Looking back at my preliminary task
what have I learnt in the progression
     from it to the full product?
Planning stage
                                                      Story board:
  The images of my storyboard of my preliminary task were extremely messy and unclear. As a result this was
   disturbing when it came to psychically producing the preliminary task as I kept getting confused how each shot
     should be taken. However, having taken this into consideration, when creating “Rewind” story board, I made
   sure that each shot was presented clearly and detailed. This enabled me to identify at what position exactly the
       camera would be situated and how each character, with the use of camera angles would be represented.
    Therefore, I strongly feel that I learnt the importance of having a story board because with the use of it, I knew
                             exactly what shots I needed to capture and what order to edit it.
                                                         Script:
       When planning the script for my preliminary task, I did not realise the huge impact a script has on the
        audience, however when producing my script for “Rewind”, I realised I had to think about the script very
    carefully as I wanted to illustrate each character in a specific in terms of what they say. Therefore, I learnt that
                         the script enables the characters to know exactly what to say and how.
                                          Research into sub conventions:
   By researching the conventions of thriller and horror and identifying exactly what genre is, it enabled me to
    establish why “Rewind” is a hybrid. “Rewind” fulfils the conventions of thrillers and horrors and as a result has
     left my movie to be a hybrid ( containing both horror and thriller conventions. ) “Rewind” is a psychotic thriller
     and horror movie. If I did not do research into sub convention I would not be able to categorize my movie and
    capture my target audience. Therefore, researching enabled me to identify exactly what genre “Rewind” is and
     how it meets the demand of each genre through sub conventions. Also, by establishing what sub convention
   “Rewind” belongs to I was able to plan the costumes, location, mise – en scene, camera angles and identify the
                                                editing my video would have.
                                          How did detail planning help me?
Detail planning enabled me to know exactly what shots I needed to captu re and what order to edit it in. This helps
         the process to be smoother. Also, whilst planning I began to get a rough view how my video would look
    therefore, I could easily adjust my prompts and costumes to match that view which would be best suitable for
   my target audience. This would fulfil the expectation of my audience and create the characters characteristic for
                                                        the audience.
Has my use of specific shot types improved?
During the preliminary task I used a few specific shots such as „Reverse
  shot‟, „match on action‟ and „continuity‟. However „Rewind‟ contains a
     range of shots for example; Panning, wide shot, establishing shot,
    medium shot, medium close up, close up, extreme close up, cut in,
      match on action, cut away, continuity, point of view shot, tilt, and
   tracking. Moreover, I strongly believe that my specific shot types had
         improved. The reason for this is because having finished my
          preliminary task I now have a deeper understanding of the
  significance of each shot type and therefore, adjusted each shot type
     to fit “Rewind” in order to make it effective to the target audience. I
  learnt that the way in which each shot type is taken can represents a
      particular perspective to the audience, therefore I was very wise
        when using the specific shot type to make the audience feel a
                         specific way for the character.
Do I feel more confident with the
                    equipment?
                                    Final Cut Express:
Using „Final Cut Express‟ for my preliminary task felt more like a trail, I was unaware
       how to do many things for example, edit, add effects, import files and add
 audio, however, I now feel much more confident when using „Final Cut Express‟ as I
   am very familiar with the program. „Rewind‟ contains edits, effects, add audio and
   imported files for example, when I created credits on „After Effects‟ I had to import
                the file from „Final Cut Express‟ to add it onto the timeline.

                                        Reflector:
The reflector enabled me to show the characters facial expression which makes the
  audience feel a certain way for example, when the female body is lying on the floor
     a reflector is used. The illustrates the darkness and lighting on the body. This
      emphasis that the female character has a dark side to her and a „pure‟ side.
