After conducting our two minute opening to a film I was able to see and understand the importance of a range of camera shots for one scene.In our film shots such as close ups on certain parts of the character’s body helped create a mystery as it shows you the character but not her full identity.Also close ups helped us highlight important props, which is just as important as when extreme long shots are used to set the scene.Close ups help create a mood, for instance when there was a close shot of the bruise on Danni’s arm it helps create focus on it so the audience know there is a storyline related to it.

We learnt to use a new editing software called Power Director, this is the software we used to create our produce.My team and I had already had a practice go at using this software when creating our preliminary task. We learnt to use different techniques such as fade, which helped connect one scene to another and gave us a continuous flow through scenes.

The preliminary task helped us in our final production, as whilst doing that task is where we learnt to do match on action and we used that in our final two minute opening of our film.

After filming inside and outside, we found that lighting really effects the mood created.The lighting inside was much darker than the lighting outside, this mirrors the effect of the mood and the tone of the film.
