Film Opening- Marking

Level 3 36–47 marks There is evidence of proficiency in the creative use of many of the following technical skills:
• Producing material appropriate for the target audience and task;
• using titles appropriately according to institutional conventions;
• using sound with images and editing appropriately for the task set;
• shooting material appropriate to the task set;, including controlled use of the camera, attention to framing, variety of shot distance and close attention to mise-en-scene;
• using editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer and making selective and appropriate use of shot transitions and other effects

His material was clearly appropriate to the target audience. His choice of shots to establish location was interesting and the camera was handled reasonably well. the music was well chosen and the credits delivered in a conventional way if over a little quickly. The camera work and choices were fine but the sequence during the attack could have been improved with better choices and editing. The reveal of the knife at the end could have been delivered in a more dramatic way than just the lingering shot. On the whole I felt that the film was reasonably proficient.
