Camera Functions

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

Although many modern cameras come with automatic settings, these are usually insufficient when working in film proffessionally. There are a few manual functions that even amateur camerapersons should be familiar with.

Zoom, although a manual feature, should be avoided by amateur camerapersons. It is unreliable and will often turn out badly.

Focus, when used automatically will often focus on the wrong subject in the shot. Using the manual settings will allow you to focus on the subject that was chosen in your planning/storyboards.

Other functionhs, such as white balance, exposure, audio and effects will have similar consequences when using automatic settings. Manual settings should be chosen every time.

Planning a filmed sequence

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

There are five key elements to planning a shoot; Who, What, When, Where and Why.

If these elements are not included the shoot will be unclear and confusing to the viewer. When one plans a shoot one should always plan very carefully and clearly to avoid any confusion between the filming crew and to stop any time and money being wasted.

Film plans can also often include a script so that the actors/cast will know what to say. Improvisation may be acceptable on stage occasionally but it is never good enough when filming. Everything should be preordained.

Storyboards

Wednesday, October 7th, 2009

A storyboard is a plan used to design what a final product, be it film, piece of writing, photograph or image will look like. A storyboard must contain a few crucial features. These include:

A rationale or brief statement of what the product will be.

Any assumed knowledge on what the product will be.

A visual representation of the screen layout.

Any underlying data or information that you would need in order to produce the final copy.

Ideally, any resources, such as images or video, to be included.

Without these the storyboard would be ineffective.
