What Did People Say About My Film?
Overall, the feedback was overwhelmingly positive. People seemed to enjoy the editing many people used, like the smooth cuts from scene to scene, the uses of the elements of design incorporated into the film, and the way the tempo of the actions increased as the plot got more intense. I agree with them, and think that they payed good attention to the film as to analyze it properly

What Did I Do Best?
I think that even though my role was more of an actor rather than the director, my group still worked well with my ideas and offering their own to create a film that I believe was pretty good. I liked the way I edited my film and the way I incorporated the elements of design into my shots as we went along.

What Did My Classmates Say I Did Well?
For the most part, my classmates said that the film did a good job with transitions between scenes, the music my group used to enhance the actions, the shot types, especially the over the shoulder and two person shots, the tempo, and the acting.

What Do I Think I Can Improve On?
I personally believe that the consistency of the film, like the random outfit changes in certain scenes (It's harder than you think to wear leggings everyday), could be improved to increase the believably of the story. I also thought that at certain places near the end the tempo could be slowed down slightly to give the audience the feeling of a resolution.

What Did My Classmates Think I Could Improve On?
For the most part, most of the comments were positive, but my classmates agreed that the consistency of the film could be improved due to the random outfit changes, and maybe making the plot a little bit clearer towards the end because its hard to tell what is happening with the resolution.

I think one thing I did well on during this project was working well with my group to create a decent film. I liked how we used different shots types to convey different feelings to the audience. I believe that the consistency of the film could be improved again, but that's more of a personal issue that shouldn't affect the overall meaning of the film.

Late to Class

Reflection:
1. Camera movements, like the point of view shot and over the shoulder shot, help the view feel certain emotions that the characters may be feeling, or to create the feeling that they are with the characters. We used the point of view shot to convey chaos and uncertainty with the viewer as I was running down the hallway.
2. Film makers use camera angles to convey emotion with the viewer and to show different point of views within the scene.
3. If I had to redo this film, I would take more time to plan out the scenes, and be more focused on the our work. I think we had a lot of success working together and helping each other when problems were presented.
