My topic is define a space. My partner and I found the Thomas Hunter Hall really interesting, especially the basement floor. We wanted the style to be somewhat creepy with suspense. We organized the story by me falling asleep in a classroom and waking up in a different space not knowing what happened. Then I followed a trail to a creepy ceramics room. We discovered each other in between while exploring the place. At the ending, we both woke up in a classroom again because it was all a dream.
I used most of our footage because we planned each of our frames. We didn't really experiment with different angles nor shot sizes, but instead kept them consistent. The one effect I used was in the beginning where the classroom setting transitioned to the Thomas Hunter Hall setting. I used the dissolve effect to make it look like a dream so there's that. I used the rewind effect when I was going down the stairs. I thought it made it look interesting and questionable. I also speed up some frames to keep it precise.
There is definitely room for improvement for this project. I feel like we could have experimented more with shot sizes and angles. I could have also managed to keep some shots shorter in duration. There were some frames that were not necessary. I liked what I did with the editing but I feel like it could be improved as well. I felt like if there was audio it would've been more intriguing. However, I liked the challenge of video only.
