Marking Criteria For Video

I've posted this marking criteria to help me in understanding more clearly the things I have to do when it comes to filming. It is written in a vague yet helpful way, and will help me as a guidance in what I should be doing. I have put both the criteria and grade boundaries for the C-D and A-B grade. I feel that I could aim and fulfill the higher grades and am working at the C-D criteria. The marking criteria for these grades are as follows:


Level 3        36–47 marks     Grades C-D
There is evidence of proficiency in the creative use of many of the following technical skills:

• holding a shot steady, where appropriate;
• framing a shot, including and excluding elements as appropriate;
• using a variety of shot distances as appropriate;
• shooting material appropriate to the task set;
• selecting mise-en-scène including colour, figure, lighting, objects and setting;
• editing so that meaning is apparent to the viewer;
• using varied shot transitions and other effects selectively and appropriately for the task set;
• using sound with images and editing appropriately for the task set;
•  using titles appropriately.

Level 4      48–60 marks       Grades A-B

There is evidence of excellence in the creative use of most of the following technical skills:

• holding a shot steady, where appropriate;
• framing a shot, including and excluding elements as appropriate;
