Critisism

One main weakness of our thriller opening was the title. It was filmed by moving the camera over the newspaper headline, and then putting a negative filter over the top so it could 'flash'.

This could have been a more effective title if we had taken more time to make it look more professional; we could have made an actual title on Final Cut Pro so it wouldn't have looked so rushed.

Also, the actual camera movement was quite shaky because it was handheld. This was a difficult shot to film because the camera had to be held over the newspaper facing down, so it made it quite awkward to hold.

To prevent the unsteady movement, we could have used something to slide the camera along on. In addition, we could have stuck the newspaper to the wall so it would have been easier to film and the camera would have been easier to hold.
