Hooria and Sana collaborated well to plan their preliminary task, using storyboarding and mise-en-scene techniques. They filmed it using a Sony camera, but had issues with lighting and audio quality. Sana edited the task using Sony Vegas Pro 12.0 software on a Sony Vaio laptop, which provided professional editing tools. While the task covered intended camera shots and framing, the lighting and video quality were not optimal. Overall, Sana learned about teamwork, camera techniques, and planning and editing video tasks.

Preliminary Task Evaluation

2. How effective was the pre-production workflow?
As a group of two my partner Hooria and I did well to
collaborate our work and voice our opinions, to
create an idea for the task. We planned it thoroughly
by using mise-en-scene, storyboard etc.The planning
did help us better visualize our task. But since it was
our first task it was difficult to keep up , if we had
more time we could have thought out more about
this task.

3. What did we use to film our preliminary task?
To film our task we used a Sony camera
recorder. But the recorder had issues like
lighting problems and could not catch the
sound clearly. When we stopped the
recorder the sound of the button pressing
could be heard as well.

4. What did I use to edit my task?
We used a Sony Vaio laptop to edit the task
with the Sony Vegas Pro 12.0 software. It is
very efficient and gives a professional look.
It is user friendly and has many tools like
transitions, split too, text tool etc; it also had
special video effects as well.

5. Does our task meet its criteria?
In my opinion I think it does since we covered
all camera shots/movements, with the
framing as well. The camera shots including
over the shoulder, Point of view and match
on action. But the lighting is not that good
and so is the video quality.

6. Overall, what have you learnt from the process of
completing the task ?
Throughout the whole process I have learnt teamwork
and how to co-operate with each other and make
joint decisions. I have learnt how to practically use
the camera techniques, as well how to use the editing
software in detail for future purposes as well. I have
also learnt how to deal with actors and how each
video task must be planned thoroughly before
shooting/editing it.
