What have new technologies allowed you to do that old ones wouldn’t?

new technologys such as final cut and live type have allowed me to edit my film in new ways as they are more professional and have more options that imovie. final cut allowed me to export our movie with the titles over the top. we have used live type to do our titles instead of using imove this allows me to have a much greater range of options.

What technologies need careful use or planning?

The camera and tripod need careful use and planning this is because you need to know boht when and who to use the camera and tripod. if you are not careful and you use the camera and tripod you could end up with the wrong footage or breaking it.

Another technology that requires planning and careful use is final cut as it is a complex program and things can go wrong very quickly.

•What technologies have you developed your skills in?

 I have developed my skills in many areas, firstly i have developed my skills when using the camera and tripod.

I have developed using the camera and tripod by being able to hold a steady shot when appropriate.

I have developed my skills using imove as I have learned many thing about how to export and how to edit effectively in post preduction.

Q7. Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

There are some similarities and differences between my preliminary task and my opening sequence, since filming my preliminary i feel more confident in my ability's to use and control the camera in the way I want to, I think this is because of the amount of practise that I have had with the camera.

 one similarity in my preliminary task and my finished sequence is the use of shot reverse shot as you can see here.

we chose to use a shot reverse shot in both our preliminary and our thriller opening sequence because it is an effective storytelling tool.
 another storytelling tool that we used in both our preliminary and our opening sequence is a match on action shot, this is important as it helps to keep the continuity consistent throughout.









































Another similarity between the preliminary and the final sequence is that they both follow the 180°.
This is done in the pre lim as I walk over to the table the camera datys on the left side of me.
This is also done in the finished product when shaun walks through the gate as we stay on the right side of him.
