Looking back at your preliminary task (the continuity editing task), what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

The preliminary task helped us to develop the skills we needed in order to make the thriller, and also helped us identify which areas we were most uncertain with.
The editing for us was the most difficult thing, as none of us had used Final Cut Pro in great detail in the past.
Using the preliminary task we knew what shots we had to use in order to make the Thriller Opening look professional, we knew how to storyboard effectively and the research helped us develop key idea for the Thriller.

The main progression from out prelimary task to our Thriller was our confidence in shot types and use of camera. We used many different camera types such as close ups, match on action and point of view shots, though many were taken out in the editing process.

We as a group, feel much more comfortable with the equipment. We are all able to use the camera effectively and are all confident in using Final Cut Pro to edit our work.

We think that our final product was succesful. We used a range of differnt shot types, lighting and sound in order to make our thriller as professional as we could using the limited resources that we had. We were able to use our research, such as the questionairre results, to appeal to our key demographic and we were succesful in doing so.
