Final Peer Feedback

Note: Some quotes have been edited to a legible standard.

U2 -55:

1) 'Wide variety of shots such as wide shots, mid shots, long shots, establishing shots and panning shots and tilt shots. these shots were effectively used to create a dark element of suspense we would expect from a thriller.'

2) 'Lots of diegetic sound used such as screams and heavy breathing which creates a dark and unsettling mood.'

3) 'The black and white colour scheme was effective in creating the more depressing mood of the film.'

4) 'There was several fades used which worked effectively and if the shots were a bit shorter the thriller would have more of a suspense element to it.'

5) The most effective element was the camera work. '


U2 - 57:

1) 'Close up - hands touching
     Over the shoulder shot,
     Long shot of walking,
     PoV.'

2) 'Swings squeaking - creepy,
    Dreaming character breathing - PoV.'

3) 'Deserted park and road - helpless.'

4) 'Slow motion, black and white, heavy breathing. Two clips on top of one another - swings. Foggy filter - dream effect.'

5) 'Breathing came in too suddenly, should be more gradual. Use a multitude of  breathing sound whenever the dreamer is walking.'

6) 'Swings and the squeaks.'

U2-58:


1) 'Variety, establishing, close up, PoV. Effective - showed the significance of obects, i.e. teddy bear.'

2) 'Creepy, eerie - worked well with the thriller genre.'

3) 'Realistic night wear. Child's cloths too 'old looking'. Man all in black worked well.'

4) 'Good fades in and out. The swinging of the swing added realism to the dream. Black and white was effective at indicating the dream environment. Slow motion used effectively.'

5) 'Girl not young enough. Sleeping in daylight.'

6) 'Editing made it a very effective production.'

U2-59:


1) 'Long shots,
     Close up,
     Point of View.'

2) 'Eerie music, sounds like swings. Heavy breathing. Worked well because it sounded threatening.'

3) 'Empty playground and desolate street linked into the theme and genre.'

4) 'Double vision on swings.'

5) 'The dreaming man seems too much like an antagonist - appose to a protagonist.'

6) 'The effect on the swings.'
