Film Studies - Entry 5 (Evaluation)

Overall, I believe our group did a satisfactory job, although several improvements could be done. Honestly, I believe my group didn't put enough effort into the project, especially on the editing part (which is my fault). We should try to be more collaborative as most of the time we did our jobs individually and only talked to each other if we needed to ask about something. While our main shooting went well, we could have improved our interview if we took the time to shoot some cutaways. However, I managed to overcome this by using footages from other sources, but they could have been more relevant. Editing could have started earlier to make the final product better and more polished. I don't think our documentary had anything original about, and we only tried to be creative by placing cutaways of certain things Pak Mark was talking about. I think the aesthetics are OK, but on a technical level, there were some problems, mainly the audio because I was unable to remove the parts where there were distracting/loud sounds, such as car calls, bumping into chairs and tables, and whispering between the cameraman and director.

I believe our documentary could have been much better if we put more effort into it and put our creative ideas into it. In the end, we didn't try to make our final product very good, we only focused on getting it done on time.
