Evaluation

Looking back on the task i believe i have learnt a lot about continuity, For example, I have learnt that its not just about filming you relay have to think about how you are going to shoot it so it looks continuous and flow well to the viewer. I have also learnt that you have to take in to consideration what other shots you put in around your match in actions shot to ensure that they all make sense in relation to each other. I also believe that i have learnt a lot about the different rules you have to remember to ensure that your piece is continuous. For example, I am now aware that you must include the 180 degree rule , a match in action shot and the 30 degree rule , you must take in to consideration the character eye line and your basic establishment shots.

I believe that we could have been more organised when it came to preparing to script and our story board as it was all very last minuet. We had both said that we would look at doing a script the day before so we would look at doing a script the day before so we would have some idea of what we were going to say the next day. However neither of us got round to it and we ended up having to write a script at the beginning which did take up filming time. we also lost the story board we had created the day before so had to take time out to re draw it so we could follow our original plan. this task has taught me that organisation is key to making a successful piece.

I think that the task has defiantly shown me how to use certain pieces of equipment that i otherwise wouldn't know how to operate such as the camera and tripod. Although i was not the camera operator I did look before hand at how it was used if eve i did need to use it.

I have also learnt how to use the editing equipment even though i may only be the basics because my sight kept me from the more complicated areas. I fell this is very beneficial because i can now explain how I would edit certain pieces and could describe the editing process quited easily.

In general I think that this taks has taught me an awful lot and made me much more comfortable around the equipment I will be sing later on in the course and has given me a firm foundation of knowledge to build on.
