Preliminary task

We made a storyboard for our preliminary task to plan how we was going to film it e.g. what types of shots, what actions, sound and lighting would be used. We did plan some script starters but then we also allowed the actors to 'ad- lib' the rest of the conversation this made it seem more natural. When it came to filming the task we decided to make some changes to the task as we thought it would have worked better and made it more sucessful etc. This even so Adam and I did have some problems before shooting and then needed to arrange the storyboard around the actors this made a better ampthosphere which allowed us to move around the conversation more fluently and stopped breaking it up.


As we was filming we made sure we used certain rules and techniques such as the 180 degree rule which consits of the camera only being on one side of the characters. We also used shot reverse shot this is if the characters are exchanging dialoge then the camera films just one characters face which would be used from an over the shoulder shot, then when the other character speaks then the camera would switch to just filming them.

After filming we needed to edit what we had filmed, when doing this we found may techniques to edit and make changes that we wanted. e.g flipping the image this help us with making the shot reverse shot that we wanted as we were not able to achieve this fully when filming. We also found other techniques that we think may be useful to us for our main task from the ideas we already have.
