Evaluating the Preliminary Task

 For our preliminary task we were asked to go and film a short piece showing how we can demonstrate different shot types like, match on action, shot reverse shot and also make sure we stick to the 180 degree rule. When we began to film i took the role of using the camera, making sure we got the different shot types in the task. We uses shot reverse shot, match on action and showing we can keep to the 180 degree rule to show the views that we can use different shots and angles to make our task better.

I was happy with our final result but like anything there is always room for improvement so we could have probably done better on some elements of the task. I think we could have improved on the location because we filmed it in a busy room so we could have probably done it in a quieter space to make the dialogue better.I think our group worked very well together, we all put in a fair amount of effort and all put good idea into the task. I feel quite confident using the camera now, i didn't at the start because i had never used a camera like that before and thought it would be very difficult but the more practice you have with the camera the better and more confident you become.
