1.What have you learned during the making of your preliminary task?

During the making of my preliminary task i have learned a plethora of skills I think will be useful in the future, not only in this subject but when I finish the course and move onto different things. For example i have learned how to use a camera to make films and clips. Prior to this course i had never used a camera for this purpose so the making of this film was all new to me so even the smallest of things like learning how to focus a camera was a new skill acquired for me. Also i learned a few things about editing, even though i didn't do much of the editing i think the bits i did were effective and correctly executed.

2.Areas of success

I think our main area of success was the time it took for us to complete our filming. With the knowledge of how long the editing and organisation of the clips would take we prioritized finishing filming ASAP. We all stopped behind school one day and finished our filming in little over an hour. This then gave us around 3 weeks to finalize the editing of the piece and put it all together. This made the task a lot less stressful as we were under much more flexible deadlines.

3. Areas for development.

The area in which i think our group would be leadership. In our group we all had ideas that we thought were good and it was hard to decide between us whose idea were the best or right ones. I think that with the right hierarchy this would of been so much simpler.
