Evaluation Question 7

When creating then film we have learnt that when working in groups it is very important to spread the workload around individuals as it means that we can then go ahead and work a lot more efficiently meaning that you will be able to get the work done a lot more faster and each person will be able to have there own input on the task that has been set making the group run a lot more efficient. Another point is that when we started work made sure that people in the group were participating through out by setting each member in the group certain tasks.

At the start of the task we did not have that much experience when It came to using cameras so when we was asked to then operate the cameras it came as a challenge to the group as when then had to learn all of the rules and the cameras angles so that you can then go and start filming. When we started filming we deiced to do the hardest shots first so we could then get them over and done with and then focus on the more simple shots on the movie. When we was filming we made sure that all of the scenes were in focus and had all the actors in shot so we could then get a good edit and not have to crop anything out of the film also when we was using the cameras we had to make sure that we had the right settings on the camera so we was recording the video in the best quality.

When we started filming the opening sequence to the film we have to make sure that we was following all of the rules that are needed, for example when filming we had to think about the match on action shot for the film and also the 180 degree rule, for example when we was filming we had to make sure we had to follow the 180 degree rule by this we mean that we had to film one side of the characters and then not film the other, here is an image to show what the filming is like.

As you can see all of the green cameras show where you can film when the rule is in pace but then the red camera on the over side shows where you cannot film when using the rule. Furthermore another rule that we had to follow is the match on action shot is a technique for continuity editing in which one shit portraying the action of the subjecting in the first shot.

When we was making the finial product we had to make sure that all of this knowledge was then put into the film, so for example we then had to make sure that all of the clips that we had recorded met all of the rules that had been set and that we had all of the clips recorded at the right settings so that the film was in good quality, also when it come to working on the finial film we had to make sure that each member in the group had a task to do so for example we set people editing tasks and then set people tasks to then go ahead and start answer questions for the evaluation so overall the main task was completed a lot better and more efficient, and when editing we had to go through all of the clips to make sure that all of the clips had nothing bad in them for example tripods and camera bags that would give away what we was filming. Overall I think that we had used our knowledge  very well to make the main task the best we could making it a lot more efficient and better for the group as it meant we spread the workload.
