Rejected Shots

After filming, we saw some shots were slightly unbalanced, due to problems with the tripod not allowing a smooth panning shot. We established that these shots were not of a high enough quality for the film, so therefore we chose not to include them. Moreover our aim was to make our film look as professional as possible, therefore we took into consideration how often we had seen scenes where the camera wasn't sturdy in real films, and the only time that we'd seen this occur was during a point of view shot. However, point of view shots are seldom seen in professional films, unless the whole film is in that style, apart from, for example, in the shower scene in 'Psycho' which is from the murderer's perspective. For our rough cut, we used mostly static shots, which therefore looks more professional.

This shot too was rejected, as the lighting was completely wrong, and it was difficult to recognise what is happening.
