Evaluation So Far, Need of completion

Evaluation:

In evaluation to my preliminary task I will look at the 5 following questions I have been asked:

1) What shots have you used? Why have you used them? What meaning do they create?
I have used a number of shots, the first being the establishing shot, to help show the audience the world, and create a verisimilitude within the digesis.
The following shot is a medium shot, this helps us introduce the character and begin to use Representation (Stuart Hall).
From the point of introduction of the character, up to any action taking place, medium close ups are used; once the ball is dropped within the scene different shot types are used to help create the sense that the ball has been dropped and is moving.
An eye line match of the ball being dropped, then followed by an extreme close up of the reaction to the ball being dropped helps create this.
Throughout the clip occasional close ups are used to help outline importance to what the close up is of, and finally a series of two shots are used to show the finalised deal of giving the ball back.

2) What is good about your video, and why do you think it is good?
I think our video is good because it uses a variety of shot types and that the transitions are very smooth and follow on well from one another despite the change in camera location.
I think this is good because it makes the clip appear much more professional and keeps the audience interested; instead of keeping the camera in one spot for a shot.

3) What is bad about your video, and why do you think it is bad?
The faults with the video are
