feed back from group

When showing our rough cut, we received some positive and negative areas of our film opening. As it was a rough cut we did not manage to finish the film opening off, so we were missing the titles, the name of the film and a few extra shots we have not included. Some of the feedback we received was:
Negative feedback:
- The overall film opening was too long.
- When the actor was pouring a drink, that carried on for too long and his back was to the camera.
- Some didn't understand the voice over.
- The film opening didn't seem a film with no titles.
Positive feedback:
- That everyone loved the production logo. Thought it was well done.
- The editing of the camera shots was good.
- Sounds used well, E.G dogs barking and gun shot.

Overall as a group we were pleased with the feedback but however some feedback was not so useful. It was great to hear everyone's views on our film opening, to see what we needed to change and edit on quickly. As we got the feedback from the group only three days before the deadline, we had to really act quickly and make a few changes to our film. We managed to film some extra shots when the actor was pouring his drink, this now has made that scene more interesting and not seem so dull and long. We have cut some shots that were unnecessary. This has made the film a little shorter.
Overall the group were pleased with our rough cut as well as ourselves. Adding in the titles and extra shots will really finish this film opening off and make it into a great crime caper opening.
