S.W.O.T Annalysis

S.W.O.T analysis for super.
As a group, Tim, Liam and myself worked quite well together, although Tim and I did most of the work, Liam did do what he could when we weren’t taking control. Liam and Tim actually did most of the camera work as I was on screen a lot of the time. They both let me write the script and I think we were all happy with the outcome. I think the editing went really well, I put it all in the order I wanted it in, and then Tim and Liam edited the finer parts.
I think we only had about two weaknessess, and that would be actors, as they kept on dropping out or not getting back to us (that was the reason i played one of the parts was because the guy we had lined up never called back and when we phoned him he wouldnt answer). The other weakness would be how lazy we became during the later stages of editing, when we had a rough cut, we left it or a couple of days and didnt really do anything to improve it untill the ;ast week, if we had bothered to go out and film the intro we might have grabbed a distinction, but due to our lazieness we walked away with a merit.

script anotation

INT TAXI, MOVING - LATER
TIM removes the Walkman from around his neck, opening his attache
case.
TIM
I hate to complain -- I really do -
about the trash, the garbage, the
disease, about how filthy this city
really is and you know and I know that
it is a sty...

TIM places the Walkman in the attache case and pulls out today's
New York Post, opening it up.

PATRICK (V.O.)Oh... my... god.
TIMIn one issue -- in one issue -- let's
see here...

PATRICK (V.O.)Please... shut up.
TIM
...strangled models, babies thrown
from rooftops, kids killed in the
subway, a Communist rally, mafia boss
wiped out, Nazis-

TIM flips through the pages excitedly...
TIM (CONT'D)-baseball players with AIDS, more
mafia shit, gridlock, the homeless,
various maniacs, faggots dropping like
flies in the streets, the cancellation
of a soap opera, surrogate mothers...
and the joke is, the punch line is,
it's all in this city - nowhere else,
just here, it sucks, whoa wait, more
Nazis, gridlock, baby-sellers, black-
market babies, coma baby, hot water
burns baby, AIDS babies, bridge
collapses-
 


TIM stops, catching his breath.  He notices something through the
window...

TIM's POV:
A HOMELESS PERSON begs for change on a street corner.TIM (O.S.)That's the twenty-fourth one I've seen
today.  I've kept count.
