Evaluation 7: Looking back at your preliminary task, what do you feel you have learned from it to product?
Our preliminary Video is vastly different to the one we currently made, since we did not intend to make any kind of follow up video. This has lead to some drastic changes:
Camera quality:
Our camera-work and quality was much better in our final piece than our preliminary video. This was in part due to the quality of the final piece camera being superior overall than the preliminary video, as well as general experience on how to successfully handle a camera improving. This allowed us to make decent tracking shots in better quality than stationary shots in the first.
Also, the lighting improved. This is because in the first, when the blinds were open, there was to much glare, and when closed it was too dark. We eventually decided to keep it dark since at least you can see what's going on. However in the final, the lighting was much better, though this was due to both the camera, and the outside lighting.
Sound:
In the first piece, there was no non-diagetic sounds, with any and all sounds being diagetic, due to them being natural. However, in the final piece we removed most diagetic sound, such as twigs snapping and wind, instead replacing it with non-diagetic music.
Continuity/continuity editing:
We didn't have any props with us, side from the USB stick, and a rock we found that we thought would make a good murder weapon. We had no special costumes in either, just a horse mask in the first to try and show something weird was going on, and various hoodies in the second to show anonymity and to try and create mystery. As far as continuity goes in our shots, we didn't use many camera angles that would make this a problem, except the POV shot, which fits in as it's meant to, creating no continuity problems.

Evaluation 4: Who would be the audience for your media product.
Evaluation 4
Due to the nature of dropbox, which is a storage space, there is no embed code. however if I was to put this through slideshare, I would not fill the criteria of using 5 different websites, hence why this link is the best available solution.
