Evaluation: Question 6

6) How have your skills developed from the preliminary task?
Since the preliminary task, we have learnt new skills such as how to hold a camera, and frame it correctly.

Framing from our preliminary was not so good, the frame did not look straight and therefore the picture looked as though it was taken from a diagonal angle.

As you can see the framing of the shot, is not straight in contrast to our actual media product, we specifically worked on our framing and made it more straight, this made a massive difference to our media product as the shot just looks a lot better.

 Also we added captions such as names of the people who were included within the media product, we also added music in which enhanced the performance side of the film. Also we changed the picture to a grey scale, this effects were all used to enhance the film. All of these were not included within the preliminary task. 

Lighting does not seem to be good here, however this shot gave us the opportunity
to work on lighting and watch out for it whilst filming for our Media product

From the differences within the products we can see that the preliminary task just looks as though were were experimenting with the camera; taking advantage of what we could do with it. The shots were just basic and there was no effects added, although the product is not 'crisped' it gave us the chance to familiar ourselves with the camera.
In contrast to our own media product, we took advantage of effects, music and framing making the piece look a lot more professional. Lighting was used effectively and continuity is constant within the product.
