Preliminary Task

My group have finished filming for the preliminary task 'Feed the Fish' on DV camera and have uploaded our footage onto iMovie. We are hoping to edit it as soon as possible and then start progressing on our storyboard for the main task. Storyboarding has proved to be an effective planning method as when I was filming for the preliminary task, I found that it really helps when shooting footage, in order to achieve the right shots, angles and maintain continuity. Before filming for the preliminary task, we all watched various opening sequences of low-budget British films such as ‘Fish Tank’ and ‘Control’ to find inspiration for our own. We’re currently in the process of developing our ideas and will continue to do this after completing our preliminary task. The benefits of the preliminary include understanding the importance of planning and working together as a team. It has also got us into the creative flow and allowed us to put our knowledge of camera shots and angles into practice.
