Peter Rawlings

In this lesson, we were given a task which required us to video a short film using a script. I learnt the tips of writing a script and acting it out along side being filmed. We were given responsibilty of the cameras, which we used in line with safety regulations e.g making sure we were not in the way of other people when using the tripod and filming, which could lead to accidents damaging/injuring any students, staff or equipment.

Although i did not film, i explained camera techniques which would make a better film. Before we began to film, we were given a cast sheet which consisted of cast names and the time we took the camera and replaced it as this is a rule of filming and taking equipment. This was the first part of the lesson. In the second part we were introduced to Mac computers. On these computers Peter showed and explained how to edit the films we videoed. I learnt saw how films could be cut short, how to delete unwanted scenes etc. which helped very much because me and my partner will have to do our own editing in the coming lessons and make sure we do this correctly.
