the phone call



the task was to start with two characters one of them is phoning the other to arrange a meeting to where a bomb will be planted and meet in G19 to blow up Long Road we wanted to make the storyboards so it would be to the best of our ability we wanted to make the storyboards easy to follow and we all wanted to agree on a storyline which we all agreed on which we think would produce a great story we used all the shot list and put them to good effect to make the conversation more powerful we shot film in different pattern so when we filmed we did the whole scene and then do the other and edit it so it would fit together in this film i was the camera man i made sure that film was done if the characters were in line and we at the best angle the editing was done by cutting most of film we made but it made the film look a lot better we cut out the clapperboard and the bits were i said cut. we wanted to shot the film outside were we can get a good idea of where the characters are and we wanted the background to be empty to show how important this meeting is to them. we wanted to show the other character indoors but hidden away so that no one could see were he was and to keep it quiet we didn't shot the film in a narrative sequence because we were gong edit it so it look like they were having a conversation. my contribution to the film was being the camera man and the clapperboard man as well my job was to film the sequence and to make sure the characters were in place and to get the camera angles just right i wanted to make sure we could get the best out of the characters so with most shots we hot more than once so we could chose the best one when it came to editing.

when we started editing the film the clapperboards helped us name the shot numbers and order the numbers the editing was not done in the order we shot we moved around the shots to make it fit into the sequence of events a rough cut is were you cut the clapperboard and the bits saying cut which made it seem better. cutting on movement is were you cut the film to were they start there actions and then cutting the end so it runs smoothly and not having a long pause at the end of the sequence i have learnt that you can film in two different locations and put it together in a film which works very well that if you edit the sequence to the right time

James ward is a special effects artist who showed us how to create a mask from a person face he covered the face with a blue paste that would stick to his face and mould to the shape of his head the hair was covered by a bald mask that would cover his hair so it wouldn't stick to stick to his hair he then started to put the plastic over his face which would then create the mask and then would slowly be able to take the mask off and then keep the mask where he was able to create a mask from the mould which was then made into a scary mask. the make up was very useful which my help me with future projects

match on action

It is a cut in film editing from one scene to another in which the two camera shots' compositional elements match, helping to establish a strong continuity of action – and linking two ideas with a metaphor.

180 degree rule


the 180 degree rule is a basic guideline in film making that states that two characters in the same scene should always have the left/right relationship to each other. if the camera passes over the line it creates a reverse angle crossing the line a new shot from the other side.

find your tribe

http://www.findyourtribe.co.uk/
the website is created by channel four by research agencies crowd DNA and voodoo this sites invites you to complete a quiz that can tell what time of youth group you belong to the questions ask you about music channels you like magazine what would you do if had a £1000 and how would you spent it. at the end of the quiz you are told what tribe you belong to there 26 different tribes that you can be placed in this was my result.

i took a test to show what youth tribe i belonged in my result was sports junkie which i think is correct i am always watching sports and always spend my money on new football kits or new cricket gear for myself i would say that i am not completly sports mad but this result would sum up me and its great way to know what type of youth group i belong to this was the comment i got for being a sports junkie and the video that shows what i am likely to do.

You are a Sports Junkie! Some losers might have interests like music, clothes, booze and friends, but that’s just what they are: losers. Sports junkies are WINNERS – they give 110%. They know you only win if you ditch your social life for a serious commitment to sport. Your ambition? To move out of your mum and dad’s house and into the gym permanently. Come on, it might happen.
