Preliminary Task Commentary.

Preliminary Task Commentary:

 

In true cinema-graphic style we began filming from the end backwards. We filmed the conversation between Elle and Marta initially from an angle that panned down from the mid shot of Elle walking into the room, I don't like this because it isn't fluid and you can hear the 'creak' of the tripod as the camera pans down. As we hadn't written down the line Elle and Marta were saying we found it difficult to reproduce the same conversation form different angles to show ur knowledge and the correct use of the 180 degree rule.

The next shot we filmed was the shot of Elle walking (skipping) down the corridor this was a relativity simple shot, it was just a long shot as Elle walked down the corridor. The follow shot however proved quite difficult. This shot was to demonstrate proper use of match on action, this meant we had to film two different shots and past them together so they looked as if they were on single continuous action.

The next thing we had to do was edit. This was out groups first experience using editing software, this meant that it took us a while to get used to how the software worked but once we crossed the initial hurdle edit went fairly smooth and we were all relatively happy with the final results.

I think with a few tweaks and some extra knowledge we will get a lot better at editing for our final piece.
