The above video, is one of the final cuts of the preliminary task movie. The difference in the 3 final cuts is the soundtracks used. I think we all did good jobs with the sound as they fit well with the genre and tempo of the movie. Different camera angles are used to build tension such as POV and high angle shots. The minimal dialogue aids the movie as most films in this stalker sub-genre of thriller, do not contain much speech and conversation. The continuity was quite good apart from one scene where a person appears where he wasn't before, however it doesn't look bad as it looks like it may have been an intentional sudden appearance as the music is also shocking at this point. The other poor bit of continuity is in the final scene which I was absent from the filming of, as in this scene there are many people standing around who were not there before, however this could be covered up with the idea that the criminal is standing around pretending that he doesn't know what happened to the victim, and then the man who gave the victim his wallet before the incident, sees the criminal, and figures out or knows from previous incidents, that he did the crime.

Preliminary Task Evaluation

Comparing 'The Accident' and 'The Door'
'The Accident' was the first movie. The main task was to create a good storyline while using a variety of camera angles. The first objective was completed as was the second one however looking back, the main problem is the continuity in the filming and editing. The main objective on the second movie; 'The Door' was then to illustrate good continuity.
'The Door' was a success as the movie showed near perfect continuity, including during the most difficult to film scene, of a character going through a door.
