Evaluation question 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in your progression from it to the full task?

Top: Final product
Bottom: Preliminary task

Looking at the two films, it is clear to see how our film making abilities improved throughout the process. There is a significant improvement in our ability to spot and rectify continuity errors as there are not as many evidnt in our main task as there were in our prelim. We also became better at positioning a camera in order to get the best effect form as scene and we became much better at framing shots so that all relevant characters could be seen clearly and that the audience got a sense of how they are supposed to be feeling. Our editing ability also improved as the finished product was much more slick and professional than the prelim, with the editing being less noticeable and seeming more natural dues to smoother cuts and our ability to use fades effectively. We also improved our script writing, achieving more believable dialogue in our main task than we did in our prelim. It is visible from watching our work that there was an overall improvement in our use of filming, editing, sound, effects, script writing and narrative from our prelim to our main task.
