The previous year of IB have got their results back for IB film studies and so we now know what films they made last year received top-marks and so we watched the film that received top marks so we could see what sort of aspects we need to take into account when making our films so as to receive top marks.
At the start of their film the group have shown a home-video, so from the cinematography the video is hand-held as it is meant to be filmed from someone recording a home video and so for this to be realistic the camera needs to be hand-held as it is to appear natural. The camera then changes to a over the shoulder shot of the person who is watching the film, the way this is done is interesting as it introduces us to what is one of the main characters and also shows us that they are in some way connected to this video so the camera work is quite interesting here.
There are also interesting shots using mirrors and the composition of the shot is done very well, the shot is framed so we can see the room in which the girl is in, but we are in the room that she is walking in to and so the actor walks into the action rather than the camera following the actor all the time, the actor then walks past the camera and we are then filming her through the mirror which again adds other shots in to make it interesting to watch.
There are also some more shots of the actor walking into the action, with forgeround and background being used. The camera is set with some bushes beside it and so these take up the corner of the screen in the forgeround, the actor then walks into the scene in the background, walking into the foreground.
There are also many extreme close-ups used, extreme close-ups of the actor walking along the leaves in the snow that looks really nice as it is again another angle to view the film from.
In this film I liked all the shots using forgeground and background with the actor walking into the action rather than the the camera always following the actor.
