Evaluation Activity 7 - Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learned in the progression from it to full product?

I feel that the preliminary task has made me more confident, I have learnt a lot since our preliminary task. I am able to use the compute software and camera equipment with confidence. While doing the preliminary task i learnt the basics of using the video camera, i feel more confident as i know what the camera features and how to use it when doing a certain shot or shooting. I can now decide on how to shoot shots (for example, the distance and the width). Our main issue to stick with, for the preliminary task was 180 degree rule. We included match on action while filming our preliminary task.

In our opening sequence we was able to stick to the 180 degree rule, because we learnt about it in the preliminary task i was able to take my knowledge to the our opening sequence. The opening sequence had a lot of thinking put into to make it look professional. By knowing the features that came on the camera and software we knew what we was going to do to take it to perfection.

For the preliminary task we had to improve on the sounds as the music was too loud and didnt match to the video. So to improve the sounding in the preliminary task we used Freemusic.com, we found this also helped us with the sounding to our movie. We found music which helped us bring tension to the film. The music and sound effects we added to the preliminary task was appropriate music.
