'Looking back at your preliminary tasks, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?' (Activity 7)

Looking back from our preliminary task we have learnt a lot. We learnt many practical skills like how to edit a sequence and match the continuity and this was of great help in our finial piece. As the preliminary task was really short we were able to make sure everything matched the action. These precise skills made us think harder in our final film, as we knew what we had to look for and make sure it worked. This help greatly when we needed to consider the 180-degree rule when our character was watching TV, if we cut back to this scene and the camera was on the other side with the TV and character swapped this would confuse the audience and potentially detract from our sequence.
