My First Practical

For my first practical task, filming a character walking into a room, my group and i decided on what role we would play in this production. My role within the group was to film, certain shot types for example, long shot and close ups. I was pleased with the beginning because my group and i, were able to produce good shots although we found technical difficulties when using the cam-corder for example, when trying to do a long angle shot the camera repeatedly faced upwards, in which we had to find other ways to record. When editing the clips together it all came together nicely, We encountered a few problems when editing the sequences together because we could not import some of the clips onto the computer, However, we did resolve these problems by fast-forwarding the film and asking, for assistance. This task enabled me learn how to import clips from a cam-corder onto a computer. If i were to repeat the task i will make sure i watch the whole film before i import everything at once on the computer, to make sure all my clips are on, and that i have captured all th necessary footage. The footage that i was not pleased with was the clips with the two characters at the end having a conversation because they continually laughed in the process of the clips which made it hard to fit the clips together at the end also most of the camera angle we use were different in each clip so it made it difficult to fit all the scenes together. However, i was pleased with the end result of the filming because when it was put together it all looked really good.
