comments on our childrens film.

1. Camera work- are there enough variety of shots, angles, movement? is it steady?
over the shoulder, long shots mostly. always steady. not enough variety of shots.
2a. How well does the sound work? make comments on digetic and non-digetic sound, sound effects, background/ambient sound. Quality of effectiveness at creating mood.
the sound works well, no variety is shown. the backing track suits the target audience. the speech is quick and can be hard to understand.
2b. What opening title sequence conventions can you identify?
the whole clip tells too much information. Tells the story of the whole adventure, although it contains most of the features of the opening sequence.
3a. Comment on all aspects on mise en scene. how smooth is the animation? use of sfx?
great storyline but animation lets it down. Very jumpy and basic. Long pauses that are inappropriate. Characters are cute but their static nature annoys me a bit, but the background could benefit from more colour.
. b. What target audience do you think this is aimed at? age range and why?
. I think that this would go under the 'U' classification because of it's simple, unaggressive nsture and would appeal to the age range of 2-5 or 7 years old children, any older and they would be unamused by the simplicity of the story.
4.

Transitions from shots was quite jumpy. The pace of the editing is quite slow and lots of still images. Editing needed to be faster to keep kids entertained. More movement from characters would have made it more fluent.

Similar to winnie the pooh, like a story book. Ceebeebies, play house disney.
