Thriller evaluation question 7 - Daniel Johnstone


7.  Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learned in the progression from it to the full product?

I feel that I have learnt a lot since the preliminary task, especially in the 4 areas of camerawork, editing, mise en scene and sound. Of course in the preliminary we only had to include 3 techniques, but in the thriller my group and I brought those techniques and used them effectively, using a variety of shots to illustrate key areas of our film, the extreme close up of the keys to portray a match on action, keeping the 180 degree rule within the classroom and of course something I learnt to do during the film, was a green screen, with it we were able to a create a realistic news report in which told us the story. Of course my editing skills were vastly improved. In the preliminary my editing skills were very amateur, constantly asking for help, but in this opening I rarely ever had to ask, and taught myself  garageband, titling and  how to include copy right free music. So all in all I improved a great amount since the preliminary, teaching how to use garageband etc. but most importantly the 4 areas of camerawork, editing, mise en scene and sound.

The chasing scenes were a lot more exciting than just filiming in a classroom and brought a challenge!

This was our preliminairy, now you compare this setting to our thriller! and how much more exciting it was.
