1. Prelim Task Evaluation
How did I find getting ideas- easy hard?
How was scripting and story boarding?
Filming did anything go wrong? What went right?
Editing how was it? Easy hard? What was learnt?
If repeated what would you change
- I watched a few of the previous preliminary task videos on the school
YouTube which have me inspiration for my video. I knew I wanted to do
a serious film between a boyfriend and a girlfriend so I thought of all the
different reasons why they may argueand worked on it from there. I
wanted to base my video on an argument and I had wanted to do this
fromthe beginning and my ideas didn’t change. I had written the script
before filming and I gaveit to the actors to say. After a small amount of
improvisation the script was followed my majority. My story board was a
quite difficult as I didn’t know whereI was going to be filming it or what
to draw. I drew the storyboard after I had filmed which I know I
shouldn’thave done but it was the easiest thing to do. During filming
there were a few filming errors butthey were easily overcomeas the
camera was too dark. I didn’tuse these clips as I sorted the camera out
and filmed the clips again. There werealso a few times wherethe actors
laughed so I had to edit those parts out. Besides that the filming was fine
and it wentright. With the editing I had to find the right music and make
a few cuts of the actors beforethey started. The music was tricky to find
as I had to find a suitable song, after this the volume had to be edited so
that the talking of the actors wasn’tdrowned outby the music. If I
repeated this task I would make sureI do the story board firstand make
surethat the script is followed word for word. I thoughtmy actors
worked well and that they set a good atmospherefor my film. I would
use the same actors but maybe a different setting.
