Task 7 - Looking back at Your Preliminary Task, what do you Feel you have Learnt in the Progression from it to full Product?

over the shoulder shot in the prelim is used to show the conversation. 

close up is used to show the facial expression, we encompass this close up shot into our
singular tracking shot in our thriller

We achived the same mid shot as the prelim but we encompassed it into our
singular tracking shot.

Our thriller proved more in depth than the prelim as we condensed the shots used in the prelim into a singular tracking shot. Although the thriller was more complicated, it could be seen as simplified.

I found story boarding with out dialogue much more interesting as I could use non diagetic music to add suspense and feel to the thriller, instead of having to focus the audience on someone talking. Although there is a small section of dialogue in our thriller, the music still effects the thriller, we were not able to use music in the prelim because of the focus being on the dialogue. Eye line matches and over the shoulder shots were not used because of the lack of dialogue between the characters, we built up the thrilling feeling by focusing on minimal objects. i found this much more interesting as not so much dialogue had to be captured to make the sequence run smoothly. The use of camera has changed dramatically since our prelim task. As we used no cuts in our thriller, we captured everything that needed to be seen in one long tracking shot. This helped us to not use unnecessary shots such as the over head shot used in the prelim, which didn't actually make sense. we broke the 180 degree rule in order to make our tracking shot work, eye-line matches were not used, and close-ups were zoomed into as and when needed. framing was important as it helped differentiate between what needed to be seen and what was just in the shot for the busy effect we were trying to create. we felt it was harder to frame in our thriller than our prelim because of the amount of background movement, but we felt it worked nicely. In sound, we learnt how to create the intended crowed sounds by adding layers upon layers of different cheering noises as well as our own we recorded. we also distorted our ambient sounds to get the feeling that the crowed and music can be heard but not perfectly from that room, so the sound was 'blurred' to create that  effect. he demonstrated our ability to master new technology such as Final Cut and After Effects to create our thriller and make it more professional than our previous prelim task. This showed a more sophisticated Thriller.
