7.) looking back at your prelimary task, what do you feel you have learnt int the progression from it to the full product?

Looking back at the start of the year, i was not familuar with how to use differnt types of technology or aware of different shots and how differnt shots can portray differnt atmospheres and give the overall film a particualr kind of feel to it, wheather this be a extrem close up showing an uneasy facial expression or a extreme long shot establishing the locationa and setting of the film.

 

 

The first practical thing we did was the preliminary excerisie which i enjoyed filmning. The planning of this consisted of making a script for the two characters for the conversation they were going to be filmed having and the palnning of the location that we filled out aswell as health and safety proceedures.

The prelimanary excersise had to consist of the 180 degree line, shot, revers shot and match on action and also continuty was very important so that the video flowed without jump cuts.

From making the main product i have learnt alot, i have learnt how to use DV camers mainly, but also i have also learnt that you can never have enough shots when editing and to make sure that you have enough to prevent having to go back afterward you have filmed to get some more shots because the film doesn't look right when editied.

I feel i have got better at editing, filming and in my opinon most impoirtantly organising and planning which i think is a key into a sucessful film.

The different methods we have used was to make sure that all of our planning was complete and we were organised before jumping straight into the task. I think that this overall was a sucess because if we had just jumped straight into it without any back ground information ad without been sure on what we was doing  it would of been an absoloute disastar.
