Evaluation: "Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product? "

When i first started the preliminary task I had very little knowledge of how to edit video. Since the preliminary project I've learnt about continuity editing, as well as shot reverse shot and how edit things like match on action. I've also learnt how to add in and edit audio and over lay multiple video tracks.
I've learnt the forms and conventions for thriller films, and some forms and conventions of other genres as well.
I developed the ability to storyboard and plan a project, including shot lists and scripts, this was very useful for the main task. The preliminary task also gave me the chance to work in a group with some of my classmates, which gave me an experience of what it was like to have a specific thing to do within the group, which ultimately helped us complete the main task.

This was me using the cross dissolve function to
transition between shots, i also used this
in our main project

This was my first time experemineting with
black and white, which i then used in the main project

This is what i progressed to after the preliminary,
overlapping videos with an added text layer and a
black and white filter.

This was me using a red filter to keep in line with the forms
and conventions of thriller films, it's also an over-the shoulder
shot, to show the characters perspective.
