Video Project Evaluation - Question 7

Q7. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

A7. From the preliminary task I gained a feeling that I could quickly and effectively make a film sequence in a short space of time, even though I filmed the preliminary task ‘on my feet’ as you would say the small amount of planning and storyboarding I did beforehand was very valuable to me, and when it came to my project I spent more time thinking about shots and planning than I would have before i had done the preliminary task. The preliminary task also gave me knowledge of Continuity editing: 180 degree rule, eye-line match, shot- reverse shot. Framing, shot types, angles etc, these skills as well as the post production editing that I got to grips with in the preliminary task let me improve my skills when it came to the full project and the creation of Caspian. I have also leant a lot more about target audiences and the demographics viewers and how the target audience you are aiming to please substantially effects the type of film you make. The biggest feeling I have to do with the project is the extreme learning curve that I have followed, from the single afternoon filming shoot I did for my film for the preliminary task to the massive amount of time spent undertaking production and post production of Caspian.
