She's the Man Reinactment Task

We were given the assignment of reinacting a scene from any film. We were told the reinactment had to replicate the film scene as

much as possible.I was in a group of four with Han, Muktari and Sibel. We each chosen our roles after Han and I collected and set

up the equipment. Muktari was to be the cameraman, Sibel did sound, Han and I were the directors/producers. We also went on to

do editing.The scene initially seemed straight forward until we realised how many different camera angles/movements/shots there

were to replicate, also the fact that we wanted to receive minimal criticisms as possible for camera work, lighting.We had a few

issues with certain sequences, within our clip there is a shot where the actors heads are cut off and another shot presents the

audience with a shot that was not correctly positioned as there is an vast amount of empty space which could have been avoided

had we perhaps done a medium close up. As well as the actress did not truly fullfil the requirements as she was meant to be

portraying a girl dressed as a boy to attend college, as her was in a long ponytail with a quiff. However her acting more than made

up for that misdemeanour. We also were unable to truly represent the college dorm room as we did not have the same basic

necessities for the desk scene, for in our version of it, it mere looks like an empty-ish desk where as in the original clip the desk has

quite a large amount of books, cds and dvds as well as a couple shelves. The final product was quite a success flaws and all.
