- I have used the following camera techniques: High Angle, Mid Shot, Ariel Shot, And an Extreme Close Up.
- I used these techniques to create a sense of tension and to create a fluent narrative, also to break the 4th wall to contact the audience.
- I have learnt to use the following continuity editing rules: Match on action, 180-degree rule and shot reverse shot.
- I used these rules to create a narrative that explains what is happening within the scene and that runs continuously.
- I have learnt to use the following tools/techniques in Premiere Pro: I used the razor tool, the set in/set out tool and the selecter tool.
- I used these tools to edit the clips into a full narrative story.
- If I was to do this project again I would do some things differently such as, carry on using the 180-degree rule and not break at all. In addition, I would also re-film the shot when Lawrence walks in due to the fact we see molly in the background also we break the match on action as Lawrence walks straight in and we don’t get to see him sitting down
Film Industry Research Jobline
In groups of two or three we made a poster of ‘conception to reception’ life of a film which we split into 6 sections:
- Pre-production
- Production
- Post-production
- Distribution
- Marketing
- Exchange
Within these sections, we had to write jobs that people have which are important in the making of the film. These include Producer, Director, Makeup, Distributors and Cinema Owners.
This task has helped me with the understanding of the film industry and the importance of each worker and where they are needed most. This understanding will help me in the making of my film as I will know how many people I need when setting up my location, cast, costume etc. This will help me to answer Evaluation Question 3 ‘What kind of media institution might distribute your media product and why?’ as I have a better understanding of the industry.
