conversation video



I am really happy with the outcome of this video,  I feel that the music and use of a large variety of shots made it look professional, shots include a long shot (when entering), panning, close ups, shot reverse shots, over the shoulder shots. the elements of zoom text and more also add to the positive effects. I think that it could be of more quality however and that the use of microphones may help the sound quality to cut of the surrounding noise such as wind and aeroplanes.
If I had to make another convocation video I would plan it better and in advance, I would also use a tripod to ensure a still camera. this excesise has also taught me that maybe not shooting in order will help the quality, for example; keeping the camera still on a tripod and making the actors say all they're lines in one take and editing it into the right order. I may do this next time I shoot a video.

Short film storyboard/shot planning

this story board can help me to ensure i have used a range of shots, it will also help me when filming my short film. I can see before i begin filming that some things are unnecessary and some need improving. I can also ensure that my shots are in an understandable standard. For example starting with a close up and ending that scene with a long shot, or visa versa.
Basic camera shots...
