Evaluation task of post production

When we tried to do our prelim basic task, we did not have enough experience of shooting, editing and cutting. In fact, our editing process in the prelim basic task was so simple. However, in our production of the main task, we literally put much more effort for the film during shooting and editing.
Lighting
Due to the fact that the prelim main task was shooting in the studio where only one bulb is on the top of the basic set to highlight the emotion on the face of the actor and the actress. The lighting system was simple and we did not need to adjust the lighting while editing. The lighting was simple but was very effective as we were not focused on the lighting. In our storyboarding, we did not highlight or shadow anything part so the lighting would be useless if we are not making any high lightings and shadows. In our main task, we still used the original lights in bathroom, but we turned off the light in the corridor when the actress is walking along to the front to create a mysterious and brings the curiosity of the audience. The lights in bathroom provided a natural and realistic scene which we just require a simple and basic lighting to create a comfortable situation.

Location
It consisted three basic brick walls for the prelim basic task. In the studio, we really could not have any improvements of the location as everything has already set up and since the limitation of time did not allow us to adjust anything of the location. We did no research on the prelim basic task, whereas we discussed numbers of choice of the location requirements. There was a perfect set in the main building, the boy’s changing room has a shower and the angle of the shower is perfectly suitable for shooting the actor in shower and the actress in bathroom. The only disadvantage of this bathroom is the sink did not work but we have solved this problem by using the sink next door.

Sound
There was all dialogue to replace the all the sound throughout the film of the prelim basic task. We did not concentrate or change on the sound after editing. As the conversation gives us the details of telling the story so that we do not need to interfere with any extra sound. In the main task, we have to think of some sound effects in order to attract the attention of the audience because there was no dialogue in the film to tell the audience what the story is about, apart from the sound of footsteps, water and the stabbing, we have to make some extra sounds to attract people’s attention and build up tension before the stabbing shot.
