The student has learned many transferable technical skills from completing a preliminary continuity task and subsequent full-length film project. These skills - including proficiency with video editing software, time management, and team collaboration - will help with their goal of studying film in university. Comparing shots and scenes between the two projects, the student can see clear improvements in areas like cinematography, lighting, sound quality and overall professionalism from having more time to plan and execute the full-length film. The experience has demonstrated to the student how learning from mistakes can lead to higher quality work.

1. 7
Looking back at my preliminary
task, what do you feel you have
learnt in the progression from it to
the full product?

2. I have developed a range
transferable and
technical skills that will
help me in my future
career since I do want to
study film studies at
university and hopefully
become a film maker.

3. Preliminary task - ‘continuity task’
We were to create a short video in which the continuity would match the action. We had to use the 180 degree
rule and 2 lines of conversation.#
We had made lots of mistakes and learnt a great deal, by knowing our faults we created a much better end
media product which we had a lot more time to film and edit.

4. Across the Bridge
Given about 5 months to do anything we
wanted, in any genre we wanted using the
amazing school equipment and our imagination
we have created something that we are proud
of.
In comparison with the short task we were given
before this one. I was able to develop a range of
skills such as being able to use Adobe Premiere
successfully, time manage better and be able to
work in a team in which we all had different
priorities.

5. In both scenarios
we have used a
close up.
We can evidently see the
difference between the two,
the bottom right is grainy and
badly lit where as the one
above is clear and well shot.
Also the actor is the same and
I think she proved to be an
amazing actress no matter the
script or directors.

6. The cinematography has as
shown in these two pictures
improved to the point that I
think the back picture may be
considered professional.

7. In ‘ Across the Bridge’ we tried
to convey things that are
important to us and attract the
audience by doing so. Also we
has a strong storyline, set time
and a lot of carriage to peruse
our plan. On the contrary the
preliminary task has been a trial
and I don’t think all of us have
taken to heart that we should do
it to the best of our abilities.
Yet I am still firmly in belief
that we have learned a lot from
both and everything that we do
next will be better that what we
have filmed last.

8. Last scene of both videos.
The light has played a major role here.
Also the sound that I am not able to show is in no doubt better and
clearer in the last project we have done.

9. I am happy that it is
clear which project is
which simply because
I love to see the
improvement in my
