Camera exercise - Back to the Future

To get used to filming techniques and to find out and learn how to use a camera, we got into groups and had to go out and film a sequence of the film, Back to the future.

when we was filming each part of the sequence, we filmed it about three times, this was to ensure that we had at least one good shot for each part, so when it came to editing we could chose the best shot to use. when all of the film sequence was filmed, we went back and had to edit it to make it all come together. we then learnt how to edit and put effects into our work to make it more interesting. with the camera, we learnt how to keep it steady by using the tripod, how to zoom in and out and also all about how different shots and angels can create a difference in the pace of the film.

when we have to film our trailer, we will have to use what we have learnt in this exercise. we will also need to make changes such as we cannot film in loud locations and we must beware of background noise, also we will make the actors speak a lot more loud so that they can be heard on film. what we should also do when filming our trailer is to use a lot more angels and use more shots so we have a big choice to work with.
