Evaluation 7

 Our opening sequence was so much better compared to the preliminary task for example, we used very simple shots in the preliminary task and then we was quite adventurous with our opening sequence. we wanted our shots to stand more in the opening sequence and this is because we want to get top marks for the movie. There was a few shots in the opening sequence which stood out for example we had an low angle shot from under the bed which acted like the audience was underneath the bed, experiencing they was more apart of the movie. This shot is very unusual, its not something you would experience in every film. Whereas, for the preliminary task we used an every day shot you would see more often, this is the slight high angle that showed the character had power over the other character, this showed we could use different types of shots to show the power between both characters. This time round the framing, shots and story board was much better.  

As you can see in the two pictures above, they both have titles in the movies. The preliminary task titles wasn't really thought about and was just added into the movie. Where as, in the opening sequence the titles have been thought about and they was their not to take away too much attention. The titles are rather bland in both video's but in contrast they are much better in the opening sequence. We wanted to link the titles to the feeling of the movie at that time, for example after the death in 'Animus' the title was hand written and was messy to show that something isn't right.  

There was a massive improvement in the editing, from the preliminary task to the opening sequence. In the preliminary task the editing wasn't very well done. For example, when using the shot reverse shot in the preliminary task, the shot wasn't very accurate and the door didn't shut completely, then we had to use a sound effect to act as it did, it was very untidy and there was a lot of error's. In contrast to the opening sequence we made sure we was on top of the editing and everything was very accurate. We had a shot of the foot coming to the ground which took a long time to shoot due to getting it correct with the angle, we used a shot reverse shot on this. This went from him walking to you seeing the bottom of his foot to then him splashing in a puddle. It worked very well and was very clear, compared to the preliminary task. The editing was very easy flowing and made a lot of sense in the opening sequence, we thought of different idea's to help us with the shooting.

In the preliminary task there was a lot of error's made, so in the opening sequence we made sure all of the tiny error's was made up for and everything was more accurate.
