Tasks and roles in the group and how they were achieved

For our media project, we sectioned different areas of the course between the four of us, the reason for this is because we all had our different strengths in the group, First of all we had Bethan and Saba making the majority of the blogs as they had an exceptional talent in wording sentences correctly to gain full explanation on our video, we also had Abdul do all the cinematography as he had a steady hand for hand held shot and had the correct control whilst using the tripod for tilts and pans, I (Michael) did all the editing as my strength was to see the video come alive on the screen, difficulties faced whilst editing was to gain the correct timing of the lip syncing of the performer (Me) and to create the narrative by cutting and trimming clips, challenges faced during this was to actually find the clips I wanted to use in the clip library was they only had the abbreviations to the clips name, E.g "MOVO61", to solve this problem I when through the whole library and changed the name of all the clips, this gave ma a platform and easily detect what clip i would want in my video, It was important Abdul made sure the shots were not in poor lighting, completed the rule of thirds and any shot/ reverse/ shot did not break the 180 degree rule, due to this a lot of shots had to be retaken as sometimes even a reverse zoom ruined the original shot as shot would become disjointed, to resolve this we "banned" the zoom out button as it was a totally pointless feature in our video, yet on the other hand, we managed to create a section in the video were a zoom in is used.
