We’ve been looking at TV drama such as 'The chase' and 'Skins' and analysing the shots used and why. For example Tony's press up's and weights in the morning tells us he is a typical teenager who wants a nice body to impress the girls.
We have had a moving camera lesson and decided we are ready to practise some of our new found skills so ...our teacher set us the Preliminary task.
After learning all the camera functions, and how to use it, we used a storyboard that provided us with dialogue.. And out of this we had to create a situation. In our group, we decided that the suituation would be a the stereotypical idea that women should clear up, however me (playing the women) decided I would no longer conform to William Spooner bossing me around! Shooting from a storyboard made the process very quick, therefore we realised planning is essential if you want everything to run smoothly as you have guidelines. It was important in this task that we understood how a conversation between two people was shot and cut and the importance of continuity between shots and editing, and lastly not crossing the line (180 degree rule.)
Some groups edited their preliminary task very quickly, however some struggled. We managed to get the hang of the Final Cut pro very quickly and we managed to finish the editing after 2 lessons.
This is the final product:
This was the story board:
