- 2. Camera work Here is two screen shots from the first shot in my peace. It shows a mid shot focusing on the criminal profile in image 1. In image 2 it shows a extreme close up shot of the same criminal profile. During this task I have learnt how a camera works and shown by these pictures from my peace I have learnt how to zoom in from a shoot in picture 1 from a mid shot to a close up in picture 2. 1 2
- 3. These two screen shots are taken later on in the peace. Picture 1 shows a mid shot that is non focused of the roulette wheel spinning around. Picture two shows a extreme close up focused shot of the roulette wheel. Within my time working on this peace this is a other skill I have picked up and that’s how to use to focus feature on the camera to gain a higher quality shots. 1 2
- 4. These two shots are showing my characters walking down a ally way away from the camera. These shots where filmed using a tripod with a camera set up on it so the camera sat dead still to capture the shots without any camera movement. Within this peace I learnt how to effectively use a tripod stand and fit and film the camera.
- 5. 5 These shots of the same charters walking down the same place put the use of different camera angles and in the clip they follow each other. This create the sense that the drug lord is being followed by the hitman with is how it is meant to be. The camera was placed on a tripod on at different points while the charters walked down. during this peace i have learnt how different camera angles can totally effect the way each frame is looked at as from behind a facial expression is unable to be seen but on the other angle this is visible.
- 6. Editing work By using premier elements I added a text seen in picture 1 (sage productions) and as this fades out as I selected a fade to black effect and when this fades out the video zooms in to a close up shot and focus more on the roulette wheel in picture 2 this makes it a smooth transition as the shot zooms in. Thought-out the production of this peace i have learnt many different editing techniques on premier elements.
- 7. This shot shows a still of the ball on green but within the editing software I stretched out the clip to make it stay on the shot for longer.As this is a very important part of my clip as just before the charter who is the drug lord says ‘you will never find me the roulette wheel never lands on green’ during this product i have learned how to stretch clips out and frames so they hold for longer to create a larger focus point on them as they are very important.
- 8. • This shows a still shot of my clip with text on the screen saying ‘Sage Productions’. I have learn how to insert text on to a moving image and for the duration of the text i have cut it so the text flashes on the screen as it passes from text,to no text back to text ,It look as the text is flashing on top of the moving image behind the text. This is something els have learnt during the production of this project and how different effects of cutting your peace can have an effect on how the peace is viewed.
- 9. 9 From the editing process i have relised that there were some continuity errors with my peace and the shots of the charters walking into the frame and out the frame in different angle was completely wrong. So i re edited and fitted all three shots into one so as one shot the had the charters walking round the corner i cut the rest out and placed the new clip in of them walking down and away from the camera to smoothly fit together making sure the same foot was in use, and the lastly changing to the last shot of them walking towards the camera again cutting and fitting in the new shot making sure it all fitted smoothly.
