Dublin Architecture - One Minute Movie

Here's the second of our movie projects with comments from the makers. Enjoy - Liam.

Sendai:

I chose “Dublin’s architecture” because I consider that the shape, material and details of buildings, in general, say a lot about the culture of any city. Moreover, I enjoy art in general. For me, the biggest challenge was recording while it was raining. On the other hand, I liked doing different group activities; I think that it’s a good way to practice my English in real teamwork situations. Finally, maybe I’d improve my video with other snapshots of other symbols of Dublin.

Isabella:

Today my group and I filmed a short movie in Dublin city center. We decided to focus on the architecture in Dublin, which is very different and beautiful. Another point that made me choose this subject was that we needed to made a kind of post card of Dublin - the beauty that Dublin has and can attract tourists. However, I’d have preferred to film some bands that could have been on the street, but because of the time of day we chose not to do that. It was fun to make this movie, first because we planned it all and secondly, the day before we tried to imagine how it’d be step by step. The difficult part was editing, we had a few problems with the computer but it was solved on time. If I could have done it differently, I’d have filmed the guy that was singing on Henry Street and completed the movie with pictures, I’d also have changed the day and the time when we filmed. 

Erika:

I liked this subject because it's interesting to show a small part of Dublin, from a short and funny mini movie. I think it was easy in terms of the location and recording, but in the same way the weather was difficult because it was raining. I enjoyed my team and we cooperated very well, each of us bringing some ideas about the mini movie - it was fun. I think, it would have been different if we had had more time to record and to show more images of Dublin and of course if the day had been sunny. I would do it differently by adding more time and including data of interest or describing all the places in the mini movie.
