Preliminary Task (Filming)

Today we had to prepare and film a short sequence with dialogue and props. In groups of four we received a basic plan of what shots to capture and what to say.

We went to the studio and set up our equipment, we worked out what, where and when we were going to do.

Throughout filming we talked about what shots were going to do and what would be effective. We used multiple shots in our task including wide shot, over the shoulder, close up and POV.

I was one of the actors but did participate in deciding where to place the camera to shoot the other actor in order for a close up of them. We shot many didn't angles in order to create suspense and so that when we go to edit we can use many different shots to create the short film.
