Pitching a media product (music video) 2.1 and 2.2 Research

Pitching a Media Product-Music video

 The music video of my choice was Thriller by Michael Jackson.The main reason I chose this video was because of how good the sfx and vfx was for the time period it was made it. Another reason is because of how intricately thought out and choreographed the entire video is, how it is basically a movie in a movie and the plot twist at the end and how is implied the entire 4 minute zombie scene is a dream.

LA2:Tripod explanation 1.1

Image
How to set up a tripod? -         Release the tripod legs- The best way to do this is to extend from the bottom down.       Make sure the legs are stable.       Lock the legs-  Pushing the leg locks towards/on to the legs.       *If needed to raise the center column*- Undo the side screw/twist and pull up the center column then tighten the side screw.       *If needed to pan and tip*-  Loosen up the handle at the back of the panhead. This will allow      you to move the equipment around. Then undo the top side screw to be able to pan the equipment from side to side.       Take out the quick release plate or the camera mount and attach the camera.        Slide the plate/camera mount back onto where it was before but this time, with the camera    attached.

Evaluation for vintage style editing

Image
 Last Monday I made a video of what looked like a space ship in space. Firstly in groups we went off and filmed the video and the setup looked like this:  *a small plastic spaceship attached to a piece of string which was then strung up on a tripod. The camera was then on the black plastic strip which then allowed it to be able to slide right to left. Which on camera, gave the impression that the ship was moving slowly* After that, the video was then uploaded to premiere pro where I would then edit it by removing the green screen and adding a space background. Then using lens flare to create an effect of light coming off the ship. The things I could of done better in this lesson was effectively using lens flare better than last time and finishing my work in enough time. Here is the embedded video:

2.1 Contributing in a technical capacity to the creation of a video production

Image
 The place I filmed my video was at my house as thats where the production was set. This was for all of my short film not just parts of it. The only part that included outside (which didn't end up being in the video due to complications already mentioned/mentioned later) was in my front garden when the clown entity was outside, looking in the window but it was still recorded from the camera inside.  The equipment I used was a Cannon camera for filming. For mise-en-scene- wise, what I used was my phone, sfx/ clown makeup (ended up not being in the tester) and my LED lights. I did't bother with excessive natural light due to the time of day and that it was going to be in black and white and was meant to have a dark atmosphere.  The production activity that happened was filming multiple shots and checking lighting. I also checked the shots and audio. Unedited files. Photo of the clown makeup.
