CONTINUITY PIECE EVALUATION

What did you find difficult about this task?
I didn't find this task difficult as I am re-doing AS media studies. I think that this was alot easier than last year as I already knew what I was doing.

What new skills have you acquired or developed?
I don’t feel that I have developed any new skills regarding the shots that would used whilst filming, but I have developed my camera use skills as we have used a different type of camera from what we used to film with last year, so I have learned how to use this camera; for example, how to turn it on and off, how to record, how to change the battery etc. As well as this I have learnt how to put the camera onto the tripod as well as use the tripod.

What worked well?
I feel that because my team/group had a very simple idea this worked well, mainly because we could spend more time on getting a few different takes of each shot – by doing this we could make sure that we had the best pieces of footage to put together to make our continuity sequence. Also, we had two match on action shots that worked well together and we made sure that we didn’t break the 180 degree rule whilst filming.

What could you or your team have done better?
As I have done AS media before I thought that it would be best that I took “a back seat” whilst filming, this was mainly so that the other members of my team could learn how to film for themselves instead of me taking charge of everything. Even though I didn’t have a very active part during the filming I did give advice to my group and examples or other ways in how a shot could be filmed so that it would look best. I think maybe my role could have been stronger, but I will make sure when it comes to filming the title sequence that I do this.
