Sound Exercise Task 1

I was told to create a video to practice the use of sound techniques we have learnt in a film, so that when we record the final task it comes out the way we want it to. I believe that if we as a group focused more on filming techniques rather than the dialogue, then this would have looked better. We made a lot of mistakes regarding the cinematography and we ran out of time due to technical difficulties with the microphone. Afsana did not quite know how to use it properly and the first time we tried to record the encounter of two friends and the dialogue it came out well, however Afsana was not made aware by Sirhan that the microphone was not switched on during the recording. Since we had to repeat that whole scene it did not quite work out because we tried to do everything within the short time we had.

There was a part in the video at the end where me and Afsana were in the shot of Manjit walking down the stairs which was a technical mistake.
