WE WERE PUT INTO GROUPS AND WERE TOLD TO FILM A SIMPLE PIECE OF FOOTAGE FROM DIFFERENT ANGLES, SUCH AS CLOSE UP, MID SHOT AND WIDE SHOT. WE WERE ALSO TOLD TO ADD ANOTHER SHOT THAT WE HAD TO COME UP WITH. IT WAS VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE LET THE ACTION RUN THROUGH THE SHOT AND TO NOT MOVE THE CAMERA E.G BY PANNING WITH A MOVING PERSON OR OBJECT. THIS WAY OF FILMING WAS DESCRIBED TO US AS IF IT WAS A POSTCARD AND THE ACTION WOULD HAVE TO RUN THROUGH IT.
WE SET UP OUT TRIPOD AND PD170 IN THE DINNING ROOM. WE FILMED A SEQUENCE OF DANIELLE WALKING THROUGH A DOOR, UP TO A TABLE WERE AN APPLE WAS POSITIONED, PICKING UP THE APPLE, TAKING A BIGHT AND WALKING TOWARD THE CAMERA AND OUT OF THE SHOT.WE REPEATED THIS WITH EACH SHOT TYPE AND EVEN ADDED AN OVER THE SHOULDER TAKE.
IT WAS VERY IMPORTANT THAT WE HAD THE RIGHT CAMERA SETTINGS WHEN FILMING, UNFORTUNATELY THE ONLY PROBLEM WE STUMBLED ACROSS WAS THAT OUR CAMERA COULD NOT GET CORRECTLY FOCUSED. AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS OF TRYING TO GET THE CLEAREST FOCUS POSSIBLE WE DISCOVERED THE PD170 WAS ON AUTOMATIC.
I FEEL THAT WE FOLLOWED OUR INSTRUCTIONS CLEARLY, AND OUR IDEA FOR THE FOOTAGE WAS WELL THOUGHT OUT BUT IT WAS A SHAME ABOUT THE CAMERA SETTINGS :(
