xxcompletion of premliminary filming/editing task - notes and evaluation. xx

My role and what I did:



I was the director and therefore had the responsibility of directing the actors e.g. postioning them, telling them were to point the camera or aim it at, at the different points.
I also decided whether or not the camera was at a good angle and looked at the focus before beginning of filiming. I was to say standing by, rolling and action.




The strenghts of the group:

Communication worked well, everyone respected each others roles, and listened to instructions and responded.

the 180 degrees rule was relatively easy, as we made sure always before filming and saying action that we did not cross the line, this was not that challenging as our acotrs remained seated for most of the shots until Austin stood up. In which the 180 rule needed to be checked, just to be sure.

We followed the story board correctly, and accurately.

There was a large amount of control of the camera, as a tripod was used to steady it.

Jorden kept looking to see if the gain was correct to keep the shots correctly lighted at 0 without the gain.

We observed the rule of 3rd well.

Our framing was good.


The weaknesses of the group:

We could of moved quicker from one set to another, in order to get the job done quicker.

Marking where the camera used to be, with the tape in order to get everyone in exactly the same postion for realistity.

Things that could make the filiming process easier next time:

We could of used, more variety of angles of shots such as low and high angles to show vairety. We did this at times but more could of been done.
