Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product? question 7

Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?



From the preliminary task to now i feel that there has been a significant amount of progression from the two products 



I have learnt how to use cross cutting and editing efficiently when creating my preliminary task when i used the cross cutting technique it was not smooth nut jarred as a black screen appeared in between the two different scenes . when creating the flash back i created the fading effect to avoid the jarring and to make it seem more realistic . 
when we filmed the conversation between the two ladies in the preliminary task we had to consider the 180 degree rule and we had to use the over the shoulder shot to show the dialogue between the two characters effectively

prelim shot list and script 


prelim story board 






When creating our preliminary task we had to create a shot list and a story board  when we were creating our final product we learnt that our shot list had to be more thorough as well as the story board so that we were able to follow the shot list and the story board more accurately then we did with our preliminary task 



































screen shots from my prelim task
In my preliminary task i used soundtracks that had already been created / made when making or editing my footage for the final product i used garage band to create the soundtrack  because i wanted the soundtrack to fit the footage substantially i edited the soundtrack whilst watching the edited  footage if any amends were made to the footage i would have to make amends to the sound track  this was essential as i wanted to create tension in significant parts for example when he began taking the documents off the wall the music changed slightly and when he was packing the music built up. when i was creating my preliminary task i did not think of these options i added music that i thought would  fit the mood i did not think of a change in dynamics or tempo .


When we filmed the preliminary task there was no use of a dolly or the tripod; we filmed  free handedly when filming are final product we learned new skill in using the tripod and the dolly how to create different levels and angles and the use of panning from left to right .


when filming the preliminary task we had to consider continuity; we additionally had to consider this factor whilst filming our final product we improved in this factor by keeping things the same; whereas in the preliminary task we had to re film several times, because one of the characters did not carry the book in the right hand; small details like that can affect the continuity of the sequence . So we learned from that experience so that we did not have to re- film several times as it would become a time consuming process.
