The preliminary task was a task done to show if we could use and understand some of the basic rules of filming a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting in a chair opposite another character with whom they shall exchange a few lines of dialogue with. This task had to last up to a maximum of 1 minute. The preliminary task was hard to do at first due to having to get the editing correct so that the small clip runs smoothly as well as to abide by the continuity part of the task.
The main task was done to showcase our understanding of making a short film. Throughout this task we had to do many things to create our short film. For example, we made a script and shot-list so that we knew what we had to say and what type of shots to film when filming the main task.
During the preliminary task we learnt a lot of things that we could take on board and use in our main task, this included the 180 degree rule, match on action and shot reverse shot. We used these three things in our main task to ensure that continuity was not broken and the film did not look odd. We have got better at including many more shot types such as whip pans and low level shots, we decided to use these types of shots as they look more mysterious and build tension which is what our film is based on.
