During the production of my prelim video I developed many skills that I plan to use whilst filming my real video. Some skills that I was particularly good at were my communication, teamwork and leadership skills as I was able to put my point across to my group alongside listening to their ideas. Also, I played a part as the co-director whilst filming and was able to successfully tell my team members what should be taking place at what time. One skill that I didn't do too well in was editing as I was unsure of how to use the software but I plan to familiarise myself with the key aspects of it before I film my next video.
In our prelim video we successfully used a shot reverse shot when Tristen and David were talking about the missing money. Additionally, we used a match cut at the start of our video when Tristen was opening the kitchen door. We also attempted the 180 degree rule however made a few mistakes during the filming that we had to edit out. If I had more time, I would've checked the footage after every few shots so I could check for any mistakes that we could've made whilst filming.
By completing this prelim video I was able to understand the importance of planning before filming using storyboards and shot lists. The storyboards gave us a clear storyline for our film and the shot list made filming our video much easier as we had an idea of what angles and techniques we were planning to use. These two forms of planning were very effective and made the entire filming process more efficient.
