Looking back at the preliminary task, what do you think you have learnt from the progression from it to the full task?

Progression from the preliminary task to the main task has taught all of us how to work at the best of our abilities. For the preliminary task we where told that ‘’we needed to show a person going through a door, and show a close up of the door. We where told that we needed to include a shot/reverse shot and the 180 degree rule. We where also told that out film should only be 30seconds long.’’ The main task we where asked to ‘’create an opening sequence which is to last a maximum of two minutes.’’ The prelim task helped us to be better at our main task as we had to think about target audience before getting started, had to made some researches, taught us to be able to discuss as a group and come up with ideas as a group. In the prelim task we tried to do too much which wasn’t possible and so therefore it helped us to keep things simple but also effective at the same time. Showed us the importance of planning as some of the ideas which we come up with where impossible to do. Prelim task helped us to make sure that we thought about how we wanted our characters to be like and why and how they can relate to our target audience.
