From my preliminary task to my finished media text i have learnt many things which include;
The ability to film/edit my footage to a coherent and greater quality standard - In my preliminary task we had to film a conversation between two people with inclusion of a match-on-action and an over the shoulder shot. The conversation between the two characters was fragmented due to the length pasues between the dialogue and the angles of which they were filmed at were of a poor standard. In my final media text the dialogue is pieced together in a more natrual free-flowing manner, due to me taking more care in the editing process. I also filmed my characters from a range of angles, which helped the film from not becoming repetitive, and helped to give the audience an incline of the characters deamonor through the use of different shots.
The ability to manage the film-making process- I have learnt that the film-making process is a team effort, even if you are the director, making working as a team a vital ingrediant in the making of the film, as without the actors/actress there is essentailly no film. Therefore you must be open to ideas and get on with your actors/actresses. Timing is also an issue, as filming could be disrupted for a number of reasons including weather and illness to actors/actresses, which was a difficult process, though i was able to complete my film is two-takes, which showed that i had idea of what i was doing.
The ability to work independently - Aswell as working in a team, i have also learnt that working independently is an important attribute when creating a film, this was especially true as i chose to work alone. This meant that i had to come up with an idea, plan and group together people who were not affiliated with the subject, which was difficult but all let me create my own vision. I learnt how to spread out my time effectively, so that i could get the work load done, and set up the basis for my film.
