Question two of the evaluation of the two min opening film

How many mistakes did you make, and did you improve in the main task having made errors in the preliminary exercise?

The mistakes gained seemed to be greater in this main task compared to the prelimanry task with my previous group. The problems that occurred was that the original cast that we used were perfect but we could only get them on a certain day, so after we filmed one day and then uploaded it another, we came across that it could not up load due to the camera we used, so we had to use another camera and film. But we could not get the same actors, which then caused another problem that we then had to re-film everything, and find new actors within a short space of time before the deadline. Another problem was that because we filmed outside it was the weather, at certain periods of the day it rained, and because we could not film in one whole day, some days were darker than others, and when we tryed filming one day we couldn’t because it was to dark for the audience and camera to pick up anything. One other problem we came across was that we came across whilst filming was the battery life of the camera, and the problem as discussed as before with not being able to up-load, but due to the battery’s short life, this caused the filming to be done on seperate days, which lead to the weather changes. Being that the first camera wasn’t a school one, we now learnt that we should stick to the school’s handheld camera’s.

I have also learnt a way in which to capture a moment as i was the main camera-man in this task, whilst compared to the prelimanry task i was the main actor.

So i believe that for both tasks, there were more problems for this one, but both had separate problems.
