Evaluation Part Three :

6.) What do you think that you personally did particularly well ? 

Personally, throughout the shoot I really enjoyed taking up the role of the Director, this is because I enjoy being in charge as I love having a vast amount of control over people, as well as creating a positive working enviroment, this was shown greatly throughout the shoot, especially when the cast and crew weren't concentrating as well as when there energy levels needed increasing. Throughout life I have always been a perfectionist and will always accept criticsm with a positive attitude, so I enjoyed receiving feedback from whoever was in charge of watching the relay on how we could possibly improve are thriller.

7.) What problems did you have on the shoot day, how did you solve them ? 

The only main issue we had on our shoot day was at the very beginning where we struggling to come up with an idea for the opening shot, after many different ideas, Matt (our supervisor) then came up with the idea of filming Calum (the lead actor), up from a high angle to which we would be placed on a  piece of electrical equipment filming his body to which eventually his head would then rise. At first we did not feel that this would work but shooting a variety of test shots, we felt it was appropriate especially due to the intensity and mystery which would presented towards the viewers for that sudden urge to see Calum's face.

8.) What part of the shoot do you think was most successful and why ? 

I felt that the day as whole was extremely successful in terms of being able to produce a vast amount of footage, however the most successful moment for me personally, was through one shot sequence where Finn is shown constantly punching Calum in the jaw from the left to right to which goes on for eternity, to which I managed to focus the different directions of the camera through stable footage, to which I then watched, I was very proud as well as the other crew with this sequence as it is very hard to create readable footage when you are constantly jolting the camera.
