Preliminary Task

Learning Comments

Planning - When planning the video we had a story board of what the video would contain, after making the video i have learnt that the planning stage is very important as it determines how the video turns out. In future i would plan more to make sure that there would be more content for us to film. Before filming this we made sure that we used three main techniques Shot reverse shot, 180 degree rule and match on action.

Filming - Making sure filming was organised is important for how the video turns out. I have learnt that it is important for character consistency as we had to use two different characters for the same scene and is noticeable by the change of hair colour of the character closest to the camera during the dialogue. Getting as much footage possible. This is important for the final cut to be perfect, if we don't have enough footage to make sure all scene transition smoothly sometimes the final cut can look organised.

Editing - When editing it is important to make sure all of the scenes look similar and so it looks smooth and transitions well. From editing the final cut i have found that the more footage the more choice you have when editing to make sure it looks perfect, if i was to do this again i would make sure that there is as much footage as possible. The video seems quite 'Jumpy' this is due to the shots not being similar and causes the transitions to look 'Jumpy' and untidy.
