Preliminary Task

Before the half term we were given a camera and a tripod. We were taught how to use this equipment and how to use it for different camera angles and shots. Next we had to find the location to film, get people to be in the video, draw a story board, write a script, to make sure we had the correct props and to check the equipment was working. We then had to film someone walking through a door, sitting down then having a conversation. During the lesson we were told to leave time while filming and not start filming as soon as the person was walking or talking as it wouldn't leave enough space to be able to edit. We had also been told to film the shot more than once, this had been because if there had been something wrong we would have the other clip to use just in case. After we had done this we were then ready to edit it after the half term.
