Analysis of Preliminary Task

Our Preliminary task: 

Analysis: 

Shot 1:

• We started with a low angle focusing on the feet as the door opens
• You here the door open and squeak 

Shot 2:

• We then cut to an wide angle shot as we see Rebecca cross the room
• We hear the end of the squeaky door

Shot 3:

• Next we cut to a close up of the paper and pencil being thrown down on the table 
• You can hear the paper and pencil hit the desk so this is match on action sound. 

Shot 4:

• We then cut back to the wide angle shot as we heard Rebecca and Christina exchange a few words.

Shot 5:

• Then we cut to a high angle over the shoulder of Rebecca
• This symbolises that Rebecca has more power in the situation so is intimidating to Christina

Shot 6: 

• We then cut to an low angle close up of Christina as she says her line
• We did this so you can clearly see her reaction when she speaks

Shot 7: 

• Then we cut to back to the high angle over the shoulder shot of Rebecca
• This again makes Rebecca look like she appears to have more power in the situation

Shot 8:

• We then cut to the wide angle
• We did this so you can clearly see the height difference between the two characters and so you can see how the power differentiates between to two of them 

Shot 9:

• We cut back to the low angle over the shoulder shot of Christina
• This again shows how she is the weaker one in the situation

Shot 10: 

• Next we cut to a mid shot of Rebecca leaving and the door starting to close
• You can start to hear the squeak of the door which is diegetic sound

Shot 11:

• We cut to a super close up shot of Christina's face 
• We did this so we can see her reaction clearly 

Shot 12:

• We cut to the end of the door closing 
• We did this so it leaves the audience wondering what will happen next

I think that we were successful because we made a simple preliminary task that enabled us to practise filming with the cameras and editing with Adobe Premiere.

We have learnt how to use the cameras properly and how to film so for example we had to do the wide angle first so we get an idea of what the scene is and then we go on to film the other shots in the scene and if we had time we filmed more detailed shots. 

So overall I think we were successful.
