EVALUATION

Part 8 – Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to the full product?

Overall the most successful part about my preliminary task was certainly using digital technology, meaning the help of Final Cut Pro. Without this program the whole title sequence would have looked rather plain and boring, as no good effects can be found on something simple, such as iMovie . The most successful part of the use of Final Cut Pro was the flashes and the included sound effects, meaning the flashes at the very beginning of our title sequence. This is mainly because it is very eye catchy as it is very bright, which makes the audience want to watch more.

Researching into Fatal Attraction as well as Pacific Heights was rather successful as it has helped us with the making of our title sequence, and getting an idea of what shots may be included. Also the story narratives have improved our thoughts of how our title sequence could start and it has worked successfully.

The less successful things that took part in our title sequence were the video cameras, this is because they have caught the sounds that were unneeded such as the wind, which has caused problems towards hearing the dialogue. However, this problem has been fixed by re filming the dialogue scenes in better weather conditions.
