Media Preliminary Exercise: The Job Interveiw
Daniel Faint, Jimmy Beaton, Shannon Pratt, Megan McMillan
and I filmed in Mr O’Sullivan’s office on the 9th of October 2012
for our first preliminary exercise. The equipment we used for filming and
editing for this exercise was a Canon Legria camcorder plus Adobe Premiere
editing software. With this exercise we were only practicing a few skills,
these were:
·
Match on Action,
·
The Rule of Thirds,
·
Shot Reverse Shot,
·
Hollywood Editing
·
1800 Rule.
I feel that the task went very well as we got all the shots
that we wanted, variating shots and angles, and I think that it had a really
good outcome. But I think the parts that didn’t go so well were how limited we
were around the room as there wasn’t enough space to put the camera and tripod
at times, but we managed and was able to come up with a good 30 second piece of
work.
Preliminary Task Final Cut
Evaluation
of the Preliminary Exercise
I feel that
this went really well overall, the shots that we used had a wide range of
variety from close ups to long shots. I feel though that with the shots we
could have re-done a few as we accidently stepped over the 180o line
at one point, but the clip that happened in wasn’t shown in our version of the
task.
The sound
that was used in this task was quite loud and clear so in the interview part of
the clip we heard every word that was said. But at the beginning part of the
clip there was a lot of noise going on so if something was said you wouldn’t
have been able to hear it because of the noisy background.
The editing
that was used for this piece was very good in my opinion as the cuts were at
the right places and the match on action was exactly perfect. We also used a
dip to black to show that time had passed and the interview had begun.
I think
that my current level of production is at a high intermediate level as I know a
lot about media, editing and camera work but I feel that there is more that I could
learn to make myself better.
