Production task evaluation
Well firstly we planned out the whole task, yet faced a few problems which meant having to think of a whole new idea from scratch. After creating story boards, script and planning setting and costume, we started filming. We filmed it during school time so we had to do several takes as people were in the way. it took us 45 minutes to get all our footage. We started off by taking several cuts of the girl walking through the door then several on the other side of the door, to give us more options when editing. All the filming after that was a case of standing at the right angle, recording and pausing then switching positions, such as for shot reverse shot . again we done several takes to make sure we had as many options as possible to make the editing as slick as possible.
After all the filming was done it was all down to the editing. We spent several lessons cutting our footage and splitting clips so that it all flowed better. as if we hadn't cut all the clips down and watched it through frame by frame then the transitions would not be as good and people would have been able to notice even the smallest of changes between 2 clips. With all the cutting done it was a case of putting it together and in the correct order. Near the end we found a small problem that 2 of our shots didn't blend together. So on Imovie we found a transition that mixed the 2 together and made It so much better. There was no music involved so that was ok.
There are a few improvements which could be better. this includes the time of day so that it would have been easier to do without people constantly interrupting. If our script was better as we ran out of time therefore had to plan a whole idea off the top of our heads. Possibly if it was a little bit longer in time we could have covered the 3 continuity rules not so fast. All these factors could have had a big impact on our final project if we had thought about it more and in depth. But these improvements aren't major problems therefore not affecting it greatly.
