Cinematography is the key term to describe camerawork: framing, angle and camera movement.
You need to be able to accurately identify camera shots, angles and movement - and most importantly the effect it has on the audience.
Practical task: create a one minute cinematography video that illustrates the main types of camera shot, angle and movement that we learned in the lesson on cinematography.
Complete the following:
1) Get into pairs or work individually. Note: although the planning and filming can be done collectively, all students MUST edit their own video.
2) Plan out the different shots, angles and examples of camera movement you need to include.
3) Film everything you need - as creatively as possible. You can use comedy, narrative or just keep it simple. However, you MUST make sure the framing and media terminology is accurate.
4) Edit your video to approximately one minute, adding music, voiceover, titles, effects and anything else that will make your film visually effective and entertaining for an audience. You can edit in school using Premiere Pro but are welcome to edit at home if you have the software to do it.
5) Export your finished video, upload it to YouTube and post it to your blog along with a 100-word explanation of your work.
Here's an example from last year to give you an idea of what we're after:
And here's an example from a similar task (camerawork and editing) that a student at Lingfield College created:
*Deadline extended due to lack of availability of equipment. New deadline: Wednesday 14 November
