Evaluation of My Preliminary Task

 Hi Everyone. I've recently uploaded a new blog which was my preliminary task. It lasted less than a minute but that's the point of the preliminary task not to be long. After that I'll start working on my main task which is going to be much longer but before that I first need to evaluate my preliminary task to find out what was good and what needs an improvement. I'm sure that some of the objects are not in focus when the camera records so I will use the magnification button on the Nikon DSLR camera. I'll also solve the problem with the off camera sounds sounds which are not appropriate in a film. I'll either move to another location or wait for the moment when no side sounds or use the boom microphone so the sounds in camera will be more heard. The pointless objects in a shot which do not work on a story should also not be shown in a shot. I'll shoot more angles so it will be easier to edit and understand which angle is more appropriate. And of course I need to develop a script and write it on a storyboard to understand what should happen in each scene.

What I liked in my task is that the story does work so we understand who the main character is. I also liked the music in a film how it started as peaceful jazz and ended like something from "Inception". The acting was pretty good but I think the actors should have had more expression.

In conclusion I can say that I'm pleased with my job but I can't deny that there are some moment which need an improvement. Well, hope that for my main task this won't be a problem

Average Short Film Budget

  Considering that the short film is obviously shorter than feature-length, the less locations take place, the less amount of actors involved, the production itself takes not so much time, so as a result the budget of these films will be way, way lower. Because my film is the Year 13 advanced portfolio, I am not going to have a budget and no one is going to be paid for production. However, while doing the filmmaking, we use the expensive equipment which is the digital camera, camera stand, microphone, sound recording. We're not paying for it for my film but that's what the team usually does when they make a professional movie. Of course with the rise of Internet everyone is able to create a unique project which doesn't have to cost money. Basically, everyone is able to film a short movie even on his or her phone. But I was talking about the film in which a large team is involved, something which is the work not only of one person (director/screenwriter) but also of everyone...

Evaluation of My Preliminary Task 2023

During this weekend I have filmed the short extract which will then be developed into a big short film which I'll release in the end. Though in my opinion, for preliminary task the job was done pretty well, I still think that there are some aspects to improve. The first thing to which I payed attention to is the wind noise which interferes the audiences to immerse into the film. It happened because though I was given a mic, I found it useless because my extract didn't have any dialogues so as I thought, there was no point in regulating the sound, I was mistaken. When I start making my main task, I'll definitely use the mic in order to prevent such situations. Another thing which needs an improvement is the moment in extract when the protagonist sees the group of boys walking and then smiles. The thing is that in my script they had to be just one girl with whom male protagonist falls in love. In addition there had to be the close ups so the audiences would know what's so...
