In class we had to assess each others film openings and mine was evaluated by Lizeth.
Mise-en-scene: Gretchen's lack of style shows she can't dress herself which also highlights her geeky appearance. During the makeover scene, the colour dresses Gretchen tried on established the romantic comedic aspect of the film.
Camerawork: I loved the shot where the camera films from Gretchen's point of view as she watches Georgia take her glasses off. I also enjoyed the high angle shot of Gretchen in the pink dress when she spun around, however I think there should have been more shots when she was waiting in the restaurant.
Editing: I think the shots could have been slightly quicker so emphasise the girly genre, on the other hand, I liked the use of the clockwork fade out so illustrate the passing of time. The fade outs of the titles made the whole film flow smoother.
Sound: I love the choice of music as it is upbeat and jolly, I also enjoyed the contrast from happy to sad as it makes the audience feel sympathetic for Gretchen in that moment.
