Comparing Previous A2 Short Films to the Mark Scheme - Screening 3

Paradise Found - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8pdZVYXX21A

Against the mark scheme, I graded this as a Level 4 piece gaining 38 marks. The films itself went against convention, which we only realised once the film had finished, so this meant during there was some confusion as to what was going on and what would happen next.
The camera angles used were great, they showed good attention to framing and there was close attention to mise-en-scene, which was heavily important in the first few scenes because it enabled the audience to get a clear picture of the characters personalty, which was key because the film was a silent film. This being said, there was the odd camera angle that could have been improved, such as when we are shown an over-the-shoulder of the 'artist' holding a letter up, a closer view would have been better and documented the film more. The editing was smooth and clear, and there was not problems with the continuity of the storyline.
I liked how they had focused on aspects of scenes; for example at 3:53, the focus from the Impossible Bottle to the 'artist'.
