Production Diary

During this assignment I contributed in many ways to my classmates trailers.

Contribution:
Director - I directed my trailer, this consisted of getting the suitable actors and help for camera, lighting and location. There were bumps along the way, such as delays this meant that the timetable had to be changed, which made my job as director harder. I made the cameraman aware of the angles I needed, this meant everyone was on the same page, which meant the production ran smoothly

Camera: I was a camera man for a classmates trailer. As a camera man i was required to listen to the directors instructions and try and get the best shot I can. When I tried to review the footage with director the camera ran out of battery, so we had to get a knew battery to continue filming. Once finished filming we transfer the footage from the SD card to the computer, Then pre production started.

Editing: When editing I have to chose between shots and decide which would be best for the trailer. Then I start putting them together under guidelines of various storyboards. It takes a while to sync everything up, then it was time to put the final credits onto the edit. I hen watch it over to make sure everything is as it should be.
