As well as providing us with a means of sharing information, photos and personal opinions; the internet is used to share short videos. Sites such as YouTube allow us to upload short videos and share them with others.Check out www.youtube.com for more info.
So, in order to learn about video production, we made short videos which are posted on YouTube. In order to make an effective film within the given time frame of 30 seconds, planning was required by our group. Given the subject of ‘overcoming adversity’, we then looked to writing a short script. Scripts are ways the thoughts and ideas of the writers are transmitted to the intended audience and consist of both dialogue or words, and what is seen, such as expressions of characters, movement, lighting, special effects and camera angles amongst others. After discussion amongst the group, we came up with the idea of trying to get into a locked toilet. We planned who was going to be in it, where and how we were to film it, the sequence of filming and where the camera should be placed for different shots. From this, we drew up a story board of our film to show the exact sequence of filming. Storyboards are a series of pictures of each shot, used to help visualise the film and find any potential problems before they occur. As we were working as a group, the storyboard gave us the means to check that everyone had the same vision for the film and allowed for input on different ways to do things. Using this, we were able to shot and edit the film quickly; giving us the result we wanted. To see the result, check out the YouTube link!
