Within our fourth editing session we sat down and watched our entire sequence with the teacher observing and making notes. Once the we had finished watching the opening scene we listened to the teachers suggestions and her opinions and then we explained to her certain parts and what we were trying to create and the effect of it.
Teacher's Suggestions:
- Create a establishing shot which helps the audience visualize the setting. Also this establishing shot may work the most effective at the beginning of the sequence.
- Remove or edit the static shot of Paul walking towards the camera. The effect which has been placed on the shot makes Paul appear blurred and fits in with more of a science fiction film rather than a spy thriller. Also the shot is quite long and the audience may loose concentration and become bored.
- Neaten up the entire sequence. This is so that the opening scene has clean shots which swiftly move into each other without there being any timing delays.
- Make sure that the Protagonist and Antagonist are clearly identified. This is so the audience knows who's bad and who is good and ensures that the audience doesn't get confused.
- There is no clear shot showing that the Protagonist sees the Antagonist following her. This is because there seems to be a gab missing in between two shots. One shot shows her walking and then it cuts to a shot of her running.
