Judge 1
Positives: -I like the creativity of all the different shots -Nice job trying to capture every moment that happened
Improvements: -try to use a tripod next time to help with shaky shots -try to avoid quick zoom ins/outs. it can be very jarring to the viewer
Judge 2
Positives: The long shots of the action on the floor worked very well. Felt like you were there. The audio was good and made the audience feel like they were actively participating.
Improvements: Camera shots needed to be more steady and not so jumpy. Directing need more advanced planning so it didn't feel so lost and chopped up.
Judge 3
Positives: - Good job by the director and cameras of staying with the action. There was a lot happening here in a very short amount of time, but you presented it in a way that was easy for the viewer to see and follow.
Improvements: - The handheld camera often released its shot/dipped to the floor while still live. As a director make sure you are being clear with your cues on when a camera is or is not live, and as a camera operator it's always a good idea to wait an extra half-second after the director calls a take command for another camera just to make sure it's actually happened. - Always try to keep your handheld camera on the same side of the action as your up cams. In this case the handheld was on the opposite side of the rope, so when you cut back-and-forth it flipped which side of the shot the same people were on. This becomes visually disorienting to your viewer. This concept is called the "Line of Axis" rule (or 180-degree rule) and is very important to be aware of as both a director and camera op.
