This is Ollie (me), Max, Chris and Paul's Preliminary Task which we think is very good. The only set back that we had was, when we got round to filming the second part of our task we changed the location of it, so we had to go back to a previous shot and also change the dialogue in the shot so that it would make sense in the task. Apart from that everything went on like clockwork.
The Preliminary Task asked us to create a scene where there are two people talking across a table and to have 2 lines of dialect. At first for this task we didn't completely do as the task said as the second part of the film where the two characters are outside and from there onwards until the end was we had as the whole task. We then realised what we needed to do and so what we did was add more shots at the beginning, so the story would be understood. The Preliminary task also asked us to put in reverse shot, match on action and to keep to the 180 degree rule. this we had achieved in the second part of our film but of course it did not have the two lines of dialect or the scene over the table.
The match on action was first used when Paul put his hand on the chair, this was a close up of his hand and then went back out to see him sit down. The second match on action was used when we had a close up of Paul's hand on the door handle, he then went on through the door but just as we had the camera angle switch to be in front of him coming through the door straight towards the camera. Throughout the film we used the over the shoulder shot which is edited into a shot reverse shot. In the first over the shoulder camera angle it was of the conversation over the table between Paul and Ollie (me). Once the conversation had finished, non diegetic music was played to added atmosphere to the scene.
