Evaluation

Evauation of Preliminary Task

We watched our clips as a class on YouTube and gave eachother evaluative comments

One of the strengths of our documentary was the cutaways, as they were inventive and linked well to what was said in the answers of the interviewee. Although out mise en scene was relevent to the documentary subject it was poor as it was only one picture. To inprove the mise en scene of the picture in the background the picture should be printed off many times to make a 'wallpaper'. The framing of out documentary was also a weakness as the eyeline of the interviewee should be around a third down the screen, ours wasn't. The levels on the music to speech ratio was not right as the music was too loud and the interviewee could not be heard. Our last strength was the questions, as they made sense without the question from the interviewer being heard.

To improve our interview it must follow the codes and conventions of a interviewee more carefully.
