Prelim Task

For the prelim we each appointed roles in which we would do in order to create our small film, these were: actors- Tyler and Grace(me),camera man- Igor ,assistant director- Ksnenia  and director- Kingsley. Although these were our main roles, we all helped each other with everything and got a chance to look at what we were doing from other perspectives. We used a tripod and a Sony NX5 to film our sequence, this worked out very well, as we were able to get all the angles we wanted to easily and were able to change the height of out shot in particulars sections.  After setting up our camera we bubbled it and began by presenting the camera a piece of paper with our names written on it, we then flipped this piece of paper and did a white balance, and began setting up our first shot. The task we had to follow was to shoot a short sequence, in which we were given a storyboard to work from, we had to get all of the shots on the story board and then if we wished we could add extra shots in order to develop our sequence.




Overall the prelim went well, however I would have preferred to have spent more time on making sure each time we shot we planned to do exactly the same thing each time and therefore been able to get each shot exactly the same, making it much simpler to eventually edit.
