The Film and the Peer Group Assessment

After a last hectic week of editing to get the film to a point where both Nick and I were happy with it, we had our peer group assessment, and last tutorial on our films with Rosie. After she had watched it, she commented that she liked the illusions that we had created, but almost didn't get what they were sometimes and felt that the audience needed more time to look at them. Although we are going to be setting up our illusions in a gallery space with the photography work, where people can come and view it, she felt it needed to stand up on its own as a film as well.

She also said that there were some shots in the illusions that she felt weren't necessary, and didn't add anything to the film. I disagreed as I felt that each split on the screen offered a different perspective on the space the cameras were showing, and so helped the illusion a little more.

There were a few other little things we discussed, like editing choices and titles, which I will be going back into the edit suite to change later.

Overall I think Rosie saw that both Nick and I were quite attached to the film, and we told her how much fun we had making it and how we felt we worked well together, so I hope that she saw that we really felt we gained something from the project.
