When comparing our preliminary film to our final piece there is a big difference in the steps we took to progressing to the stage we strived to. There are obvious differences between our basic camera work for example. A lot of our work in the preliminary is out of focus and blurry.

Another progression that is visible is our variation of shots in out final cut piece which ranges more than that of the preliminary. The shots match the situation and there is also much better use of steadi-cam. This has allowed us to show our better understanding of shots and enables us to utilise it well in our film.

Another aspect in which i think we really did well in trying to improve is the dialogue in our films. The sound in our final cut is much clearer and and story is more plausible with better acting.

Another feature in our preliminary is our use of live type in creating titles which made our film look a lot more realistic than the preliminary which was shot straight from the start. This was important in introducing our film to the audience and giving the initial detail of our film.
