feedback from our class:

Camerawork

• nice over the shoulder shots (x2)
  
• clips are too long but well thought out (make them shorter)
• handheld is nice but some bits are too shaky

Editing

• really good credits
• titles fit well with designated scenes
• shorter bus scenes
  
• shorter scenes
  
• more angles
• more jumping cuts

Sound

• sudden cuts in music
• good opening music - compatible with the viewers thinking (unsure of what is going on)
  
• bobotronic
  
• change of music in same scene/location - why?
• sound is far too repetitive and random

Mise-en-scene

• hoody symbolises mysteriousness

Conventions

• Damsel in distress
• dark soundtrack
• mystery - dont get to see his face
• Chase

certain aspects of the feedback we disagree with such as the comment on needing more angles we feel for the length of the thriller there were enough different shots and the variety was good, we could change the length of some scenes however we felt that would affect the amount of information we need the audience to see. We agree with all the criticisms of our music, as we did not manage our time too well the soundtrack was not our final product.

Student Thriller Analysis

Error Code

Error Code starts off with computer information been showing on the screen, as you would
see if a computer had a malfunction.
It the fades into a man in a hoodie, walking down the street at night. You can hear the wind howling through the footage, resembelling the sort of night he is walking alone in.
The error code then reappears with more information being show, meaning the error code is
still processing.
The camera them starts to shake and you start to feel all confused as you cant really see whats going on. This is a good way to get the audiences attention as they are trying to concentrate whats going on.



Error code is successful as it leave a lot to the imagination. It also plays on the fear of the unknown. There is very little sound during the footage which also helps to not reveal to much about the plot.
