Hey,
Question 7;
Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?
Looking back at our preliminary task I can see a huge improvement not only on our project but also our group atmosphere and our ethics.
To start, we grew as a group, some of us did not know each other at the beginning of the course and of course this made it hard to communicate with each other at the beginning and we found it hard to get our point across and make sure we all ha a say in what was going on. I am guilty for this as I took the responsibility of the filming and a predominate amount of the editing as I was familiar with it. After speaking with my teachers I made the decision to let the rest of the group help out as well and not take all of the work on my shoulders. This worked out when we started our real task as we where all able to work on the project and excel in what we do best.
We have also improved in our editing skills. In the prelim the some of the shots were too quick and interfered with the continuity of the piece. We also used a phone camera to film our prelim instead of a camera which of course effected the quality of our footage. This was a good lesson to learn that we used my canon camera from home to record the real thing. The quality was much better than before and I believe that this would be the first big difference anyone would see when comparing the two.
Additionally we also learnt a lot amount the significance of camera angles and shots and how they can enhance, change and develop a scene. We learnt about new angles that we could use in our opening and how we can use them to represent certain emotions and scenarios. We used camera angles and shots a lot in outtalk to help portray the characters emotions and well as help tell the story.
Lastly we learnt how to use certain fonts and music that goes well with the movie. We had to improve on our audio largely since our prelim, as the voice over we used was sloppy, inaudible and all together not that great to listen to as it overpowered the rest of the scene and ruined the viewing experience. We needed to find a song that wasn't copyrighted which of course the song that we used for the prelim was in 'The Hunger Games' and therefore copyrighted.
The preliminary task was extremely important and a learning curve for us as we learnt to not make the same mistakes and it also helped us make our up to date task the best that is could be. We learnt about the importance of lighting, camera angles and miss en scene can bring to enhance a scene or shot and help develop the story.
