updates (again)


above: on set of our preliminary task when i was locked in a cubicle. see later

below: we has to make a sign so filming didn't get interrupted, not only did this look dodgy but there were a group of boys being taught in the room opposite. oops!

hello :)
we have finally done the long awaited preliminary task which was immense fun! i have been so excited about doing the task and thought it would be super easy but as i found out - i was completely wrong.

For the 2 minute film task, i was thinking about working alone but just from filming this preliminary task i have decided i am more than willing to work in a group and all of us contribute ideas.

because we had a triple media lesson we had some time to plan out what we were going to do for the task. 2 of us out of the group take drama (me and gemma) and i had an idea for the location which was the girls toilets. In class time we planned out our camera shots who was going to be who and even managed to get our friend nicole involved in her free period.

Being involved in drama i love to act so i wasn't behind the camera much in this task but when not in shot i helped with camera work and gave my opinions and advice to the person that was behind the camera. We found the tripod quite handy but also at times very hard to use.

As i want to be involved in TV acting when i am older this also gave me an insight into what it would be like. We had to do the scene many times say the line and match the actions everytime we shot it. There were also many outtakes. And a point during the two hours where i sat in a toilet cubicle for about half an hour.Overall i enjoyed the making of our preliminary task.

Next lesson a year 13 student will come in and share some editing experience and we will get to edit together our preliminary task which i am excited for.

As soon as i can i shall post our preliminary task.
