Research task 3 - analysis of a previous group's work

I have chosen to analyse AS set 2's group 6.
Their blog really stood out to me from the beginning as their background was lighter and brighter than many other groups' blogs.

Their post titled 'Task 54 - Evaluation Q7' is particularly good because of the way in which it sets out text versus images - the usage of images between text in almost an article format and GIFs used to show more than one image instead of taking up more space on the post make it stand out.
The text is clearly structured into paragraphs and titles are highlighted in purple to make them easier to find. The descriptions themselves are detailed, but don't go on for too long.

I think that their title sequence is a good one because, even right from the beginning when showing the idents they make me feel that they are professionals. The background music and the introduction compliment each other.
The use of worm's eye view is heavily implemented and cleverly used to fit with the theme of a refugee travelling.
The group use effects such as slowing the speed of their film and cutting two sets of film together and fading one out to show that the main character's daughter is gone.
They create a powerful distinction between the woman's faith and identity previously versus that of how she dresses in modern London with use of props which don't fit the colour scheme of one scene or props that rely on the audience to connect them with the main character's identity instead of explaining them aloud.
