This is my answer to question 6 of my evaluation. I chose to answer this question in the form of a powerpoint. 

Question 6 media evaluation

Evaluation - Question 7

Problems with our filming

When we began to edit our opening sequence once we got all of the shots, we came across some problems with the shots.

One of the problems was the high angle shot of the district nurse looking up the stairs through the mirror.

After beginning to edit our sequence, we realised that somebodys feet were seen in the mirror. This means our continuity was not very good , as we tried to show the audience that the house was empty and noone else was in it apart from the district nurse. We removed this clip and replaced it with a shot of just her feet going up the stairs :

Another problem we came across was the opening clip of the district nurse driving to the house in her car:

This clip made our sequence lack continuty as you can see a man driving instead of the district nurse actor. This is because the actor is not old enough to drive so we had to ask someone else. We planned to try and edit him out of the sequence but we were unable to disguise him. 

We are now planning to get more clips of inside the car ( changing gear) so that we can replace that when the clip shows his face.

Evaluation ideas - Question 7

The final question i need to answer in order to complete my evaluation is 'Looking back at your perliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?'

This question is asking me to explain what i think has improved. I can explain that my planning, editing, shotlist, camera work and story boarding has all progressed.

I learnt how to overcome problems with filming and editing. Such as lack of continuity, we learnt how to find out which parts we need to film or an alternative with editing to improve the continuity.

I have developed my camera skills, because in my perliminary task it was simple shots however in my main task our shots have developed and we have also included titles and sound tracks.

The sixth question i have to answer is 'What have you learnt about technologies from the process of conducting this product?'

This questions means i have to discuss what technology i used in order to complete my opening sequence. I will dicuss the technology i used for pre-production, production and post production.

 I could answer this question in a powerpoint. I will explain how i used a mobile phone to arrange our filming and explain why it was useful. I will also show that i used a camera to film my opening sequence.

Evaluation ideas - Question 5

The fifth question for my evaluation is 'How did you attract/address your audience?'

To answer this question i have to dicuss how i made it appeal to the age group we are aiming for.
I will dicuss how i attracted my audience from inside the film, and also how i promote it to them.

Evaluation ideas - Question 4

The fourth question i need to answer in order to evaluate my perliminary task is 'Who would be the audience for your media product?'

This question is asking me who we aim to watch our opening sequence. I could answer this question in the style of a news broadcast.

We are aiming for teenagers who like scary movies and working adults,  this is so they can relate to the actor of the district nurse within the sequence.We believe it should be a 15 and over film.
