Preliminary Task complete

Shot and edited in a day, this is the preliminary task we were assigned to create. While it does not follow our storyboard exactly, due to my own tendency to rethink ideas and implement new shots as well as filling gaps whilst shooting, it still follows the essential plan of the film storyboard and most planned shots have been included or are slightly adjusted.





From this I have learnt that audio quality is a concern as low quality microphones do not pick up audio very well, especially dialogue, and that slight background noise is prominent. This means we will likely need to re-dub our final piece instead of recording dialogue on the day, as well as adding diegetic sound through Foley. I've also learnt how long it can take to get the right shots and will need to take this into account once planning out piece, by allowing time to re-shoot certain areas and to incorporate multiple takes into the piece. I also have to pay attention to focus, especially in tracking shots, as an unfocused shot is sloppy, unprofessional and not visually appealing.
