Self Assessment of Adobe software and camera equipment - Practise Run

What are you doing?
This video shows our practice run of using the camera equipment, we got to know how the camera works. 
The following, I have listed some strengths, weaknesses, and targets for the next video we make as an evaluation:

Strengths
  • I found the camera equipment relatively easy to use.
  • Understanding of the camera usage(buttons etc.) .
  • Interesting 23 seconds of footage.
  • Good use of film title at the end, audience will more likely to remember it.
Weaknesses
  • The  microphone seemed very quiet and it was difficult to film with it because we had to do close up shots in order to hear the person speaking.
  • No Storyline - Random shots.
  • Camera does not catch the best picture, so the person who was holding it needed to be very steady.
  • Actors are not fully in role(at the end).
Targets
  • Use a wider variety of shots.
  • Plan a storyboard before filming - to have a rough idea of what we are going to do.
  • Steady hands for the camera person.
  • Take a number of takes if needed to make sure actors have been in role.
