We learnt that holding the camera can hurt your arms, we are looking forward to getting a tripod.
We learnt about the clapper. We used it so that it can sync up the audio and sound. We recorded the sound separately so that the speaking is clearer.
We had to re take some shots because we had cut off some of the recording. We also had to retake some shots to make sure the story made sense. Next time we will make sure we record before the clapper, we also need to make sure we say "cut" well after the actors have spoken, this will mean we can edit it more easily and ensure none of the speech is cut off.
It was a pretty good first attempt at a whole movie from scratch, we think we tried a range of camera shots and angles and we also worked well as a team in each different role; director, clapper, actors, sound recording, camera person.
Kia ora guys. Wow! Tu meke! Great job! I like how you used a variety of camera shots, especially the close up reaction shots and the over the shoulder/point of view shots. The different angles used were also good, particularly the shot taken from below the netball hoop looking up. I was a little confused with the storyline, maybe the script could use a little work? More dialogue perhaps? And also don't be afraid to slow down your film and let your shots play out a little to explain the story.....remember the visual can tell A LOT without the need for sound or talking ;) Keep it up! I look forward to seeing more of your work :)
