look really good if it worked out well. A close up would of been bad as although it would of introduced a charcter well, you probably wouldnt be able to see where this shot was, maybe making it confusing for the viewer. The last shot in the scene, is sam walking up to the cubicle and opening the door and me shouting "What are you doing here?" and then the scene ends. For this shot we used a wide shot, this was a good choice of camera shot for this shot as it allowed both charcters to be seen easily and also for alot of the loaction to be put into the scene, This worked well as it allowed a little bit of action to be put into the scene and it helps show that the scene is based in a toilet. Overall the scene worked quite well, as the audience is clear where the scene is shot and who the characters are, but it is quite boring as it had no effects in or movement. It would of helped to make the scene more interesting if the camera panned in the last shot. Also we could of used a differnt camera angle as each shot we used a normal angle. I am pleased i didnt use any transitions when editing as I think they help define a new scene, putting one in may confuse the viewer, as they won't understand whats going on. I didnt add a soundtrack when editing as i thought the scene was to short to include any music. For this scene when filming we didnt really focus of Mise-en-scene, as we didnt think we needed costumes or any ellaborate props or sets to make the scene effective. We also didnt change the lighting as we didnt have any lightstands or portbale lights avalible to use, if we did i think we would of used them in the last shot to draw attention to the toilet cubicle I was in. In conclusion i thought that this scene went quite well but we could of improved it by planning more and filming several types of angle and shot type for each shot so when we edited it we could have put together a very interesting scene.
