Coursework Preliminary Task
Before we could even begin filming and editing our Preliminary Task, we had to prepare, we did this by writing out our scripts, deciding which shots to use and how we was going to make it run smoothly. We also drew up our Production Schedule, so we knew what to keep to and so that we could make sure we did everything up to date and on time.
Script
Characters: Person A, Person B
Setting
Person B sitting on chair at table, already in the room. Person A opens door walks in and sits opposite Person B at table.
Script
Person A: Why’d you do it?
Person B: Do what?
Person A: You know what you did.
Person B: If you’re talking about the party you’re talking to the wrong person mate.
Person A: I can’t believe you did it. You promised me.
Person B: No I didn’t.
Person A: (Storm out, slams door).

Evaluation
Even though we had a slight setback with our production schedule, we still managed to get it filmed and edited in one double lesson, this meant we had still kept in our time frame and didn't have to use another lesson to finish it.
We started off with preparation, we wrote out the script, production schedule and what shots we was going to use, after this was completed, we moved on to writing our storyboards.
When it came to filming, we found it very easy as we only needed two actors and one room, plus, the piece did not need to be very long, as it is only a Prelim Task. We started off by filming the entering scene, in this, I used an extreme close up, a following shot and a mid shot. When that part was filmed, we began to film the dialog, the actors were very good and remembered their lines, for the most of this conversation, I used the 'Over the Shoulder' shot, as this worked well to capture the emphasis of the argument. When this scene was filmed, the last one we had to do was when Charliiee (Person A) storms out in anger at the end, this was a quick and easy scene to shoot, in this one I used a mid shot.
After we had all of our footage, we came back to the classroom and uploaded it all. To start off we opened Premier Pro, and imported all of our footage, when this was done, we began to capture it all, we did this scene by scene so that we could easily place them all where they needed to go, and so we could organize where all the re-filmed clips had to be placed. After this, for a short time cut the parts that were no use, sorted out the audio and then finally put it all together.
