Iconic Directors

After some thought of on how to present out iconic directors information we decided to add different ideas together in order to make the video more interesting and unique. Using xranormal and ourselves representing the directors we editing different videos we made together. The three of us worked hard in order to to make the video wasn't boring or dull, Danny played the part of he first director, i, Rosie played the second and Grace played the final one. We all took part in the creation and the editing of the video, hope you enjoy it!

Preliminary Task

Above is our Script, we were the only group on our AS class who wrote their own, we decided to do this to have more freedom and also we wanted to be more creative, we decided to make the officer a little aggressive as in typical thriller film, you usually find a dirty cop, one that doesn't follow the rules but gets the job done. When shooting the short film, we changed a few of the lines to make the scene flow easer and to make it more professional rather than amateur. When we shot the preliminary task each of us took turns in controlling the camera also we all adjusted the exposure, white balance and focus to make sure we could all do it, we made sure that we all had a chance to use the camera.

This task taught us to importance of framing and how a mis-framed shot could ruin the rest of the film and if a shot is framed well, how effectively it works. We all had a go at editing the final film and we all had a go at editing the match on action scene so when it comes to our thriller film opening, we all will be able to edit at a good standard.

This is the final video

(Some lines in script were changed on shoot)

This is our Directors Commentary/ Evaluation

Preliminary Exercise

For this task we had to create a presentation including the definitions, examples and how to use the following things; match on action, 180 degree rule and shot reverse shot. As a group we decided to use the online website 'Prezi', this helped us put together an interesting presentation that included all the different information needed. We all contributed, by using all of our notes combined and taking it in turns to type up the information and experimenting with what the website can do, evidence of this is presented out out individual blogs.
