Directing and Performance - Monday 25th January 2016 - BAFI104

Monday 25th January 2016                Module: BAFI104                     Lecturer: Andy and Lucy

Green-Screen Shoot

We got into our given groups from the Exeter trip, I had the job role of Cinematographer, I set up the camera for shooting in the green-screen as well as helping come up with ideas and ways to improve the sound quality. Although, the studios were very un-organised, we managed to shoot our piece in under 5 mins, everyone else took their time in the studios so we had to wait for a vacancy so that we could start to shoot our footage.

I worked well with Janusz as the director, helping to talk about ideas with the actor for our single clip, I knew the footage better than anyone and so I was able to visualise the shots in my head, whilst thinking about the camera angles that would be needed in the green-screen room. I worked well with Dan as the sound man, taking lots of tests of vocals, background noise and thinking about the best way to position the boom, working with Alan, once I had set up the camera and set the aperture and camera angle that we wanted I kept checking the frame to make sure that the boom wasn't viewable in the camera.

Task


Pick a quote to create a senario that the actors can then write about: 

"Les Miserables" Script - Enjolras falling backwards out of the window, until he hangs upside down, the red flag still in his hands, streaming like blood down the wall.
