	Examples from Prelim	Examples from Final Film	How does this show your development?
Planning and research – choose 3 examples of planning that you improved upon	Storyboard in pictures	Storyboard in detailed drawings w/ shot types            Used a production schedule	We actually planned the whole sequence for our final film, so it would be so much more of a success.
Use of camera angles,shot types, distances and quality of framing	Medium shot Close up shot Rule of thirds	Close up shot Extreme close up shot Medium shot Wide shots Establishing shot Over the shoulder Earth worm angle Low angle Camera Pan Camera Tilt Tracking movement Rotated frame to make straight	My group and I learnt that we had to show we properly knew all the shot types, therefore showed a variety of angles, shots and framing types for the final product
Compare lighting	Great lighting Natural lighting	Good lighting (could have been improved) Tungsten lighting
Compare your use of sound	Camera microphone	GarageBand soundscape Foley sound x1	We made the music for the sequence by hand for this project, unlike the Prelim, which we didn’t think about
Compare the editing skills used (from match cutting to adding transitions)	FCP used to cut clips (very seamlessly)	FCP used to cut clips Add music More match cuts Use transitions x2 Change colour of picture to merge with other clips Motion used to create titles	We used FCP to the best of our knowledge and made sure we used a lot of different techniques whilst editing, including experimentations with Motion
Compare the mise en scene	No special outfits. Wasn’t taken into consideration	Outfits that suited each character Shot in a school building Toilets Childish conflict between teen character	We had a proper, thought-through story-line
Compare the use of titles	None	Moving titles-effect titles Coloured titles	We used Motion to create titles, something we hadn’t ever used before the Prelim.
