hey yall, this is jake wickham. i think the way that you used the found footage idea works really well and i can see were this film is going, a few this i could say about the editing, i think fast forwarding the footage rather than cutting it in the way you have would make it feel more realistic as at the moment it looks like an edited film. i think your mise en scene is really good with your signs and campsights. well done lee for forgetting the tent pegs. i woyuld like to see how you would incoperate the footage in to the rest of your film. :)
The camerawork in this worked well but sometimes It moved maybe a little too quick, however, this isnt really an issue. The use of props in this was very good and it is obvious that a lot of thought went into it.
Hey y'all! Its George.:O I like how you havce4 used found footage, its clear this would be a film for horror fans as well as thriller fans. Your opening can work as an opening to a complete thriller film, although it does seem like a trailer at times. I think your best shot it probably when you place the camera down, but i also like your last shot, where the camera has been dropped. Mise en scene is clearly thought about, especially at the campsite where it looks abandoned. The transitions used are interesting and the sound goes well with them, but again, it makes it seem more like a trailer than an opening. The titling i thought was really good, clearly thought about and really fits whats happened. I like the found footage, adds to the creepiness, but i think that overall it feels like a trailer, and sort out that SPELLING.
Hiya! This is Emily Tuite! I think the special effect of the broken camera works really well with the plot of the story and helps to keep the audience interested in the sequence. The close up of the bushes signaling something is around to the target audience creates enigma.
Group member 2: I think this works well as a thriller opening because it leaves the audience on a cliffhanger, you have created enigma as we are asking who the guy with the chainsaw is. It would have been a bit better if he had a mask or something, a bit cliche maybe but it works. Your use of props/ mise en scene was good, constructing a campsite etc. It seems you have used only one effect post-production, the distortion, which works but may have been better if there was more variety. Titling was good as it was placed in 'dead space'.
I thought this was a very good opening sequence, and could lead into a full length film easily. Well done :) there was a good use of props such as the trespassing sign, even though it was spelt wrong. good use of handheld camera aswell. Some parts it was difficult to hear speech.
