We also decided that it would be a good idea to have a credits page/screen at the end of our video. In the end we decided that a simple text shot of 'Blob Production' would be suffcient enough at this stage.

EVALUATION
Overall, I feel that we worked well as a group throughout planning, filiming and editing our video. I believe that our plan was done efficiently and sufficiently which let us get on with our filming A.S.A.P.
I believe we have ticked all the boxes on the criteria therefore making a sucessful preliminary task video. We stuck to the 180 degree rule and added in match on action and put in a little bit of dialogue.
Overall, i believe that all the camera shots and movements used in our video worked well as they got the desired effect. The under the stairs shot worked excellently because it was something different to normal shots but it still managed to show Aidan walking down the stairs. The next camera shot where its a hand cam showing aidan walking down the stairs is effective because it is run into smoothly from the previous shot and it also gives off a secrecy effect because it is like the camera is not supposed to be there. The next shot used in the video is a extreme close up of a lock and a hand undoing it, this is effective because it shows the door being unlocked which enables the next camera shot to happen. A long shot follows this showing Aidan walking through the door and the camera then follows him as he goes to open the door. This is where we used match on action. We filmed Aidan opening the door from behind then showed him opening it from the side but we edited well so it runs smoothly and looks good. We then use another piece of match on action from the inside of the room this time which shows the door closing. The next shot is another close up but on a foot shaking, this gives off the desired effect which is that the person is nervous and worried about the meeting ahead. We then finish the video off with 2 over the shoulder shots, one from behind Scott and one from behind Aidan.
The Editing process went well as i believe we did it sucessfully as everything seems to flow nicely. The was a difficultly or two along the way but we managed to get round them quite easily in the end and if a difficulty like a fast forwarding action comes up again then we know how to deal with it.
Lastly i would like to thank the group.... Aidan 'chest pass' Bryan, Callum 'camera man' Ramsey and Scott 'Scoot' Stevens.
Preliminary Video is DONE!
