Filming, Editing, Final Piece and Evaluation (Thriller)

I think the main issue I had with this piece is that I think the other idea would've worked better. My original idea was to show the seven deadly sins, which feature heavily in the film Se7en. Another issue I had was that the title sequence to Se7en is so iconic that I found it hard to steer away from the title sequence I knew well. To improve this piece I think I should add sound, specifically a soundtrack that builds pace and tension and also add diegetic sound of a clock ticking to add a sense of urgency and time to the sequence. I had already made this title sequence when we were told not to use font from a computer, my way to improve that woul be to write on a mirror and show it at a canted angle, or perhaps show the character out of focus but the font within focus. Another issue I had was timing, I think I found it difficult to get all the credits in, and set up an idea of the character, the mood and atmosphere for the piece at the same time. I think that another issue I had was lack of 'good' equipment. All of this is filmed off a Fujifilm finepix AV10, which isn't great quality for shooting, it has auto focus which is annoying for doing close ups and pulling focus in some shots would've helped add tension. I like the effects I've added to the footage, I think to improve the edits, I could've also filmed more footage and over laid two clips and changed the opacity so that they gave a more uneasy feeling for the audience.
