Task 7 Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

We Decided to shoot our preliminary task in the edit suit because it has basic artificial light and a white wall. we were in a simplistic mood. we all did fairly equall parts in the task, we all diredted a sceen or actors used the camara. to begin with the camara seemed complicatesd and i was terrified of it dropping off the tripod, but in the end i realised it wouldnt and the shoot became really fun.
we gave the actors the simple story board so they could have a few minuteds to add their own versions on it. we learnt about bubbeling the camara, like a spirit level, so that the shot isnt scewed. we used the white wall to get a white balance so that the colours are properly picked up on camara. we used a telephone which happened to be at hand at the time by way of props. As each shot progressed, we started trying out different thing such as extremed close-ups and depth of field. when it came to editing all of out shots were cut with jump cuts which made the task look jumpy and imature but it really helped us understand the basics of editing.
In our Preliminary task, I feel as though we did not use the room properly. The table was placed in a bad position because it cut the actor sitting down away from the rest of the image, as the wall stopped. Also, we had many items in the background which did not relate to the preliminary task. But as our first time using the Nx5 profeshional cameras.
