Draft Video

Reflection and Evaluation of Draft Video

Here is the link to our two versions of the draft video because we had two editors.

Version 1:

Version 2:

In the end, based on a group consensus and our teacher's opinion, we decided to use version 1 because it overall had better use of B-roll footage and was more sophisticated. 

Even though I reviewed the video with the editor before the deadline, we received feedback from our teachers outlining a few strengths and weaknesses that it had. 

Strengths:

- Had all the required elements

- The information sequence fit really well with the voiceover and was well-made

- The filming and camera work for the public opinion surveys was done well

- Interesting opening sequence

- Voiceover was clear

Weaknesses:

- Crackling music in the opening doesn't fit well

- The sound was sometimes too loud in the public opinion surveys- needs to be moderated

- Background music was sometimes too loud in the voiceovers

- Include an extra bit outlining the direct service bokashi we did

- B-roll footage was mostly sourced from the internet

Therefore, we took these points for improvement and worked on changing these couple of bits for the final edit of the documentary.
