Prelim Evalulation

Preliminary Task Evaluation

We organised or preliminary task well we firstly storyboarded our short film we used the story board template and we worked out the dialogue and the camera angles we used.

We learnt how to used the video recorders and we established the 180 degree rule, we used a variety of shots including high angle, low angle, a tracking shot and extreme close up.

The shot types went well and the editing went well we were unable to listen to the sound because the macs had a fault in them. The actors we used acted really well and helped make the short film believable and realistic. We took loads of shots then we filtered through them to find the best one as then we edited them using final cut express, we then added a small title sequence which lasted a few seconds then at the end we added credits showing who the actors were.

We found adding the clips to the computers hard because we had to use a normal desktop computer then we had to email them to a separate account then we could upload them to final cut where we could put them all together and analyse them and add the final finishing touches to them.

In this task we learnt how to use the macs more efficiently we also learnt how to use final cut and upload the clips.

Next time we do another task like this we will be able to story board and find the actors then we will take less clips and then upload them quicker so we can spend more time doing the editing we can then look through tutorials and find out how to add more effects and make it look more professional.
