- 4/23 12:24 pm - Editing was spot on and it was a great music choice For a season recap video, it would be nice to include a few final scores from some of the games. The film overlay(0:30-1:16)doesn't really add anything to the overall video and isn't necessary. Overall, good promo!
- 4/17 10:50 am - STORY: Your story effectively communicates unity and teamwork of the volleyball team! SOUND: Great use of sound, especially when the team won a point. Love to hear that excitement from the games! CAMERA: Your camera work uses a range of WS and MS. I do think that there actually is a lack of CUs showing the players’ emotions. And I think for me this took me out of the video. There are so many WS and MS of the players’ reactions after they score points that I would love to see in greater detail. For example: 0:27 - would love to see a CU of this reaction, 0:40 - would love to see CU reaction of player 15, 0:44 - we already saw a CU like this; would be more interesting to see this player’s reaction and face before they actually serve, 1:23 - would love to see CU of player 3’s reaction, 1:25 - would like to see CU of player 11 here, 1:53 - again another CU of player 14 would be great here. I think there is just a lack of CUs. A lot of your shots are great but they are just too repetitive and get boring. For example, your shots are mostly from the same angle - back corner of the volleyball court behind the team. We don’t see any shots from the opposite side of the net/through the net. LIGHTING: Overall your lighting was used effectively. I thought that 0:00 to 0:10 was just slightly too dark. EDITING: Great opening sequence! It goes along with the beat of the song and you actually cut on the beat very well throughout your video. Your editing does show the unity of the team. I like how you incorporated the light leaks to transition from certain shots. I realize that you edited your video to the song, but something to consider for next time is to pick out a shorter song to keep the energy flowing throughout your video. You repeat a lot of the same edits (obviously to cut to the beat of the song) but it just got very repetitive which pulled me out.
- 2/29 8:48 pm - Love the sounds of the cheering when they score and the reactions of the players. Great job demonstrating team spirit and unity!
