We worked&nbsp;in&nbsp;partners and were given the prompt of &#8216;You&nbsp;haven&#8217;t&nbsp;left the house in months.

In this task we brainstormed ideas, made a mood board, created a&nbsp;storyboard&nbsp;and then made and presented our pitch.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through this task I learnt\u00a0there\u00a0is\u00a0lots of factors to consider before production.\u00a0Additionally\u00a0setting a clear plan helped guide us\u00a0in the correct direction and prevent us from going off topic\u00a0especially\u00a0since it is only a 30 sec scene.\u00a0\u00a0Our audience feedback was\u00a0mainly positive, however\u00a0i\u00a0feel that we should\u00a0used\u00a0more of a variety of techniques to further\u00a0encourage our creativity.\u00a0\u00a0 <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prelim Task 1 &#8211; Camera Techniques Camera Techniques Practice Learning to apply our learning about camera techniques and the creation of meaning.&nbsp;&nbsp; We went around the school taking photos; applying our knowledge to use a range of camera angles to convey different purposes and&nbsp;meaning.&nbsp;&nbsp; Below is the work my partner and I did.
