From looking at my preliminary task and looking at my final opening sequence I feel I have learnt quite a lot and have been able to develop my skills sccessfully. In the preliminary task I didnt use very many different shot sizes or camera angles, for example we mainly used shot reverse shots as it was a conversation between two people. However in the opening sequence we decided to use a lot more variety and we filmed a lot more shot sizes and used more camera angles. For example we used some close ups to show the characters emotion and we also used some low angle shots.

Another way in which I feel I have developed my skills is on the editing suites. I have used the suites previously for other tasks however this time I did a lot more and we used a lot more different tools. For example we brightened some of the shots as they were too dark to read the writing for one of our titles, and I hadn't done this before.

Also I have learnt about expanding our first ideas. For example adding in titles which are not necessarily written in, for instance we used fridge magnets to write out one of our names. This we feel portrayed our genre more clearly to the audience and it was quite conventional within the romantic comedy genre to actually include the titles within the sequence.
