Our preliminary task was: A continuity task involving filming and editing a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character, with whom she/he then exchanges a couple of lines of dialogue. This task should demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. We then had to use this to create the main task, which was to: create the titles and opening of a new fiction film, to last a maximum of two minutes.
Doing the preliminary task allowed us obtain basic skills and understanding of how to use the equipment we would be using in the main task, for example the camcorder and 'Final Cut express'. However, proceeding with the main task gave us more of an understanding of how it worked and allowed to develop our skills on how to use it correctly.
However, we did not use any different methods between the two tasks.
