Evaluation of task (comment on use of planning, use of camera, use of iMovie and working as part of a group. Include 2 areas for improvement, which you work on during the main task.) We made a plan before we started filming which was detailed and highlighted where we were filming and the positions we needed to be in. We also included a script so we knew exactly what we were going to say to each other. The camera shots we used were shot reverse sot, match in action and the 180 degree rule which all look great in our final product.As I group I thought we worked well and we all gave our own ideas. When we can to use I Movie we found it really easy to use and we all gave our personal thoughts on where to cut the certain parts of

the movie. If there was anything I could change about our movie was to add some more characters as not everybody was in the movie. Secondly I would if we had more time go into more detail by using props to give a better effect.
