For my response project for the Merchant of Venice, Sage, Francesco, Xander and I created an alternate ending to the Merchant of Venice Court Scene. We filmed the court scene at my house, and we changed the ending of the story.
I feel like the movie went really well. We spent a long time recording and putting it together and it was really great to see the final product. When we finished putting the movie together, it was longer than I expected it to be. I think the court scene was a bit long for the final length of the movie and the other parts were somewhat short. When writing the script these other scenes seemed that they would be an adequate length, but in the final video I thought they could have been longer. I really enjoyed making the movie and would definitely do it again. Editing the movie was time consuming, but I also really enjoyed doing this. I plan to look for more opportunities doing this in the future.
I hope that you do! Short films are definitely time consuming, but if you prepare well and work hard on them, they are really something that you can be proud of and have a lot of fun doing. Pro-tip: check your shots! :D
