In the One Word Film project, we were instructed to make a one-to-two-minute film showing something that could realistically happen in that timeframe to portray our assigned word. The catch was that we could not have any words or dialogue in this project.
My partner and I's approach was well thought out, structured, and planned. We first started with brainstorming ideas for 'bored', our word, and put them in a list. Then while thinking about the different ideas we had and how they would look, we narrowed them down to one. We then wrote down all the shots that would be needed and how they would look on a storyboard.
Once we knew how we wanted our project to look shot for shot, we took pictures of the real setting precisely where we wanted to film. The following class, my partner and I took the clips we needed and started editing on iMovie from our phones since the laptops in the classroom were not running fluidly. We took each shot around 3-5 times and edited the wanted clips of video for every part.
In my analysis of our project, I'd say we could've improved in a few areas not having to do with the editing or idea itself, but with the acting. The main character often looked annoyed instead of bored, which could be misleading while trying to guess the target word. Otherwise, though, I believe my partner and I did reasonably well on our project.
