Evaluation 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 the beginning of this media course our preliminary task went better than I thought it would have done, we sorted everything out in terms of filming relatively quickly and took about one day although we had to re-film some parts on another day due some errors we made by breaking the 180 degree rule, we fixed this quickly and effectively, there was also a problem with our match on action shot which didn’t go as well as we hoped so we also had to re-film this at a different stage but got sorted in the end. Overall the preliminary task I think went relatively well and this was due mostly to our group because we had already pre planned everything we needed to and were very organised as well. Our previous errors in our preliminary task ensured we didn’t make the same mistake for our final media project which went even smoother, we were more experience because of all the lessons with the cameras, we already knew how to use the important part of Final Cut Express and our group was very organised. We all did the work and filming on time so we didn’t miss dead lines which would cause problems and this led to a smooth project without any difficulties.
