1. 7) Looking back at your preliminary task , What do
you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to
the full product?

2. Equipment
 There is a substantial difference between my
preliminary task and final product.
 During the making of my preliminary video , I found it
difficult to handle the equipment , for example the
tripod.
 I had trouble in placing the tripod in the correct
position and bring it up to the eye level.

3. Mistakesnumber of mistakes
 There were a
in my preliminary task. First of
which was the match on action
shot. It did not link together and
the framing was poor.
 Another easily readable error was
that in certain scenes, my framing
in one of the over the shoulder
shots was incorrect and the part of
the character face had been
cropped out.

4.  Furthermore, the two shot was also
incorrect as both characters were
almost completely hidden. This was
because of my poor choice of
location, which was a classroom, so
there was less space to position the
tripod.
 Some shots were out of focus as
well. This combined with the
artificial lighting reduced the
clarity of the video substantially.

5. Research Process for the Final
Product
 As for the final product, I started out with the movie

concept which was the initial idea.
Next came the film treatment in which I further explained
the plot and characters.
Then came the shot list in which the shots I was going to
use were decided and the scenes for those shots described
briefly.
I then processed it into a screenplay which was the main
script of the film.
After that I created the storyboard, and thanks to my
artistic skills I was able to draw out the characters well.

6.  Next came the shooting of the film. I had to shoot the
movie twice as the first time was filled with
distractions and mistakes.
 Finally came the editing, which converted my short
clips into a two minute opening and gave life to it with
the music and effects.

7. ImprovementsI was
 In the preliminary task
unable to film the walking
scene correctly, but I
managed to pull it off in my
Final product by choosing the
right location and framing
correctly.

8.  I used the appropriate nose
space and framed correctly
in my final product, which
was previously incorrect in
the preliminary task.
 Outdoor shooting and
correct focus gave my final
product better clarity.

9.  I successfully executed the match on action technique,
correctly linking two shots together in my final product.

10. Conclusion
 I think I have my made some significant
improvements in film making since the preliminary
task, and look forward to my next assignment.
