1. Analysing Previous Students WorkBy Hafsah Zaman 12.6 2. The EdgeGENRE - ACTION 3. Strengths The editing of the opening of their film presented juxtaposition to establish that themain character was being chased by two men. The positioning of the main characters head and where he is looking also helpedthe audience the establish who he was being chased by as the men then walk inthe opposite direction to which the boy is looking. The non-diegetic music creates tension as it builds up gradually and it alsochanges half way through to suit the scene which is being shown. There are loads of longer shots on the main character throughout this createstension as if the audience are waiting for something to happen. The lighting is quite dull and dark throughout this is to create an atmosphere forthe movie and it may also create tension too. The use of fading is used when the scene fades to black and then lights back upagain this is something done during the editing process to make it seem moreeffective. 4. Weaknesses The use of lighting was dark and it may have been dark for a reason butit sometimes made it hard to establish what is actually on the screen. Italso made it look a bit black and white. The acting of the characters was a bit weak in places but the fact thatthere was no dialogue is a way around it The font of the title was not clear enough and a bit confusing as itlooked a bit illusionistic. The film was slightly out of focus in parts but it was in focus for themajority of the film. 5. AngelDustGENRE - THRILLER 6. Strengths Good use of editing 12
