In Thursday's lesson, we learnt the correct way to set up the camera we will be using for the Thriller film we will be filming. We learnt how to insert the camera film correctly into the camera. Technically we learnt how each individual button works on the camera. This is so that we know how to include technical aspects into a thriller such as the zoom tool. This will enhance the quality of our thrillers, making them look more professional, which in turn should hopefully gain us a better grade. We also learnt how to use the Tripod. The Tripod is used to hold the camera up so when filming the shot on the actors will be more focused, making it look more professional. we learnt the correct way to assemble the tripod, this included; correctly stabilising the legs when increasing or decreasing the tripods size and correctly connecting the camera to the top of the Tripod, so that it is secure when filming.
To show we had learnt the ways in which both the camera and the Tripod were to be used, in groups of 2-4 we had to make a short clip of an interview in which either member of the group or indeed members of other groups, were to answer three questions. The three questions were:
What is your favourite thriller ?
What do you like about the Thriller genre?
What do you most enjoy when watching a Thriller ?
In turn we all had a go at answering the questions whilst being recorded on camera, we did individual shots of people answering the questions on there own as well as joint shots of One person asking the question, whilst another answered it whilst they were both being filmed.
From doing this exercise in class i believe i have learnt valuable skills for when it comes the time for me to create my own Thriller clip, this will therefore enhance the chances of gaining a better grade.
