Evaluation. Question 7We have learnt a lot from our perlim task and the ideas we had used have been developed into our opening title sequence to get the best possible outcome. At the very start of our perlim task you see Lee walking into a room opening the door, this is a classic continuity shot as we shoot from one side of the door at the start, to the other side of the door at the end of that shot. We used this concept in our opening title sequence when Hannah walks through the door into the kitchen. We use this technique also when walks through the door to get outside and also when he walks into the garage.
Saving time To save time we did not shoot the scene from two different sides we just did it from the one side and this saved us a lot of time and effort and we still got the same effect. Techniques In our prelim task we used the shot reverse shot technique to shoot the conversation between Lee and Jack about the football game the night before. Not only did we use the shot reverse shot we used the 180 degree rule, this makes the shot look more professional and adds a good flow to the scene. We used this technique in our opening title sequence also when Hannah and Rick are talking about the drinks at the very start of the sequence. This makes the opening sequence look more professional and flow better as it sets a good example from the start. Practice makes perfect If we did not practice this technique of the 180 degree rule in our prelim task it would have not been so successful in our final opening sequence. We made many mistakes in our prelim task and we learnt from these when filming our final footage to make it less time consuming and more professional. When editing our prelim task to create the perfect continuity scenes we made many mistakes, like making the opening of the door look unnatural and 180 degree rule was sometimes not put into place. Due to us learning from our mistakes like this when it came to filming and editing our final opening Horror sequence, "The Chaining" it was made a lot easier and we could make it look a lot more professional and ultimately get the better grades. |
