Evaluation on Preliminary Exercise

18/10/12; Started to shoot our pre-lim exercise.
Group Members: Lace, Farhana and Palwasha

Shooting the preliminary exercise was a good way to get use to using different shot types and filming in a continuous order; this helped show what our strength and weaknesses were. We used the same strategy we would normally use when starting to film our final piece  for example we made a quick script and synopsis, and made notes of what shots we would use. We also gave each other roles in order to make the shooting easier.
Our idea consisted of 2 girls in a school, where one was waiting impatiently for the other one to give her a important message. The girl eventually arrives and gives her an envelope which has someone's death written all over it. We decided to film this because it was a good opportunity to use the 180' rule, close ups, and long shots which help give the feel of the environment and the tension they were in.
In general i think once we finish editing it will be a success and would've helped us with ideas for our final piece.
