Saima Rashid worked within her role as the main character by understanding what her director wanted and receiving clear instructions. She communicated well within her team to create her character. One challenge was that filming took longer than planned due to a wardrobe issue, so her character's entrance had to be filmed mid-shot. While she didn't use the equipment much, she helped with planning and setup, including using two lights to darken the room for effect. The camera was on automatic for group shots but manual for shots of her character alone to emphasize her nerves. Areas for improvement include cutaway shots, timing, and script.

1. Saima Rashid
Evaluation of
Preliminary task

2. How did you work within your role?
 Main Character
From our meetings, I understood what my character
needed to portray and how I had to do this. I was given
clear instructions from the director and this helped me
work good within my role.

3. How did you work with in the team?
Our level of communication within our group was very
good therefore I understood what the director wanted
from my character, this helped me create my character
portfolio and convey this within our production.

4. What challenges did you experience?
 Our filming took a total of 2 ½ hours, which was two
lessons, on the second lesson because I didn't wear
black jeans we couldn't film me walking in because
you would see two different coloured jeans in the
previous shots , therefore as we was running out of
time we came up with the solution of filming me mid
shot of the upper body.

5. How did you find using the equipment?
My role didn't consist of me using the equipment a lot,
however I did have input in the planning of the task.
I also helped set up. we used two lights, key light and
back light. We made the room we was filming in dark
this was very important for our task because we
needed to add effect.

6. Did you set the camera to manual or
automatic settings?
 We set the camera to automatic while we was filming
the audition which both characters were involved in
because we had a lot of different shots to do and this
just made it easier. But when we was filming me
walking into the audition room we set the camera on
manual because we was trying to emphasis on the
characters feeling and to try show how nervous she
was.

7. What worked well in the filming
process?
We constructed our shots with great deal of
consideration of our subject, observing the
conventions of framing. We used low key lighting
illuminating the subject however minimal lighting on
the background to convey the importance of the
character.

8. What areas of filming do you need to build
on?
Cut away shots
Timing
Script
