This is the first, rough draft of our film opening.
Evaluation
When we reviewed our first rough draft, we found elements that we like and elements we felt could either be removed or re-ordered. Elements of the opening that we felt worked included the difference in speed between the flashbacks and the present. We needed to create different paces in these separate times to show how his life has gone from busy/action packed to slow/lonely, and we felt we have created this feeling. We are also happy with the framing and movement of the camera on the shots we have included.
To improve, we feel that some of the pans and takes for establishing shots are too quick and too short respectively. We can slow down the shots to resolve this issue so the issue isn't difficult to overcome. Some of the cross-dissolves between establishing shots we feel are too quick also, so they can be slowed to accentuate the slow paced of life for the disabled character.
Titles and sound are to be added for the second draft along with improvements to the rough cut.
