The student learned several important skills from their preliminary task to the final production. They improved their filming technique from only handheld shots to using a tripod and taking multiple takes. Their editing skills also progressed significantly from simply putting clips together to using advanced features like fades and effects. Additionally, they got better at selecting appropriate music. Overall, the student made huge improvements in their filming, editing, and use of production elements from their early work to the final project.

1. Q7 - Looking back at your
preliminary task, what have you
learnt in the progression from that
to the final product?

2.  My prelim task was filmed completely hand held as that was
the only thing i was familiar with. But when it came to filming
my final production i used a lot of media technology. for
example i used a tripod to have steady shot and i also used
different angles and i made sure that i took my time filming a lot
more takes to ensure i got the best shots. This is something i
did not do in my prelim task as i just took one take and thought
it was good enough when it truly was not.

3.  Editing i think was the biggest thing i think personally i have improved
and change a lot in. I say this as when editing my prelim i just rushed
and put the basics on my film as i did not know what to do. But when i
learnt everything and was confident i stepped up to become main editor
of my final piece. Something which i am very proud of as i think i did a
great job. I say this because i used many new features which i did not
know before such as fades and special effects to make the film more
premium. Also i something that i had no clue during editing my prelim
task was finding and adding the correct music. This is something that i
thrived in in my final piece as i figured out what music i wanted and how
to ensure it fits in our film pretty quickly. Overall i would say that i have
made huge progression from my prelim to my final AS production,
something that i am very proud of.

4. Over the shoulder
 Prelim Final
A major difference from my prelim to my final film was the film shots. In
my prelim we used basic shots such as a over shoulder the shot. We
used this but it didn’t turn into in it more complex. In my final film I
would say that we used a complex over shoulder the shot which we
turned into a flash back. This shows progress in my development as I
knew this would appeal to the viewers.

5. Location
 Prelim Final
Another major difference between my prelim and final film was the
location. During my location we used the bridge academy which was
basic. But in my final film I knew I wanted to be creative so chose to
find a rooftop which was perfect for my narative.
