Our day of filming.

This is a movie of some clips we had on flip camera from our day of filming. We are working on improving our movie as we go along and we are taking into consideration all the comments and opinions that our media class have said to us.

Flip Practice

Here is a some footage that was taken from the flip camera, unfortunately this is not the original footage but it still shows what we've been working on. We tried to experiment with different effects such as reversing the clip, freeze frames,the colour and contrast and the speed of the clips.

Review of today's lesson.

In todays lesson we carried on editing our movie and then we decided to do a small video of some clips we had on the flip camera. We will put the video up soon.

Snorricam.

I found this video on youtube and i thought this may be useful for when we create a snorricam.

This is the second draft to our movie opening.

First draft.

This is the first draft of our movie opening.

Alarm clock shots.

This is a behind the scene clip of when we had to take a shot of the alarm clock being thrown out of the window. In order to do this we had to practise throwing a few other objects before throwing and catching the alarm clock. Alice and i had to stand outside holding a blanket in order to catch the alarm clock.

Prelim bloopers.

These are the bloopers to our preliminary video.

Prelim for our group.

This is our preliminary video.

In the lesson we looked at a few examples of storyboarding and the purpose of storyboarding videos. We then drew our own storyboard of a previous media video.

Lesson Review of Monday 27th September 2010

Today's lesson was based on different types of movie genres and what genre we are thinking about doing for out group movie openings. We looked at a few openings of movies such as Sherlock Holmes to see how the opening was and how the credits were not at the beginning.

Filmmaking techniques.

The opening to Se7en.

This is the opening credits to the movie Se7en which is a horror movie. I have never watched this movie but by the way the credits have been created using sound and short clips with turning pages of a book and people writing things, you can already tell that it is a horror movie. Also there is not much colour used in the credits which shows that it has more of a dark imagery.
