    In the preliminary task, the filmmaker's group did no planning and improvised the story and shots. They faced issues like breaking the 180 degree rule and outside noise disrupting filming. For the main production, they used the same camera and some similar shots but improved in other areas. They had to film multiple times due to issues like a lack of close-up shots, unfocused footage, and unsatisfactory acting in early versions. Overall, the filmmaker believes the main production was a massive success compared to the preliminary task because they learned from mistakes to plan better and get the right footage.

    7 Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you thing that you have
    learned in the progression from it to the main product?
    Throughout the construction of the preliminary task, my group and I did not do any
    planning. The story as well as the shots used were mostly improvised throughout
    the whole process. We used the camera that we used in the preliminary task, the
    Canon 700D, to film the main production because we were familiar with how to use
    it. In the preliminary task, the only sound that we used was diegetic dialogue as the
    production was extremely short, although we could have used other sound to make
    it better. There were some similarities between our preliminary task and the final
    product. For example, in cinematography, we used two shots and also over the
    shoulder shots in both productions.

    In editing, we used match on action and shot-reverse-shot to show the power


    difference between the protagonist and the antagonist. Some difficulties that we
    faced while filming the preliminary task were that the camerawork was not of a
    good standard. An example of this is that we
    broke the 180 degree rule multiple times. We
    also faced problems with the sound as while
    filming, we were being disrupted by the noise
    from the outside. Because of this we were
    forced to film more than twice and spent more
    time than needed on the task. Also, another
    reason for us having to film again was the poor
    acting by our cast that we had originally
    selected. We had to go with these actors because of the limitation of actors
    available to us. We also faced many difficulties with the main product. One of these
    was that in the first filming session, we didnt use any close-up shot. We had to have
    close-up shots as it is a part of the codes and conventions of thriller and therefore
    we had to go back and film again so that we can get the shots we need. Another
    problem was that we felt that we had chosen the wrong actors and werent happy
    with the footage from the first filming session, we had to therefore film again and
    this time we got the right cast to act resulting in a better final product.
    One of the biggest problem that we faced was the focus of the camera. This was
    because none of us knew how to put the camera on focus the first time around
    which resulted in out of focus footage. Because of this we had film again to produce

    better footage after learning how to put the camera on focus. We feel that our main
    production is a massive success compared to our preliminary task. This is because
    we had taken notice of the flaws from the preliminary task as well as the first two
    filming session to produce the best footage that we couldve which resulted in a
    successful final product. We had planned and done research which enabled us to
    work at our best as a group as well as individually.
