Evaluation - Question Seven

Looking back at the preliminary exercise, what have you learnt? Is this product better then the original construction?


A great deal has been learnt from completing a preliminary task prior to our final production.  It allowed us a detailed insight into the factors of completion and also allowed us to build our skills with the software.  This worked particularly well to our advantage as it saved much time and allowed us to feature complex edits.  The biggest lesson learnt, is time management.  It is essential in media orientated work that deadlines are met consistantly.  This was hard at first but we made thorough plans and arrangements to ensure our time was well managed.  This was improved dramatically the second time we filmed and edited, we believe this was because had already experienced the kind of time restrictions. 

The titles we have made are a considerable improvement from last time, they are now animated and have music.  This introduces the film brilliantly and creates a sense of proffesional apprhension for the viewer.

In conclusion, our final piece is definitely better our two preliminary tasks. As a group we feel that we have fully progressed from a low quality, low storyline to a high quality enigmatic plot that engages the audience very well. Overall we are very happy with the finished product.
