Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
Issues with the Preliminary tasks
Audio proved to be an issue in my Preliminary task.
Acting was not professional
Moderate Camerawork
Lack of Editing
Basic use of titles
'Zer0' Examples of improvement.
Research into an un copyrighted soundtrack which matches the action of the piece, which was timed to perfection.
Josh Slack the actor in my piece is studying A Level Drama, allowing me a professional approach in terms of character portrayal.
When filming I used a tripod making the shots more solid.
I made sure to use a wide range of editing techniques in my piece to meet the exact mark criteria, the film editing program provided me with the necessary tools to do as such.
For my final film I downloaded a font to meet the with the conventions of the thriller genre. I also timed the titles so the action onscreen wasn't obstructed.
Skills I have improved on:
For my final piece I used a variety of shots, high-low angle shots, medium shots and close ups etc.
After developing my skills in the preliminary task and throughout the research process, I honed certain camera skills which helped me perfect a selection of tracking camera shots. My insight into the technical side of things has also been improved. Originally I couldn't dream of making that kind of company logo, but with using the iMacs for such a long process I picked up certain skills.
Throughout the process making my film I used a selection of media documents eg. Scripts, Storyboards and Shooting Schedules. This proved to be really quite useful by getting perfect continuity and highlighting the plot.
