EDITING TASK: LEARNERS RESPONSE

Teacher's feedback

• I'm not sure it quite meets the brief BUT you have captured the reality tv genre impressively
• the wipe cuts/transitions work well in this genre but dissolves for shot-reverse-shot do not, it's confusing for the audience. You need straight cuts.
• Good framing and 180 degree rule is observed but lack of match on action is an issue
• Ultimately, this was very entertaining

Peer Feedback

• good music choice
• one jump cut
• funny narrative
• add match on action
• enjoyed the concept
• straight cuts should be smoother

Personal Feedback

• I didn't meet the brief exactly however the mistakes made and footage required to ensure i met the brief were simple and small edits could have met the issue. I would have liked the editing to be smoother and more fluid. The shot-reverse-shot and 180 degree rule in my opinion were met at an expected standard however the match on action was unclear and not present in the final edit due to some technical mishaps. I believe the casual costume choices and 'common' accent are aspects of mise-en-scene which help communicate the reality tv narrative extremely well due to the preconceived ideas audiences have on reality tv stars and the use of stereotypes really allowed chances for a spoof take on the genre. Sound also played a large part with the songs being used were generic pop songs with obvious atmospheric communication that would commonly be found within this genre. Overall, I believe the cinematography and surrounding aspects of mise-en-scene were done well and in future i need to focus more on using appropriate cuts for certain situations and editing my videos in a more apparent, concise manner.
