Cinematography practical task and LR



1) Type up your feedback/comments from your teacher.

-This is quite a long way from meeting the brief-only 30 seconds and most of the labels were incorrect
-Without a subject/person in the video pretty much every shot was a long shot.it may have made more sense to focus on camera movement instead(which was much better)
-Revise the camera shots and terminology

2) Type up your feedback from fellow students.

-WWW:
-camera shots were labelled correctly
-good editing
-good fit of music
-good hand held shots

EBI:
-it was 31 seconds instead of a minute long
-missing a person
-high and low angle were wrong(opposite)
-repeated use of medium shot
most shots were panning


3) Now reflect on your work and write your own summary of the comments and feedback you have received. Write three WWWs and three EBIs.

-WWW:
-Good use of music for the video
-good editing

-EBI:
-I should have used a person so that the shots would be correct 
-Should have done one minute video
-Do not repeat shots 

4) Learner response: think about what you learned about cinematography making the video and also watching others. What will you do differently when you start the coursework in the summer? What tips or tricks have you learned from others that you can use next time? Are there any specific aspects of camerawork that you need to revise or practice?

-I need to revise the camera shots and terminology, so that when I am doing course work next time I do not label anything wrong. I should also read my task before filming anything as I missed out on the fact the video was meant to be one minute long. What I learned from my classmates videos was that I can take a shot of a random building and use that as a way of making my audience think that's where the following scene will happen, but instead in reality it would happen in a random office or even in school.

mise en scene analysis

Image
  1) Find a distinctive   still image   and write an analysis of the mise-en-scene. Use each of the aspects you've learned in the lesson. -The windows of his car have bullets holes in them, which may show that bad guys are after him and are trying to kill him. The man in the far right corner with a gun has connotations that he is the bad guy trying to kill the innocent man driving the car. The gold light shining on the man in the car shows him to be the main character and he is a nice man as he is so is the centre of attention. The serious facial expression on his face also promises the audience drama and action. 2) Find  TWO  film or TV extracts on YouTube from different genres (e.g. horror, sci-fi, costume drama).
