Media Project: Progress
Last week me and my group, George, Lewis and Jordan, started the process of preparing and filming our latest Media project, which was to a short film of a conversation. Our group decided to make the scenario an interrogation between an investigator and a criminal. I played both parts, as to give the film more comedic value, which is a secondary aim for the project.
With a storyboard and design order ready, we went to start the filming in an unrenovated area of Outwood House, my school's Sixth Form facility. George filmed for the majority of the piece and we discussed camera angles/movement together. We used a variety of angles (mid-shot, tracking shot, high-angle shot etc.) for actions such as walking, opening a door, sitting down and other common actions. Many of the angles have acted in unison with the mood/atmosphere of the scene.
The group was well organised in filming and acting, however we are unsure whether we truly have enough filmed after 2 lessons worth of filming, therefore I would say an improvement could be to be more time effective and organised in the planning of the film. Overall I'm happy with the progress made thus far and look forward to the editing and final result.
Storyboard (Illustrated by myself)
I decided on the movements and camera angles for the project through this storyboard. I thought the choices I made would be best after studying many clips of films and shows and analysing the ways in which different angles add different effects. The storyboard was a loose guide to what we should be doing, as additional angles and actions take place in the video.
