Preliminary Task Evaluation

We evaluated as a class, all the clips that had been created, we found that the other groups clip, was very good at using the 'thirds' rule, and made sure they stuck to the 180 degree rule, however they could have used a greater variety of shot-reverse shot, camera angles during the dialogue in their clip. the lighting they used for the clip also caused problems, because a camera cannot cope with artificial lighting, unless the lighting is professional. This meant that when they tried to film a scene with a low light style of lighting, you couldn't really make out the faces, and their for the facial expressions of the characters in the scene, which could of made the clip look unprofessional. When analysing the original edit of my groups clip, we found that we had not stuck to the 180 degree rule when filming. one of the over shoulder shots was from the wrong angle, we found that this was because we did not pick a particularly good angle to position the characters, which meant that we could not get the angle we wanted to capture the scene, and therefore reverted to an alternative option, but this option was a bad idea, as it made the clip look unprofessional. however, we did find that our group used a wide variety of camera angles when filming the dialogue.
