Evaluation of the preliminary task


What is the purpose of the preliminary task?
The purpose of the preliminary task is to highlight our understanding of shot reverse shot, the basic rules of match on action and the features of the 180 degree rule. It is also going to show my understanding of how to use them when filming a sequence of shots. 
What difficulties did you face?
The difficulties that we faced was making the scene flow when using transitions. Also trying to match the clips so the storyline makes sense. In addition we had trouble finding the right piece of music to match the scene and the context of the scene. Also we found that when filming we had to try and keep things in the same place and not move them between shots because you would be able to see them and the scene wouldn't flow. 
How did you plan out the shots?
We planned the shots out on a story board which allowed us to see what it would actually look like. We also took the shots more than once so we were able to choose the best one that made the most sense and looked best. 
What did you learn about continuity editing?
The shots all have to run smoothly and clearly so the sequence of shots will make sense to the audience. 
What did you learn about the demands of filming a sequence?
I leant that you have to make sure you plan out all your scenes first so you don't make mistakes when filming and so it is easier when filming too. This also allows you to spend more time of editing.
