Media Preliminary Task 
Evaluation
Pre-Development 
Our group was a group of two, me and Matt Wells, 
but we also had help from an A2 Media student, 
Aaron Baskerville. We started off by creating a 
storyboard for the project. This included a depiction 
of the shots we were planning on using, and also a 
brief description as to what was going to happen. 
We then got to work on making a script for the 
characters to say. We established that Matt was 
going to be in the production, and I was going to be 
the camera-man.
What went well? 
• I felt that Matt and I were a good pairing, as 
our ideas were very similar, and we got these 
tasks done quickly and ready for filming after 
a brief period. 
• We established what we were going to try and 
do early on, so our project was a smooth one 
(without the technical issues).
Areas of Improvement 
• Our storyboard may not have been clear to 
others, mainly due to my poor, and partly 
rushed, drawings.
Production 
Our main “plot” was for Matt to be a drug 
dealer on the way to meet a client. They would 
then discuss business before going through with 
it. For some of our shots we ended up having to 
wait a couple of days to film in that location, due 
to students being in the shot if we filmed. A lot 
of the time when we were filming, people were 
getting in the shot and ruining it. This was 
because we were filming in a location with high 
traffic.
What went well? 
• We conveyed a sense of mystery to Matt’s character, by 
having him have his hood up, and the audience never 
seeing his face until he gets to the “drug deal”. 
• I felt that our match-on-action was performed really 
well, and I am unable to recall any mistakes that 
affected the continuity. 
• We quickly established which shots we were going to 
shoot, and how we were going to do them. 
• We used a wide range of shot types such as: mid-range, 
point of view, low angle shot, high angle shot, leading 
lines.
Areas of Improvement 
• The cuttings between the lines of dialog were too abrupt, 
which corrupted the smoothness of the scene. This was not 
necessarily a continuity issue, and could have been fixed 
through better editing. 
• It took us a couple of lessons to shoot a close-up shot of 
Matt’s feet as he is walking. This was due to having the 
equipment available for a clean shot. We ended up using a P.E 
athletics mat, which managed to sneak its way into the shot. 
• The lighting varied in some of the shots. Sometimes it would 
be too bright, and sometime it would be quite dark. This 
wasn’t really our fault, as we couldn’t block up a 10 foot long 
window. 
• We could have included some music at certain points.
Post-Production 
For the post-production, Matt and I had to edit our 
task with Premier Pro. This involved making sure 
the match on action flowed smoothly, cutting out 
shots we didn’t want or need, and ordering our 
clips. We ran into a huge array of technical 
problems along the way, so it is a wonder that we 
managed to get what we did. We uploaded all of 
our clips onto the computer, only to realise that the 
file types weren’t compatible with Premier Pro. We 
then had to run all of our files through handbrake in 
order for them to become compatible. This process 
probably took up a total of 4/5 lessons.
What went well? 
• With what little time we had, we did a good 
job with the editing. 
• Our match-on-action was edited really well. 
• We included shot, reverse shots so that it was 
easy to tell what was happening in the 
dialogue section. This wasn’t as smooth as we 
would have liked, but still came out well.
Areas of Improvement 
• The time that we had could have been used 
more efficiently, but as were new to the 
software we weren’t really 100% on the 
techniques.
Conclusion 
Overall, I was happy with our final outcome, and 
thought that Matt and I worked hard to get to 
the end product that we came out with. I feel 
like Matt was a great partner to work with, as he 
performed his part very well, and left me to get 
on with what I was going to do. He also came up 
with a lot of good ideas for the project, and 
played a key part in the final outcome.
