1. AS PRELIMINARY
TASK EVALUATION.
By Lois Woodward.

2. WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED DURING THE
MAKING OF YOUR PRELIMINARY TASK?
• During the preliminary task I learned many new things that will help me with
larger media tasks and in the future.
• I learnt how to use handbrake which takes videos which have no audio and
transfers the audio onto the video.
• The editing for me was easy because I already knew how to work an editing
system, but this was a little different as I had to match video movement and
try and achieve match on action and continuity, which I think worked well.

3. AREAS OF SUCCESS.
• My group did so well when making and editing the film, we got on so well and
supported each others ideas, there were no cross words between anyone and were
proud of what we achieved.
• The use of premiere pro went well as we managed to use it properly and it was fairly
easy to use which made our process of editing easier for the group.
• There was no leader in the group which is why I think we got on so well because we
did not have anyone over powering us and telling us what to do.
• The was a scene in our piece where we used our set to show leading lines, and it
had a few comments about how good it looked on camera and when it was
finished.
• Our group used our lessons to film because we liked that we were altogether and
we could all make the filming sessions and we all contributed.

4. AREAS OF IMPROVEMENT.
• A way for us to improve would be to get other people to
act in the film as we could’ve used our group more behind
the camera instead of in front. For our next filming task we
have already asked for people to be in film so that our
group can work more behind the camera and work on
shots that we didn’t use in this task that we could use in the
next one.

5. HOW WELL DID YOU MEET THE BRIEF.
• Unfortunately we didn’t meet the brief as well as we thought as we did not
include the 180 degree rule and shot/reverse shot, but did use match on
action throughout the piece.
• We did not use the other two as we did forget to add them in our filming and
then we did not have time to go back and re-film anything as if we did go
back and re-film it, it would’ve taken time out of our editing which would’ve
made our film not as good.
• Next time we will use these shots as we know now how to do them and we
will manage our time and remember to film them next time.

6. EVALUATE YOUR CONTRIBUTION
TO THE GROUPS WORK.
• Personally I helped an awful lot in the filming process and
with the editing.
• I starred in the film briefly which was no problem as it helped
the group a lot.
• I edited the whole film as the girls didn’t know how to or
what to do with the software whereas I had some idea and
once I started it just got easier to work with.
