Evaluation of task (comment on use of planning, use of camera, use of iMovie and working
as part of a group. Include 2 areas for improvement, which you work on during the main
task.)
We made a plan before we started filming which was detailed and highlighted where we were filming
and the positions we needed to be in. We also included a script so we knew exactly what we were
going to say to each other. The camera shots we used were shot reverse sot, match in action and
the 180 degree rule which all look great in our final product.
As I group I thought we worked well and we all gave our own ideas. When we can to use I Movie we
found it really easy to use and we all gave our personal thoughts on where to cut the certain parts of
2. the movie. If there was anything I could change about our movie was to add some more characters
as not everybody was in the movie. Secondly I would if we had more time go into more detail by
using props to give a better effect.
