The Package - Media Preliminary Task

The link above takes you to the completed version of our preliminary task. On viewing it, I am pleased with the content and how effectively we worked together as a team to achieve the final outcome.

I feel that many aspects of the production went well. For example I felt that time management was very efficient within my team and we stuck to the schedule we had previously decided on. This was important as it allowed me and my team the opportunity to put more detail in when editing. We could use the extra time to think how effective each individual shot would be when the viewer saw it. Another aspect I felt was very effective was the level of acting and the impact that this had on the final picture. This gave the film a more professional look and made my audience focus on the narrative rather than the acting.

However, on the other hand some areas could be even better if they were done. For example, the 'boss' shoots his worker with an unrealistic toy gun. This prop seems unprofessional and would be hard for the audience to believe the reality of the situation. When i move onto the main task, i will be sure to take added care with what props I will be using and how effective they will be in the final picture. Another factor was the setting and location of my film. As this was my first attempt the location was in my colladge. This however was unrealistic to the storyline of my picture and reduced its proffesional feel. When i produce the main task, I will be sure to make the location as close to what we are trying to achieve as possible.
