Conclusion
After looking at previous student's work, I now have an idea of what level of standard is expected. There are also several EBI points that I will consider during the making of my own video that stand out as problems with the videos and I will ensure that I avoid them. The main points to consider are that there is a clear narrative, a variety of locations, and enthusiastic performers.
The timing of edits and cuts is also extremely important and is part of what made some of these videos so good.
