Our Preliminary Task

This is our final production of our Preliminary Task, we as a group feel confident that this can lead us on to finalising our final piece.

We have found some errors throughout the short clip but hopefully we can learn from our mistakes and produce an outstanding piece of work. The errors throughout clip have been noted and our group now understands the concepts needed throughout the coursework to aim for the higher band grades.

Our group as a whole feel that we have done amazingly well for our first preliminary task as we have not really recognized the feature in iMovie and have struggled but we are overcoming the situation and we have proved that we have what it takes to progress further in A Level Media Studies on a whole.

I hope our audience are impressed by our work that we have produced and can see how far we have progressed throughout our media clips.

These attached scenes are the ones we chose to delete due to many reasons, one reason is that we felt them not suitable enough to be on our final piece and the other factor was mistakes me made when shooting these scenes.

As students we were not able to preform high standard acting skills and therefore some of the scenes took us many takes due to the lack of in experienced acting. However as we had the opportunity to retake most of the scenes with time came the right moments and the final product demonstrates that.

The duration of some of the takes may have taken us longer than others, as they were much harder to film as we were insecure about some of the angles used at that point which led us to to take many camera shots.This has benefited us in many different ways as we discovered that different angles and techniques can create different effects on the shot, which then creates a reaction from the audience.

The location of our preliminary task took place in our school, this is because after long hours of looking for a good location we have not discovered anything this meant that we wasted our valuable time of recording on looking for a place that has not been found. However our school was the last option and it has served its purpose we have filmed the task in school and it has come out very good .
