Self Evaluation:

For our preliminary exercise we worked as a group of three. Our short clip was the end of horror/thriller film and  was about a girl getting kidnapped but turned out to be  possessed and ends up killing her kidnapper. In this clip the kidnapper and the girl are the protagonists. At the start of the clip there is a medium shot of the door opening and the kidnappers legs then as she walks into the attic it turns into a long shot this shows what she is wearing and can show her holding a knife this implies to the audience that something bad is going to happen during this clip. The we use a medium shot again to show the girl that has been kidnapped sitting on chair with her hands behind her. We then use a shot reverse shot and the 180 degree rule when the kidnapper and girl start talking. Then there is a long shot of both of the characters, this shows the setting and the situations both characters are placed in. At the end there is a medium shot going into a short shot, of the possessed girl.

WWW: Overall our production went very well it turned out to be creative and original. The shots through out the clip were used carefully  to show where the characters were and what was happening. Mise en scene was used as there were make-up, costumes, props and different types of lighting through out the clip. The setting that we shot the clip in had fit the purpose of it being a horror/thriller story.
