feed the fish



FEED THE FISH ANALYSIS
As an exercise in continuity editing, our feed the fish was not that great.

The opening of the camera panning down was good but the second cut of the main character walking wasn't continuous and looked jarring.

The continuity was good when the main character walked down the music corridor from the stairs.

In lessons, it was commented that the POV shot of the door was unnecessary. I disagree. I think its an interesting little segment.

The room we filmed in had a large window which meant that the lighting was not consistent. Some shots are really poorly lit whilst others are backlit meaning you cant see our faces at all.


I think the flashback sequence to the 'feeding of the fish' was really cool. I think using a POV style shot was a good decision: nobody else did that in the class or in the examples of previous years.

The ending shot of the main character asking "what do you want me to do now?" is also jarring and not a good example of continuity editing.
