18th & 19th June 2009.
In both lessons we were continuing to develop our ability when using the cameras. In the double lesson, we were able to get into small groups and work together to produce a small film titled 'The Phone Call''. We had to plan using a storyboard so we knew what shots we were going to use and the length in which we were filming for. We used the setting of an underpass, and near a forest for our two locations. After filming we were able to use the apple mac's to start to edit the film and place the shots in the appropriate order. This took alot of time and effort was worth it when looking at the outcome of our first short film.
Through this process I have learnt that filming takes alot of time and effective planning, if the film is to be a success. From this, we now have an understanding of how to use the apple macs which we can now use to edit all work that we produce for this unit. The editing takes time to come to terms with, however overtime this will be a great help to our overall outcome, and help us develop our understanding od film altogether.
Planning and time management become ikie.ncredibly important as you progress through the course Beckie. You have always demonstrated that you have these skills and this will, obviously, stand you in good stead. Editing is time consuming but the little things like labelling and numberng shots can help a lot.
