So I thought my preliminary task went pretty well but I'm no Stephen King and not making The Shawshank Redemption but considering I've never made anything like that before I honestly thought it went well so lets get into strengths and weaknesses.
Strengths
- I felt we all worked well as a team with the organisation of the story and dialogue
- When filming we stuck to our roles
- We were all happy with the final product
Weaknesses
- Organizing times to film and edit our production was fairly difficult
- When filming we wasn't 100% focused
- Finding cast was slightly difficult
- The shot/reverse shot wasn't 100% accurate as we broke the 180 degree rule
00:00 to 00:04
We have our title and what its for, the title page was really simple and we'll definitely will produce something far more amazing in our next piece of practical coursework.
00:04 to 00:16
We have our actor walking through a door and then towards another door, we panned to follow his walk.
00:16 to 00:24
We have the match on action and then pan to follow the actor who then sits facing opposite the other actor.
00:24 to 00:28
The slightly dodgy shot/reverse shot has begun with actor 1 opening with the first line of dialogue.
00:28 to 00:29
The shot/reverse shot has commenced and actor 2 gives his line of dialogue
00:29 to 00:34
The shot is then reverse and actor 1 gives another line of dialogue
00:34 to 00:38
The shot is reverse once more and actor 2 gives another line of dialogue
00:38 to 00:49
Our plain and simple credits appear giving the name of the task, what the task is, the actors and the team that put it together.
I believe that despite non of us ever producing anything like this before we did quite well with minimal mistakes. I definitely can't wait for the next practical piece of coursework and I'm sure we're going to smash it
Please stick around and prepare for complete awesomeness!
