Editing and blogwork: logging Preliminary Task #1

Hi girls,


So here's what you need to do this week:

Editing-

• Finish Eagles documentary tutorial edit- use the tutorial vids.
• Then, do it again and try to use the vids as little as possible!  This re-do is to be finished in your study breaks (see me to schedule editing times).
• Complete a rough edit of your filming.  This will largely be done in class time.

Blogs-

1.  Log the process of your planning.  Be creative and thorough!  Construct your entry in such a way that you journey your readers; explain:

• what you were trying to achieve,
• and why you thought your plan was the best way to reach those goals.

Must include- storyboard, script, shotlist, any further planning (i.e. costume list, props list, casting)

2.  Use Prezi and / or Emaze to write a mini-version of a Creative Critical Reflection.  Answer compulsory questions 1, 3 and 4.  Skip #2 for now.

Must include- visuals (ie. picture of storyboard, etc). We will add a link to your final video later.


Editing and blogwork are both due Monday 7th March.

Let me know if any questions!  Have fun.

Preliminary Task - practicalities

Hi everyone,


Okay, this week you need to get the following:

• A story for your Preliminary Task
• Remember this needs to be 30s - 1min; cut the fluff
• Filming will take place from 1:30pm-3:35pm this Friday.  You will need actors from approximately 1:45pm to begin getting changed and meet you where you are setting up.
• Organise talent (actors/actresses) IN ADVANCE
• Organise and necessary costumes and props
• Remember to consider props that may be necessary for the location / studio you intend
• Consider lighting; who will hold the fleccie?
• Consider roles and distribute them.  Show me who is responsible for what.
• Consider sound; what else will be happening at that time?  Any natural sound that may interfere?

To the right is a temporary tab that we will be discussing in class tomorrow before continuing with in-class planning and equipment tutorials.  Feel free to view as often as you like for now; I'll be removing it Friday.

Next week we will be looking at more information about Thrillers that can be used to fix our blog entries.
