Jack's Preliminary task evaluation.

To start off our project on the Childrens films we had to do a preliminary task and film a sequence based on what we wanted to do. We had a sort of guideline sheet that we had to follow. We had to film a close up of someone opening a door, then a reaction shot, a talking scene etc. In my group we decided we would film an affair. To keep good continuity we had to stick to the rule of 180 degrees this would stop any confusion. We had a few problems when filming to begin with because the area in which we chose to shoot our sequence was quite busy. We were also not allowed to film anything outside the library as we were making to much noise. Our short sequence went well in the end even though we had a couple of problems. The storyline we had was quite easy to follow and I think we used some good over the shoulder shots for talking. To make our sequence better if we were going to film it again I think we could organise what we were doing a bit better and make sure we picked to film in a less crowded area.
