This is the first piece we have done in class, I was in a group with 3 other people. We were given the title 'The Package' and could do anything with it. We decided we wanted a storyline that was dark(ish); a box full of fingers gets mixed up with a unassuming boy's present to his girlfriend. We used a song created by my brother on logic as well as some non copyright songs on the final cut application. I found this task really fun and exciting, arranging the shots was interesting and altering the lighting like in the "mafia boss" scene was too. However, the overall product had some mistakes and things we could have executed better, like out of focus shots, bad pans and blurry scenes when we were just getting used to how to use autofocus. I think if we were to do it again it would be much better because we'd have learned from our mistakes, and know how to create a more inspiring frame and therefore achieve a better outcome because of the prior experience.
