  1. Interesting opening shot, although you break the 180 degree rule almost straight away (consider your camera-positioning when Immy comes to the door...) Action match on entry works well. There is a range of shots being used - good balance of CU/ LS. Keep an ear on glitchy sound when cutting between shots; you might want to cross-fade between them. Also keep an eye on the white balance - the light goes from cool to warm when Immy goes to the bench; there is also a slight continuity snarl (ideally, you would cut away to something else before the MS on the case). Keep an eye out for erronoues camera movement (e.g. the slight tilt up when Immy is rifling through the case). Some of your clips are a little long - you could do with getting used to shooting more footage and creating a richer sequence from more shots (look at Jess Young's project from last year). I didn't see the specified moment of a character entering a room and talking to another character, although I did spot a kind of reverse angle. On the whole, some interesting camera-work and some good shots.

  2. In all the video was well made with good use of the action match and 180 rule at the start but I did not see the reverse shot in there.

  3. Overall this was good video with a good use of different shots and an underlining story line to top it all off. However there was no shot reverse shot used but in all it was a good video well done.

  4. I like the storyline of this video. you used lots of different shots but there is no reverse shot. it also flowed quite well.

  5. It is a good idea to do but unfortunately there was no dialogue so we didnt really get to undertsand the storyline. The editing was very good, however you didnt include shot reverse shot which was one of the criteria.

  6. The storyline was a good idea, however you broke the 180 degree rule at the beginning, and also it looks like Imogen is holding the door handle with both hands as she walks into the house, whereas from the outisde she is only holding it with one. There was also no shot reverse shot. Apart from that your production was well thought out, well done.

  7. You used a good range of shots and the acting was good, however I would have liked to have heard more dialogue. Also there was no shot reverse shot. Other than that it was a good video, well done.

  9. I thought this was pretty good video. Used the coninuity well, I just didnt see the use of the reverse shot and I was alittle confused as to the way of the plot. But overall I thought this was a well constructed and done video :)

  11. I didnt follow the storyline as there wasnt much dialogue and got confusing. Also the 180 degree rule was broken at the begining. the point of this video was to have 3 shots. However the other shots were good. I liked the acting and the mystery. Well done :)

  12. Its a shame you broke the 180 degree rule at the start but the action match is good to make up for this a little bit. At the end of the video the camera looks very jerky which makes it look a little unprofessional but the story was good and the video overall was pretty good, well done.

  13. broke the 180 degree rule at the start but otherwise all of the shots you used were quite good. Also, at the start i don't think a burglar would just walk up to the door without a care, or checking whether people were looking at her whilst she walked up the drive... still good:)
