Preliminary Task - Storyboard

Evaluation

Harry and Aaron’s Evaluation

Intro

Harry: Hi I’m Harry and I was the editor and cameraman for The Treatment.

Aaron: I I’m Aaron and I were the director and producer for The Treatment.

Harry: The Treatment started with us throwing ideas around for the film.

Aaron: We eventually decided on a kind of psychological film where a patient goes into a doctor or psychologist and murders the doctor.

Harry: We had originally meant to call the film Doctor/patient confidentiality but we thought that the name was slightly long for a short film. We decided on The Treatment while we were editing.

Aaron: We had a big problem as on the day of the shoot our actor pulled out as he had other commitments. We therefore had to quickly get another actor from our class.

Harry: Another problem on the day was the amount of time we had to record the film. We had around 10 minutes to film in one of our locations and so we had to rearrange our film schedule to fit it in. We also had to cut out some dialogue.

Chase

1.     I was predicted a level 3a/4 but got a 3c which was slightly disappointing.

2.     My two levels for improvement was my editing skills and my general management.

3.     Well I took over the responsibilities for the editing. We had quite a lot to edit and I think it went quite well.

4.     I think I have improved my media skills because I’ve learnt how to edit properly and learnt the skills of the camera and also did quite well with the management and working as a team, especially communication.
