3rd Production Meeting

Now we have started filming, we have got to the midway point of our opening. Throughout, we have a lot of takes that are not going to be any use to us, so we have started deleting the shots that went wrong and picking the shots that went smoothly. We have also looked through our filming to ensure we have all the different types of shots in our shot list, we enquire to make a good thriller opening.

2nd Production Meeting

My group has moved on further, Tayo and I have now created a shot list and storyboard for our thriller opening. Our production is named 'Beautiful Insanity'. In the second image we have discussed and noted down our main storyline for our project, the name of the production and our production company. Along with the contrapuntal music we will be using throughout the final piece, we decided on the music now because we have a strong idea and we needed to get the basics finalised.

1st Production Meeting

Tayo and I were previously working with two other boys in our class but due to the inconvenience of different visions of what we wanted in our final piece, we decided it is best if we split groups. Although we had already confirmed our initial ideas, Tayo and I have started another film opening.

We have decided on a new idea that could possibly be based in school as it is easy to access a convenient and will involve some of our classmates for extra help with any filming we will need.

Initial Ideas

Introducing Our Group

Tayo - right side                                                                                 Nadine (me) - left side
She is in charge of costume and                                                 I am in charge of directing as our
props as I will be using her                                                         thriller opening was initially my idea
folder for filming.  She is also in                                               so I feel like I can bring the idea to life. charge of the location that we will                                             I am also in charge of filming as I will
be filming at and the she was responsible                                  be adding some of my point of view
for recruiting some friends of ours that                                      shots. As there are only two members
will be our actresses.                                                                  of our group we have decided to do                                                                                                           joint editing.

Cinematography Filming Exercise

Analysis: In this video we have used shots such as tracking shots, rolling shots, close ups, extreme close ups, wide shots and long shots. I feel like we used the different types of shots really effectively because we didn't just do a one-take, we repeated each type of shot until each scene was at its best, so in the end the whole video mostly looked steady and smooth. Each scene corresponded together well to the point where it looked like the video has a plot line. I was actually the one who filmed the rolling shot and I feel really proud of it, there are no movements in that whole scene, it rotated really smoothly and looked rather professional for my first time of handling a camera. Overall, there are some shaky scenes throughout the video due to our inexperience with a professional camera and tripod but in the future we will work on our faults now that we have been able to identify them.

Our close up was used to focus on one characters' face, to bring focus to the expression on his face when he saw Tayo.

Over the shoulder shots were used when Tayo was walking towards David so we know in the future this shot can be used when something is approaching the camera.

Wide shots were used to make it clear to the audience what area we are in and what is surrounding us.
