Single Camera Drama 'Love At First Sight'

Single Camera Drama Evaluation:

My short film see's me falling in love with Mahan, at the first sight. It shows me inside the classroom doing some work on the computer. At this point the image is in black and white the show 'my' life before meeting him (dull and gloomy). However when it gets closer to me meeting him the image turns in to colour to anticipate the next shots and also to link the contrasting background colours to 'my' feelings. As I head of out of the classroom (2nd location) I walk into Mahan, heading in. Our eyes meet and become inseparable for the remainder of the shot. Next, we cut to an elliptical edit of Mahan and I on our knees picking up some pieces of paper from the floor. This is of course suggest that we bumped into each other later on that day. There is the non-diejectic sound of Whitney Houston s- I will always love you playing in the background. I ran back, in an slow motion effect to find Mahan and came to the realisation that he's gone, and the my reaction it seems somewhat forever. I throw my papers up in the air in a wide shot and begin to spin around in a zoom, close up as the camera pans around me.

I really enjoyed making this video. The two things that I could have done better and will try and work on for future projects would be to; get the work done as soon as it's set and stop the procrastination which is seem to be making a habit of. I need to focusing on the pre-production and concentrate on the post.
