Shot list- Single camera production

Single camera production Storyboard

finished script

technical skills development

We where set to shoot a short film which we choose to do about a student receiving a bad grade. In this task I had more of a role in the editing stage and coming up with the idea for the story. The end result came out alright however if we where to do it again there would be a couple things we could have done better, like getting a master shot and ensuring that there are minimal continuity errors.

For sound we where asked to record a couple lines of dialog outside which at the time was windy, we did this twice, once with the dead cat and once without to compare the audio quality. While recording I was the sound man and had to hold the boom pole and press record and stop on the audio recorder. We learnt that the audio quality is drastically decreased without the proper equipment as the wind was audible. I learned how to properly use the audio recorder as it was my first time using it

Lastly with lighting we were set to take multiple photo by setting up and lighting each shot differently with 3 lights. In this task I was the one taking the photos while also helping to move some of the lights around, this task taught me you can get pretty decent shots by using the 3 lights as back, key and fill to ensure there’s minimal shadows.
