Preliminary Exercise-Evaluation

Group: Me, Muna, Chanelle and Elle. 

We worked as a group to film our story for the preliminary exercise. By taking different roles and helping each other out, we managed to work together sufficiently. This will help us with our own real production work. We managed to put together an idea to film about and created a rough storyboard to find out what shot types would go best with the scenes. We did not write a script as we decided to have no dialogue in production to make the acting and storyline stand out.
Me, Elle and Muna were actors and Chanelle was the Director/Cameraman. However we all had a chance to place the camera in a certain place that we wanted or fix a particular shot to familiarize ourselves with the tripod and camera.
Within the filming, a task was include the 180 degree rule. We did this successfully by filming from different levels and angles on one side of the line so that when edited together it flows smoothly while obeying the rule.
On the other hand, a difficulty we came across was filming in the location we wanted. As it was on the school grounds, not every room was accessible. In the end we found a suitable classroom to film in and we were happy with it.
