My Thoughts on Previous Films made by Robert Clack Students

Alice

This opening sequence of the thriller was made by a Robert Clack student, I enjoyed the film as the storyline was different. There editing was very good, I liked how they changed the colour of the film to red, it made the film seem more suspenseful.

The camera shots flowed very well, they used a variety of different camera shots and angles. In the beginning there was a high angle shot of the girl sleeping, this gave the audience a feeling that someone was watching her. There were close up, high angle, medium shots of the dolls, it was effective as it made the dolls seem alive. There was an extreme long shot of the girls eye this added to the effect that someone was watching her.

They could have used diegetic sounds as it would have made the film more interesting, and the girls voice was weak when she said Alice they could have made it a bit stronger. Besides that the film was interesting to watch.

Till Death Do Us Part

I loved this thriller, the music went well with the scenes, the camera shots were edited smoothly. I liked the scene when the bride and groom were getting changed, because the shots faded well together. While they were getting married the scenes were black and white, this contrasted well with the colour scenes, of the wife paying the hit man and her husband dying.

It made the audience helpless knowing that the husband is going to get murdered. I was quite shocked in the end, when I found out she wanted her husband dead.

They could have used diegetic sounds, when the couple were walking down the aisle I heard someone talking in the background this made the film look unprofessional.

When Summer Ends

This film was good, I like how their summer memories were in black and white, and the other scenes were in colour. Various camera shot were used, long shots when the guy was eyeing up the girl, close up on girls arm, and extreme close up on pictures of his next victim. The music went well with the scene, they could have improved it by not shooting in school. But overall it was fine.
