In this task I believe we did very well, the why I will try and improve for next year would probably be to develop the skills such as 180 rule and match on action, this I would try and develop through making my own films over the summer. This year there were several things I think I would have done differently, I would have probably used a much wider range of shot types as I believe that we relied on medium shots too much throughout the film and I would have liked to see some more close ups and long shots, we tended to just use the camera in different ways, like moving it about and changing the angles, we were more reliant on the editing to make each shot look good. I would have also done some of the editing differently, because I feel at some moments the film kind of stops for a second then moves on, I feel there is very little flow in the film. I would have also done far more scripting in the film because at the time we had very little scripting which meant the actors weren't sure what to say and it was also very difficult trying to get the right emotions for the character, so I would have done far more research on detectives and how they behave around crime scenes, just to have some kind of idea on what to say and how.
In our next production we will try and use a much wider range of shots, this should be particularly easy as the next project in A2 is to make a trailer which can make it easier for us to use different shots.

This is the editing software we used Adobe Premier 10, this was relatively easy software to use, and it made the editing process very easy to understand, but we did struggle at times to fully understand what everything did.

To view our film and other clips, we used YouTube because it is the biggest video-sharing website in the world and it is the best place to upload our video as it is easy to access and is available to almost anyone, anywhere, it is also easy to upload our videos to as well, and linking them to our blogs was relativley simple as well.

To create our blog page we used Blogger, this is was simple to set up and is much easier then I thought it would be. I have learnt how easy it was to create a blog, because before I thought it would be quite hard.
