Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity task editing), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?
Looking back from the preliminary task I have learned a great deal. The preliminary task was a preparation exercise which was designed so that when we carry out the actual project, there would be minimal faults. The camera work and editing is more advanced in the final product with more angles such as high and low. it is good to have a range of shots and angles as it makes the sequence more exciting rather than having one static shot the whole way through. Here are some examples:
This angle here is an low angle and a point of view shot of John looking up at the hooded figure chasing him.
This frame on the left is an high angle shot of John running down the stairs, it was a good angle as to tell the audience the scale of what is going on. It also puts the audience in the scene.
From my preliminary task to the final product I conveyed rules such as the 180 degree not breaking it once in the final. I also used match on action when John looks at the "out of order" sign on the lift.
The Overall success of my film I would say is a definite success. The overall planning and research we did in the build up was helpful as it allowed us to look at other successful thrillers and apply what they did to our own. In future the things that I would do different is to keep to personal deadlines.
