Production Blog: Peer Review


 After yesterday, my short film was all finished. I thought it was good and I was very satisfied. However, I needed to make sure it was as good as I thought. I started thinking how I could make sure it was good. I came up with the idea to ask a peer for review. I knew this peer had to be unbiased and truthful. So I asked an acquaintance who would have no reason to lie. I asked the peer and they ended up saying yes. I sent them over the film and asked them what they thought. It took them a couple days but they ended up responding. The information they responded with ended up being very valuable. They sent over some criticism and things they liked about the film. I looked through the message and carefully examined what they criticized. Luckily, all the criticism ended up being things I could fix through editing and I didn’t have to re-shoot. They had a lot of positive things to say about the film as well. This means the film was as good as I thought. I decided to fix all negative things the next day. I kept the message so I would remember what to fix. This was a very good idea and will really benefit my short film. Very glad this idea came to me.

  Short film 9 begins with a very dark and ominous setting. We noticed quickly that the genre was very similar to the action genre and contained a lot of its aspects. The entire film was an action / thriller. There were multiple jump scares and fight scenes . There was lots of dark imagery as well as lots of C GI like a typical action movie. The plot of the film was short obviously, due to it being a s hort film the viewer is thrown into the beginning to the middle of a longer story . It follows the character 9 as he seeks vengeance for his friends and defeats the monster who once killed his old friends. There is truly little character development, but an example is in the beginning the character 9 was scared but now he is brave .  Sound effects are a big part of the short film as there is no dialogue, however there are many unique sound e ffects and loud crashes which are conventional in the action genre . There were lots of aspects that made the full-length fi
