For my short film, I chose a social realist inspired by films directors such as Ken Loach, Andrea Arnold. I watched a range of films, including many from the Short Of The Week website, to glean information for my own production. In terms of camera work, I was inspired by shots in films such as ‘Fish Tank’, ‘I, Daniel Blake’, ‘ Augusta, Gone’ and also music videos such as Hozier’s ‘Take Me To Church’ and Sia’s ‘Chandelier’ as my film is about a dancer. In the social realist genre, editing tends to focus very much on continuity and creating verisimilitude through long-held shots, often stabilized hand-held shots, sometimes similar to a documentary style. Therefore I emulated these techniques in my own work. For social realism, it was vital that I established a credible mise-en-scene with costum...
Audience feedback has been crucial to the overall effectiveness of my short film. Throughout the whole process I have adapted and changed my ideas from what my audience had to say. In order to receive the most effective feedback I targeted an audience of the same age range and demographic that I was aiming my film at, which was males and females between 16 - 29. Pre-Production My first major part of audience feedback was during the planning stages of my film, where I was able to skype with a professional film director.

I think it's going to be a Romantic Mystery but also with elements of thriller and edginess thrown in. I have many ideas, such as maybe making it a short documentary on someone famous, like a kidnapper or making more mystery than thriller. I'm unsure on what I what. So I'm doing some research into short films made by professionals to see what I like best. However an alternative Genre I recently stumbled across was 'experimental'. I've never explored this before so it's interesting to watch some of the work on it. Some short films of this genre: I really like this one, in terms of talking but also how the sounds work with the speech. The different clips put so cleverly together shows how it's someone's work of art. This concept I like, as the edginess and individualism of this piece makes it easy to watch. This again is an interesti...
