animal head short video

This is my final edited copy of my short video , i think that this turned out quiet well for a first try at filming and using editing software . but there are things that I would change if I did this again. when doing panning shots I would try and keep the camera from shaking , this I found as difficult and in the scene of the tree top you can see the shake slightly and I think that this rewins the shot because it takes the focus of the tree tops and only focus on the shake of the camera.  i would also take more footage and experiment with a wider variety or shots , lighting and different location . I will do this because i think that this would make the video more interesting and also give more variety when blending the short choppy scenes together.

overall i do think the idea behind the video has turned out really well and the creepy surreal feeling is shown clearly in this with using the lighting and composition . i especially like the lighting with the model and the animal head where the studio lighting gives a split lighting effect  , which then makes the head seem to be appearing from the dark and shadows giving a really creepy feeling to the video. 

to edit this i stuck to my original plan and only used basic editing and i only used the cutting tool to cut the individual clips down and edited the levels slightly to change the lighting. i wanted to do this so i could focus on using in camera and lighting to create my film. when i make my next film though i will use more advanced editing so that i can practice with the adobe premiere program to make more advanced films to a more professional standard.
