- A Match on Action - Person walking through a Door
- A Shot Reverse Shot.
- A Minimum of Two lines of Dialogue.
The above would get me used to using a camera and software ready for future camera work as in our final AS film we may have to use these camera shots within filming.
Our Film below which incorporates all of the above aspects is based around a student who has scratched his teachers car. The scene starts with the teacher driving in with his prize possession his Yellow Car.
We have used Final Cut Express; a film editing software and Soundtrack Pro; a sound track software for films and media, in which to create our final film (below).

I feel our preliminary task was very successful and enabled me to learn how to use the cameras and editing software available in school. If we were too shoot this again I would possibly use two cameras to create a smoother walking through of the door and possibly over dub the dialogue using a boom microphone or use a recording package and have the actors speak into the microphone and record then over dub using the editing software. Although no real difficulties, as we left markers on the floor which could use to reposition the camera if a reshoot was needed. From making this film, I was able to learn that filming takes a very long time and each shot could take several shoots to create a 'perfect' perception of the shot and time management is very key due to a shortage in shooting and editing time available.
