Peer Review

 For this blogpost I will be reviewing my fellow peers film intros.

Movie clip 1: 5 Letters.

This movie clip was very interesting. From the details in lighting to the details in the transitions and character can easily be scene as well thought out and put together. The dim lighting throughout this film gave meaning to the plot as well, adding to the dark and mysterious demeanor. The movie was enjoyable and a bit comedic at some moments. Over all if i were to rate this clip I would give it a 9 out of 10 simply because how well the directors of this film established and portrayed their theme throughout the clip. The only critics I would have on this film is simply the volume and little tweak to the lighting as well. The volume was a bit low at times and the lighting was almost a bit too dark at some points. Ultimately, it was a very entertaining clip.

Movie clip 2:  Sugar Rush

When regarding using the film elements that we discussed in this class, I personally believe that the group that created this film accurately portrayed the film elements the best out of all the movie clips I have seen so far. From the establishing shot to the minor details in the interview really made this film enjoyable. Details such as the focus onto one of the characters hands really created almost a comedic effect and was one of the highlights in this film. The only critic I had on this film is that although it was enjoyable, it was a bit hard to follow the plot. For instance, it was established early on that a robbery at a gas station had taken place, and they were interviewing locals who had witnessed the crime go on. That was easy to understand; the hard part was trying figure out where the film was going next. After the film was finished, I was informed that it was supposed to be a mocumentary. After receiving that information a lot of the clips, including the ending made a bit more sense. over all, I would rate this movie clip a 8 out of 10.

Movie clip 3: Sunday

This film was by far one of the more interesting films. The elements such as lighting, camera movements and acting made this film very interesting. There was even a few moments where I was genuinely intrigued and even had a jump scare. This film portrayed all the elements of a horror/mystery movie and honestly gets a 10/10 regarding plot and camera movements. A few critics I would have is the lighting, and the volume. The sound was a bit inaudible at times and it made it sort of difficult to understand what the character was saying. The lighting was a bit too dimmed ad it made it sort of hard to actually see the character at certain points in the film. But even with these minor faults, the film was still a great film and gets a 9 out of 10.

Movie clip 4: Up The Score

Out of all the films I believe that this film used the most intricate camera angles. The angles were used correctly and the the sound was clear throughout the film.
