The document discusses the progression from the author's preliminary task to their final product. They learned about different shot types for the preliminary task but felt it lacked quality. For the final product, the author was able to incorporate more advanced shots like cross-cutting and faster editing. Planning and research were key to producing the higher quality final product.

1. Question 7:
Looking back at your preliminary
task, what do you feel you have
learnt in the progression from it to
your final product?

2. • During the preliminary task we were finding
out about the many different shot types and
how they could be used. As this was learning
it wasn't the best.
• The preliminary and final production allowed
me to practice and develop my skills, with the
Mac and the different software's.
• With my final piece I was able to used more
shots like, cross-cut convergence and fast
editing.

3. • In comparison my finial product holds a lot
more variety of shots. Through different
angles and editing the 2 minutes rounded up
well. Where as with the preliminary task these
fast shots weren't included because I wasn't
that confident with the camera.
• Shot-reverse-shot wasn’t used in my finial
piece as I wanted to focus more on the plot
and tension. I relied heavily upon sound and
mise-en-scene to set the film. If I were to
extend the film – this would be included

4. • Planning out and researching for my finial
product was one of the main things that lead
to production, without the amount of
planning I did it would have taken longer to
construct and wouldn't be up to the same
quality.
• As I was more confident and work on my own
I felt much more comfortable with my own
ideas – I had a clear vision and was able to
make it without any other opinions or ideas.

5. • Sound and mise-en scene is something that I
incorporated better than in the preliminary. I
had to make sure props were realistic to fit
within the scene.
• Where as in the preliminary we had to work
with our surroundings.
• I worked hard to make all the mise-en-scene
continuous in my final production – like the
clothing Frank wears, the lighting and time of
day.
