Research- Media Workshop

On Friday, we had our re-scheduled media workshop day. The day was very enjoyable aswell as being usefull. By the end of the day me and my group had completed our continuity exercise. The sequence we had to film was a person walking up to a room, opening a door, walking through a door and sitting with someone at the other side. The two people then had to have a conversation and maybe exchange something. Before we started the excercise we made sure we had completed our planning. Me and my team thought about the shots that we wanted to include and created a storyboard of these shots. We included things like camera shot, sound and the shot duration. We included a variety of shots as we thought it would make the sequence more interesting. When filming our sequence we had to film each shot for longer than we atually needed it. This was so we could choose the piece of the clip that we wanted and had room either side of the clip to cut. After we filmed all of our shots we went onto the apple macs and started to edit our work using a program called imovie. We put all of the pieces together so as it made sense. For example we put our establishing shot first followed by our medium shot and our close up. Finally we added some dissolve effects, credits and music to complete our sequence.
