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?

In the preliminary task we had to make short 30 second video of a conversation and aperson walking. In it we had to use different techniques such as shot-reverse-shot, 180 degree rule, match on action and continuity. This task was more to show us what we had to do in our proper project and how to edit. Our preliminary task was paced on a police interigation. 

In our full product we had to make the first two minutes of a movie. Our movie was about a boxer who had to come back and start fighting again after his wife was killed. This let use many things we learnt in the process of making the video for our preliminary task. We used things such as shot-reverse-shot and 180 degree rule, we also got to use editing techniques we learnt such as jumpcuts and close ups.

Through the process of making our full project i did see how at times we applied what we had learnt in the preliminary task to our film. Looking back i feel like i learnt a lot from the preliminary exercise for both filming and editing. I feel that if i wouldn't have been able to do the preliminary task the full product would have definitely not been as good as it was. We also improved many of our skills as in the film we had things such as music, voiceover and titles which we had to learn how to add. This was because our preliminary task looked at just simpl3 things while the final product needs many more things in it. Overall the end product i thing turned out good and looked like we imagined it.
