During the course of filming are creativity blossomed and so we decided to feature a long prologue to the entrance and dialogue as we felt it would be more artistic to include a credit sequence during the coffee production. This lead to us having plenty of shots (approximatly 10 minutes) of the coffee making proccess. We had a sufficient amount of shots for the whole scene yet we ran out of time to finish the whole script. The original idea of the abusive husband being central to the scene failed as we never approached the moment where we see the verbal assualts. This caused us to chang the name of our 'prelim' task to Coffee (due to the emphasis of the coffee making).
During editing we noticed that there was many close up shots, some may say too much. As a group we wanted to built an enigmatic narrative and we felt this helped achieved that suspence element. We also decided to not feature the full figure of the Wife as this helps build that enigmatic suspence in the viewer. This is all for practice for the main task. We were also not able to use the soundtrack we wanted to to copy right reasons. We felt an appropriate song could be Bob Marley - Dont worry, be happy; as it sets a nice contrast to the tension. Yet we were left with odd sounds which did not have time to refine (mute). We did not have enough time to include the opening credits or include any fade transactions to clearly indicate the change of scene, yet we hope it's apparent enough. We know for next time to be better prepared for what's priority and have better time managment.
Although i did feel the framing was accurate, the pans and trackings were not too shaky, we followed the 180 degree rule and most importantly we showed an individual response of a scene on continuity.
A leason which we learn't is to not be too ambitious with ideas and keep in the mind the time target of two minutes. This means there's flaws in our production side (eg, organisation, managments) we must improve this skills for the main task.
