Evaluation for Preliminary task

I was happy with the outcome as were the others, or atleast i hope they were considering it was our first task of this course and on filming. I believe there was no errors as such in this task, we included all of the criteria, everything went to plan as we were based in a small dark room, everytime we shot the same scene we made sure everything was in place. I would say that the only problem that did occur at times was not the continuity but ourselves, as being good friends and being that we like to have a laugh, at times we did find ourselves to be distracted.

I remember having a conversation with Sam and Jack, and Sam brung up the Hitchcock cliche of a swinging lamp, but one it was the time limit we had, and two the room we were using didn't have a swinging lamp so the school would probably would not let us place a new light into the room. So knowing we wanted a cliche involved, we wanted atleast on of the characters in an over the top Chicago accent and a typical dark smokey room. The costume was perfect as me and Jack have that sort of style naturally and was able to provide the clothes ourselves.
