Prelim evaluation

 I think that the best part out of the whole experience in creating the prelim was the planning part. I think this because as a group we were able to share our creativity and come up with a creative and interesting storyboard. The storyboard was created with the idea in our heads that we had to draw from the view of the camera, making sure that we included the shot and angle types. Once we had finished planning, our next step was to start filming. This was simple because we as agroup had planned every step, therefor we knew exactly what to do. Planning each shot made the filming very easy and stress free.

However dispite all the planning, we did end up having a very big problem, which we realised after filming, once we went off to edit. The issue was that we forgot to check that the microphone was plugged into the camera- which it wasnt. Thats why when we realised that there was no sound in our prelim, we had to use a Yeti microphone to replace and record the sound that should have been there. Even though this problem did stree our group, in the end im glad that this problem happened because i got to learn how to use the Yeti microphone, which was fun and interesting.

We chose to film in the canteen because there was alot of lighting, so we used it to our advantage, as well as the fact that there was alot of people to film amongst, which made our prelim look more realistic. However, some of the scenes had to be cut short because the people in the canteen got in the way of some of our shots, which was our only disadvantage of filming in the canteen.

Overall, i really enjoyed producing the prelim because i was able to use my creativity, work in a group (team work skills) and also learn new things through our groups problems.
