Self Evaluation of Prelim Task

In this essay i will review my groups preliminary task. We have received feedback from classmates through written means and also video blogs on what they thought of our piece. The overall reaction to our film was good. Also we enjoyed the job we did on our film as we included a range of shots and followed the brief.

The only major problem and negative feedback we received was the fact that contnuity was not followed as the detective in our task had to shut the door, the door must have been jammed as you saw him slam the door and it slightly reopened, but in the next scene the door was closed. In my opinion if we had a room with a conventional door then it would have shut with no problem.

Despite the continuity error, i felt this has gotten us fully prepared for when we make our opening sequence  as we did a good job with our cinematography also we found editing easy. For the entirity of our task we kept the camera steady and also followed the 180 degree rule and used match on action effectively and we used shot reverse shot.

Finally to improve our task i believe we could have found a solution to the door situation, possibly used a better setting to avoid something like that happening again.
