Episode 2
The camera man loves to take establishment shots at school after he shows the Shelton University logo which is good and stops at a few students playing basket ball at the court then fades out and fades in to the actual scene. The camera man was a bit shaky in all the scenes. The scene where there was dialogue between Sherry and Sean at school, the camera man did not leave much head room on screen though the normal shot and close up shots taken infront and behind their bench was good. The scene where Pauline witnesses a man being shot there were echoes. I dont know if they were intentional/part of the scene or it just occured.
Episode 3
The camera man took a wide angle shot of Arnold, Lisa and Sherry and George while they were sitted a bit further at the back.I guess he must have stood at a right angle to capture the four characters together. I could see both Lisa and Arnold enjoying themselves while Sherry and George were busy at the back. When the wide angle shot was taken Sherry and George's area was a bit dark but when the camera man gave us a close up of the two some light was illuminated upon them and it created a mood. There were over the shoulder shots while Rita was being warned by Edna and still could see a small portion of Rita's head at a long shot.
Episode 4
The main part which caught my eye was the silhouette that was captures by the camera man when Pauline turned behind and saw a person standing before her. Pauline and her daughter were the only ones who could be seen but the other person was dark creating a silhouette.
Episode 5
In this episode i thought the close ups were too much in that if it was the normal close up it would be up to the shoulder but this time the camera man cut up to the neck like in the scenes where Chris and Edna were talking intimately. The scene where pauline met a mysterious person who happens to be the husband. They repeated the silhouette then they cut to where there was tilting up of the camera to reveal the person. The same also happened for Goerge and Sherry. The camera man at times was shaking. There was some little light that hit Pauline's husband on his skin and clothes while he was being tortured while the ones torturing were a bit darkened.
Episode 6
In this episode most of the scenes took place at the after party at Rock City gardens. The panning was good and a long shot was used while panning then a quick zoom in two a few people dancing then panning again. i was able to see people dancing by the pool. The scene where Sherry is canoodling with George in a room, i was able to spot shadows of the two. Head room was not left during that scene. the fight that happened between Sean, George and Arnold, the camera man was again shaking which looked like he was involved in the fight too. the panning was too fast between them. the accident scene was marvelous!!!!Sean and Melissa were arguing then suddenly a big light approached them and it faded to black while a loud bang followed, at the same time...which made me imagine that they had a serious accident.
Episode 7
The over the shoulder shot while using the long shot seemed to have worked in this scene where Rita talks to her Father...because he is tall and she is short so i was able to see him. It was also applied when the doctor was telling both Rita and her Father about the current state of Sean and i was able to see him in the space left between Rita and her father. the long shot of the Hospital hallway showing everyone that was sitted outside was a good thing because evrubody was dispersed; they were not all together.
Episode 8
The camera man uses following when Sean wakes from his bed and goes to Melissa's room. The panning between Sean's Dad, Sean and Melissa's Father is too quick during the exchange of words maybe it was to bring out the angry mood around the scene. There was also a wide angle shot of Sean, his dad and Melissa's dad while they stood beside her bed.
Episode 9
I liked the normal shot that was taken when Patricia was talking to Arnold. Atleast the camera man did not shake too much. The headroom was ok and also the Lead room that is during that conversation. The close up shot of Patricia picking the phone and talking to Lisa was ok compared to other times where peoples necks would be cut. I liked the tracking of Melissa as she goes to board her plane.
Episode 10
The is an arial shot of Lisa coming entering the hallway and finds her grades posted on the notice boards while people crowd to discuss them. The camera man tries to follow her while taking the arial shot i guess from the stairs but he is a bit shaky which didnt make it look quality. Lisa comes up the stairs and the camera man still follows her untill she stops. Then it cuts to an arial shot taken from the ground at Lisa and Patricia arguing halfway up the stairs. While taking Lisa speaking it would cut to an arial shot taken from the top and when Patricia speaks it would cut to an arial shot taken from the ground.The scene where Sean and Melissa seek help from George's father was a bit problematic. There was lighting yes considering it was a dark place, but i could see George's shadow alot. The head room during that scene was nowhere and Sean's topmost head kept being cut.
