Group 5

Today we started the preliminary exercise. The exercise is going to be the first piece of filming we do as a group. It is a simple conversation between 2 people in a room.  The point of this exercise is to show the examiner that we can use basic skills to create a short film. When we create our thriller video later on this year the examiner will be able to look back and see how much we have improved.  

In order to get familiar with the camera we had 30 minutes in our group to take the camera away and experiment with the different shot types and settings on the camera. During this time we made a short extract of a tv presenting type show. We enjoyed this exercise because we got to know the camera better. We also liked the idea of the whole presenting thing so we took into account that we could actually do that scenario for our preliminary exercise.
