Evaluation Activity 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product?

Since our preliminary task our understanding of techniques and how they can be used.

An example of this is our match-on-action shots. In the preliminary task we used it to show a door opening, beginning in a close up shot of the handle to a mid shot of me having walked through.










However, in Animus match-on-action was used with a worm-eye view and a birds eye view to show a unique and imaginative shot. This shows how we have advanced in using the simple technique to make a complex looking piece.


















Another example of our progression is in using the 180 degree rule. In the preliminary task it was used conventionally, abiding by the rule to avoid confusing audiences and breaking continuity.

In Animus, we broke away from that while Kate is being beaten. By jumping from one side to another during the attack, the viewer is disorientated and hopefully further affected by the violence.
