Preliminary Exercise - Drug Deal Gone Bad

In our preliminary exercise we decided to portray a drug deal. We used a range of shots, including; a pan, a static shot, longshot and a close up. At the end we were forced to do a handheld shot (a steadycam would have been useful here) to film the camera shot. Despite being a relative success there was one editing mistake after the the door, there was an accidental jump cut which is not part of continuity editing.
From this I have learnt that when making a movie, to make sure the editing is done to perfection, and to make sure that we don't cut different shots too short; such as the door handle shot in the video.
Another mistake is the drug dealer's head is cut off in some of the scenes.

The sound cannot be heard very clearly, as we did not have proper sound equipment. When we make our thriller, we will be sure to use proper sound equipment.

Also the Mise en Scene in this video is all wrong, why would a drug deal be taking place in a classroom in broad daylight? Also the drug addict does not look like a drug addict based on the clothes. When we film our thriller we will try harder to get the Mise en Scene perfect.

In conclusion, this video despite its flaws, has taught us from some of our mistakes, to make a better film.
