Preliminary Final Draft

In our groups we a preliminary exercise.
This was to show the different styles of filming that we have learnt and how we adapted it to our own filming.






Once we had put our preliminary video together we noticed that the shots we used were really good and that there lots of different types of shots, but the only problem we had was that there was quite a few pauses. This is something that we are going to need to work on so that our opening sequence does not have the same problem.

Changes to Presentation

We made some changes to our first presentation like our storyboard, we went through it shot by shot trying to work out how the sequence would go.
So the slides below are just what we came up with for our storyboard. Mica drew out the pictures of how we described what we wanted it to be like and we all contributed.

First Group Presentation

This was our first group presentation.


This was our very first power point presentation as a group so after we presented it to Miss. we got some really good feed back on how we could improve it.

She gave us some ideas on ways we could shoot certain parts but also she talked about doing a chart to help us. The chart was based on conventions, what we would (use, challenge and develop).
Another thing that we discussed as a group was what other types of things were missing from our presentation like fonts/titles, music, more detail on inspiration, character, conventions settings and story board.
