Strengths and Weaknesses of Preliminary Task

In our preliminary there were both strengths and weaknesses in our final peace.

One strength of our preliminary task was the different types of shots used in our film. For example we used shots such as shot reverse shot, close up, medium shot. This shows that we understood and knew about different shots and how they can be used for effect. Another strength was how simple and straight to the point our idea was. By this I mean the audience knew right away what was going on and what the film was about. We knew if we kept the idea simple and to the point, it would be effective and easier to explain. We also did not break the 180-degree rule, this give the film a look of professionalism and also shows that we were thinking about everything we shot.

 Although there were areas of our preliminary that could be improved. One of the main things was sound, the sound on our film was hard to understand and there was a echo in the room. To avoid this we could of done a test of the room first to see what the dialogue sounded like before shooting. Another Weakness was that people said our film was too short and would of liked to see more. To avoid this we could of made some scenes longer and could of put more detail into the dialogue. One other problem was with the opening shot, there was a lot of dead space and the camera shot was a little bit wobbly.
