past students workkk.

Here is a screenshot of the work we had done in class looking a past students work.

One video I really enjoyed was by Kalkidan and Lorelle called Paw. The storyline was very good and portrayed the the social realist genre good.
One thing I really liked about this was the writing they had used for the credits. The writing was big and bold and was clear to read. Also the writing stayed on long enough for the audience to read and personally i thought the writing was quite gritty which suited the genre.
The closeup they had shot of the main girls face was very effective. It showed the bruises and the nose blood very clearly to the audience and fit the genre because her boyfriend must have hit her as the lyrics in the background music had suggested. I thought this also showed the theme of violence which is shown throughout social realist themes.

I like the long shot the have used. Not only does is show the person but it also shows the surrounding area which is quite urban and is full of council houses and flat so again it goes with the theme.
This is a very good shot as well as it shows the surrounding areas of where the girl is from which is quite gritty and urban.
One thing I didn't like was this part they had shown this for a second to long i would have made it shorter so it was more affective and grabbed the audiences eye.
The match on action they had used for this part was very good. It flew into each part perfectly. I also thought the writing went well with the picture itself as so she looked very small compared to the writing.

Jaya and Hardeep Bridges.
I thought there were some good aspects of their work however it wasn't overall as good it was quite boring and confusing. 
I thoguht the over the shoulder shot was quite as it shows where the it has been shot.Which is shown too be quite gritty and its a realistic setting.
I thought this was quite a realistic shot as well as it shows the characters reaction to what the white male is saying. So the audience know what he is saying the character isn't liking.
I didn't like this shot as it made it confusing for me. I don't this had any relevance to what the storyline was about and i think they could have shortened it or show the girl with the women to show her background.
I like the writing they had used as it shows the background of the storyline as its indian. However i think they could have shortened the length of how much they kept this on the screen it was far too long for a only a word.
I didn't like this shot. It was very confusing about what was happening. It looks as if the white male is trying to bother the indian girl however its supposed to be a mixed race relationship. i did not understand the storyline clearly as it didn't show what was happening with the shots clearly enough.
