Evaluation Question 7: Preliminary Task
The preliminary task was exceedingly helpful towards my understanding of putting together a short film as it taught me the logistics behind direction of a crew and also camerawork, which we later implemented in our short film 'South of Heaven'. We adhered to the 180 degree rule which we learnt prior to filming the preliminary video and we also used match-on-action shots to create a clear flow of events. Our preliminary task taught us about insert shorts which we also used in our film to give the character Tom a clear incentive (to the audience) to carry on with the film. When developing the preliminary task, we had much less creative freedom than in the short film, which in turn made it a lot easier to film and piece together. The preliminary task served as a constructive outline to our film-making careers and things we were taught about in lessons were made clear to us when we actually had to put them to use.
