By doing the Preliminary task it helped it understand certain aspects of filming and editing. During the time in which we produced the preliminary task we found difficulties in maintaining the 180degree rule, this lead to us having to develop and complete it again, until correct. The problems which we encountered were that we didn't shoot from the correct side, resulting in an uneven match of the eye-line match. After watching the whole preliminary task and analyzing it, it became apparent that the majority of it didn't flow well even though we did have very good individual shots. To overcome this problem we decided to re-shoot the whole of our task to a better quality. We did this by using the cameras provided, which were essentially very easy to use once shown. We were shown how to use a tripod in order to shoot a panning shot, this worked to our advantage as we hope to use this in our main task. Once our preliminary footage was completed and stored on the camera, we opened editing software (final cut pro 7) to develop our sequence. This consisted of us merging the shots together to produce an understandable and easy to follow continuity sequence. Overall the team work of our group worked in our favor as it helped us to fulfill all expectations. Each member of the group made sure their attendance and punctuality was consistent throughout all lessons so there was an equal contribution.
Beforehand, we made a shot list of the different type of shots we wanted in our film. At approximately 22seconds we included an over the shoulder shot reverse shot. We used this shot to convey effect in the heated conversation between the two characters. The first shot shows character A (Leah Fraser) explaining that she isn't comfortable in her surroundings; the second half of the shot reverse shot shows character B (Rebecca Gorvette) replying to what is said to her. Each shot involves the characters expressing facial expressions which connotes the way they're feeling.
Most of our shots include match cuts which help fulfill standard continuity. We achieved one specific match cut by shooting a close up shot of character B opening a door handle; we then joined it with another long shot showing character B walking away from the door.
