Preliminary Task - The Final Lesson.

First of all, we had a problem, there were a few clips missing in our film and the audio was corrupted. We did not know how this happened as nobody had touched the clip since we completed it in our last lesson. I then found a back-up file amongst our drive as the software we use has an auto-saving function. We then had our finished film that we had at the end of Thursday, so Amie and I converted the film into an .AVI on Adobe Premiere Pro CS4 using the export tool. Then we repeated this process, but instead converted it into a .H.264 video file so we could upload it onto Youtube faster as it makes it a smaller file.
Our teacher then let us upload our film onto Youtube and showed us all how. On the first try, it didn't work but Amie had a second attempt. It had uploaded sucessfully so she showed Aidan and I the end result, which we all approved of.

Here is our Preliminary Task Film:


There were some advantages and disadvantages to our film. One disadvantage was that it had an incredibly basic storyline; there was specific story to it and also it was limited. I think we all would have thought of a better storyline if we had a little more time and if we had executed audience research into what would be more interesting. However there were advantages; we included interesting camera angles and movements and when we turned it into greyscale and added transitions it looked so much better.
