Week 2 First evaluation of the Carousel

1. Evidence of me taking part: (Pictures, Diary entries, Printouts ETC) U1.1.2








2. Write up your experience of the following...
    2a Discuss any research that you carried out in these sessions: U2.1.1,


    Now list Primary and Secondary sources U2.2.1

    Primary: We experimented natural props to create different sound effects for a scary movie, we were given the genre: crime and had to make any short film about that, and we also did some drawing of any object provided with different tools.

    Secondary:  We looked at previous students work and sharing knowledge with other students.




    2b Discuss any skills that you have tried: U2.1.1
    We tried mono printing, post production of a short film based on the genre crime, recording sound effects, made sound effects based on a scary movie,recording a short film based on the genre crime and different drawing skills with different techniques.


      2c Discuss any processes and methods you used (Photography wet process, Screen Printing, Photoshop layering etc): U1.1.1


      What is your understanding of these?:
      Processes
      we sketched a drawing using different materials using different techniques, using this drawing i had to produce a copy by using oil based ink and tracing the image
      Methods
      i used a pencil, a pen, a marker pen, a coloured pencil and water for my drawing to create different techniques. also i used an a4 paper, tape, an image, a roller, glass tray and oil based ink to create the mono print.
      2d Discuss the tools that you used (Paint, Material, Software, etc): U2 3.1 We used a pen, paper, pencils, water, oil based ink, a roller, glass tray, an object, a fineliner pen,an apron and gloves.

      Evaluated them 


      How effective were you with this tool?
      During the sketching i felt that the finliner pen was the most effective because i found it easier to draw with because it flows easier than the biro pen or pencil, also i felt that the water wasn't very effective because i felt like it ruined the image a bit. During the mono printing the oil based ink was more effective when you use a tiny blob of it than too much because it would go too dark and smudgy.
      How could this be improved?
      This could be improved by maybe sketching in different positions like standing up as it could flow easier and i could've had a better view of the object. i could have improved my mono prints by shading the images more effectively and creating different tones within the print.

      Genres

      What genre would you classify your film as? Thriller Think of three examples from the same genre Taken, Obsessed List all of the things that they have in common - character types, story events, settings, etc. How many of these elements appear in your own story? What elements are unique to your story? why do media producers use genres? so they can produce more information about their film and so you know what you are watching and so they can compare which ones are popular so they know what genre to make. How do we as audiences use genres? we use genres to decide what sort of film we want to watch. who is the target audience for your film? how will your use of genre appeal to them? our target audience is 14-18 year olds and our genre will appeal to them by making it psychologically thriller

      White Balance

      Image
      Two weeks ago we had a lesson about white balnance on a video camera. We learnt this so when the background colours are a little bit too orange or blue you can change it to a natural colour. You can do this by placing a plain white piece of paper in front of the camera lens and changing it in the settings so it is more natural. Also, you can make the background a cooler colour by placing a orange or red coloured paper in front of the lens or by making the background a warmer colour you can place a blue coloured piece of paper in front of the lens. Correct colour balance Colour balance too blue Colour balance too yellow

      Camera Techniques

      Tilt Shots Tilting the camera upward or downwards is one of the simplest camera techniques. well executed tilting showing some interesting action with a perfect coordination between the camera operator and the action can make an incredibly elegant even though they are simple. In order to create this shot you must set up the shot so that you can tilt up or down without mixing it with panning. Tilt shots should be executed smoothly and confidently, without overshooting the final frame. Zoom Shots Zoom shots are good if you get them right and successfully blend them into your directorial style. The way to make the zoom shots really effective and creepy is to make them really smooth and not zooming too fast.  Dutch Angles A Dutch Angle is a shot that is rotated about the camera axis, resulting in tilted verticals. Dutch angles are used to elicit a sense of unease and disorientation in the viewer. In narrative filmmaking Dutch angles should be used sparingly, reserving them for t
