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

Shot-reverse-shot: Match-on action:

Editing:

180 degree rule:






Looking back at our preliminary task I feel I have learnt a great deal about what goes into the makings of a good film. Before I didn't Know how much thought had to go into each camera shot, angle and movement. I have been able to put into our film all the experience that I have learnt in order to try and make our film as believable and as real as possible.

Within filming I have learnt how to use the equipment and how to manage to use it to my advantage. Each shot that we had story boarded we had to test to make sure that it would look good, if the shot did not fit then we had to change it. I have learnt how to use a shot-reverse-shot we used this within our conversations through the dialogue. By doing this I have learnt that by doing the shot-reverse-shot we are able to capture each of the emotions felt between the characters when they react to what is being said by the other character. This also put the audience into the scene and face the characters emotion with them, this also draws in the audience and gives the audience an emotional tie between the character and audience. Another thing that I have learnt was continuity through the film, in each scene I have had to remember where each characters position is, their facial expression and also the mise-en-scene. This allowed each shot to flow into the next making the movements seem smooth and as if they are happening once as well as real, this was a skill that I have learnt within the progression of filming. To help within the continuity of the film I have also learnt how to improve on the skills of match-on action
