After receiving the questionnaires from the audience of my EXP video, my doubts about it were confirmed. After I had finished editing my video I watched it back and couldn't help but think it looked rushed and boring. My original plan was to have at least three actors playing a game but one actor couldn't get round my house so I had to settle for two actors and because I didn't get as much footage as I wanted, I had to recycle some of the footage and use some of Nathan's in game footage because I couldn't upload mine. Because of this, the end product looked very rushed and lacked the level of action I originally wanted. If I had a second chance, I would have ensured that I had more reliable actors and my own in game footage so I could match my original vision. I also would have spent more time planning the shooting and would have tried to film more footage so I would have more to choose from.
Also, when the gamers died I would have preferred it to be more exciting and also would have liked it to fit in better with the other footage.
Although I didn't match my original plan, I liked some parts; I think the post production went well even though it was rushed and I didn't get the chance to add music, I still managed to salvage my video.
Overall I don’t feel like my video was as good as it could or should be but it could have been worse. If I got another chance I would make some big changes and I would have spent more time planning, that way I wouldn’t have to rely on the post-production work so much and it wouldn’t have been so rushed.
