what I have learnt over the past week...
Over the past week we have been planning and filming a phone call. In the phone call we had to show two people talking to each other from different ends of the line. We had to use differnet methods and shots to make the vidoe more than just a plain old phone call. Over the past week I have learnt a lot about filming and planning, such as, planning before actually shooting is so important. My group didnt pay much attention to planning and thought that it would be just easy to make it up as we went along, we learnt this wasnt a good thing to do as it took up a lot of our editing time as the filming took a lot longer than we wanted. I have also learnt that the shots we use in the film can be made to look so effective if used correctly. such as an establishing shot etc. In the future when making videos I will make sure to use the things i learnt in this project as im sure it will help me to achieve the highest possible mark.

Should I say 'I told you so?'
ReplyDeletePlanning is exceptionally important. The storyboards should help you establish exactly what you want out of your shoot, so when the day comes, everyone is prepared with costumes, props, shot lists etc. The shoot will be quick, easy and will better reflect what you wanted to achieve in the first place.
