Today we made a start at looking at the practical side of film for our next piece of media work. As we are aware, it is going to be a harder and more challenging project than our magazine production, as it uses a different type of equipment to produce a different type of media.
In this lesson we used the video cameras to try and catch different shots, like medium shots, long shots and close ups, while also trying to use and practice camera movements like panning and tracking.
I learnt that this was alot harder then what it looks like, and keeping the camera still without a tripod is extremely challenging as every slight movement can be shown. The cameras themselves, I found to be slightly confusing, but after practice and more experience this became easier to do.

Glad you have made a start Beckie. I look forward to seeing your full evaluation of the three films and seeing how you develop your comments further.
ReplyDeleteOne of the main things you are developing is your ability to analyse a variety of media texts not only for meaning but also for technical ability.
