1) The software used to create the preliminary task (IMovie) was more basic than the software used for the film opening (PremierePro), which offered more tools and allowed for dubbing sound, fading shots, and title screens. 2) Recording equipment improved from using built-in camera microphones to using an external Sennheiser microphone and H1 zoom recorder, resulting in better quality sound. 3) Camera skills improved from unsteady pan shots taken freehand to smoother pan shots taken with a tripod, and more extensive camera shots and title screens were used in the film opening compared to the preliminary task.
