thrusday 19.5, satuday 21.5 and sunday 22.5 - practise videos

19.5.16

Had help how to work the dslr camera as I need to make sure I had them right on the camera as its has many buttons on the camera.

 Stephainie showed me how and the right turnings.

21.5.16

I practise with it and well I didnt take picture but its in the video itself.

my mom ask to do a photo video for her so I did need to edit it in PR.  I add bits of it in picture as video too long.  

Just found out  on this computer - opposite the door - moving image, that the video won't open on VLC but on quicktime.  Yet I was moving around and checking my iso, and others.

1   

2 

ISO          Apperture      stutter

1:1000           40               999

2: 320            50               3.45

I did another video using the camera just didn't look at the details on them.

So try to look at the iso, stutter and aperture when using the dslr campera's so know what you use if wanted to use the same shot again.

24.5.16 group - audio for suspence

Just done a finished work of the interview and edit it, still too big to go on blogger.

Okay next time for group projects have people who does come to class but I guess have to email and text them to come and inform them to come to class or it be a fail as a group project.  

Name of group - nightkeepers (the crows)

With not many people in our group here so we are looking for audio to go on our video 

Choosing sound affects is hard but free download are harder, below is from this website that we may use for our video which I choose:  

http://www.musicnote-world.com/bgm/horror.html

Beginning of the end

Pandora's Box

Cult horror movie

http://soundscrate.com/tones.html

Suspenseful - Piano Clang and Strings
Suspenseful - Dark Texture

http://soundbible.com/tags-suspense.html

Karate Punch Suspense

Suspense

Extreme Horror FX

Movie Freaky Scene

Mixing the sound and have two playing at the same time is scary and cool at the same time I add Beginning of the end and Pandora's Box.

Watch Cape Fear (1962) Suspense

• guy hidden 
• door opening by kick

Fear

• girl behind the door on bed
• guy closer to girl
• girl try to run - guy grabs her
• door closes

11.5.16 practise interview

formal setting for the interview - crew two to three people but mainly two

• three chairs, two chairs opposite each other but still apart
• camera person
• recorder and sound person
• interviewee and interviewer

We only did one interview as we didn't really get it and we were still set-up the equipment and what kind of questions we should ask had Rob to help out with the camera as it when to close on the person and Caroline wrote questions down on her note - refill

There is more but too big to go on the blog.

I video a bit of where we did our second bit interview - same person

This is from my phone 

I was the one who had to clap for them as I was watching from a far.

Next time I'll watch from behind the camera so I know what to do when I use the DSLR.

When I touch the camera its almost like the normal ones we use last term while the Dslrs are alot different as you can turn them around and add other lens to them.

Editing the interview was short but will edit in a later date

17.5.16 Suspence

Many videos I never hear or seen before.

The suspense of the videos is to make you feel (pain but bringing nervous to your  mind and playing with you mentally.

The mood is tensed and can be relax by breathing normally and the characters can show how weird scary it is or not.

December

• dark and less light - make to look (what's is it about?)
• characters - close and serious
• on the ground - laying on side
• being pulled and throw into the back of a truck
• roped over 
• dark setting of old house
• sound of the saw
• again with moving the camera
• in a warm place and children running happy - which change the mood

Rear Window

• character been valuable - (he is in a wheelchair and his leg is up and banaged)
• dark room
• characters getting serious and worried
• the door (underneath lights on) 
• lights off and still less light
• door opens but still dark
• goes back to the character and to the other one
• voice (scared but asking questions)
• silence
• closer and closer
• other characters on the run to help
• Flash
• the circle around the bad characters eyes when blinking
• orange colour

Munich

• camera being close and far
• making sure the right people are out of the house 
• audience knows what's going on but not the characters
• we know the bomb is made and connect to the phone 
• daylight and within the buildings
• dark lights for making the bomb
• truck 
• the little girl in red - we will worry for her safety
• silence
• dropping the phone
• characters - nervous and serious
• the guys running to car
• clothes are dark too 

No Country for old men

• colours brown and yellow
• shadows alot
• character being a bit tight
• room being a bit dark
• door and character
• guy ready if they came in
• go out the window
• running
• close view and far
• the background of the guy running is close while the background is a bit fizz out a bit - so it looks like they use zoom out while he was in
• wide space - empty street and night 
• breathing hard - scared and then softer - calm and back to earth
• right to the point with shooting at the driver 
• glass being shot at - for me I think they add a clear sticker to the glass and when someone else (crew) press the button at that time it will break (glass)

The Hunt locker

• environment - old and broken buildings
• characters - tight and nervous
• camera shake
• two screens being cut - parallel cut
• audio - three things going on at same time but some are quiet than most (breathing, running on stairs and background)

Diegetic - sound that we can hear and the characters too (everyday sounds outside and in

Internal diegetic - sound only the character can hear in their minds

Non diegetic - sound effect, music 

Dutch Tilt 

Why they use this method in some movies - give tension and make you uneasy and think more.

Here is my outtake video that I did for Akiba Con it's not my practise one but just I watch Back to the future when I edit this and it didn't go on my laptop so I just remade and made sure it was right in the media encoding, however I notice a lot of mistakes I did in that video not this one well I guess there a lot in this one too mistakes but I learn how to work the camera and the mic and recorder.  

My mistakes for using the camera as practise

• my brother didn't know how to use it
• I have to stay away from the frame when shooting something else
• I wasn't in middle frame
• not much light going in
• check the framing and lighting on the camera
• sounding of mic was in right volume
• did retakes - myself

I keep the recorder and video on until we came out of the building.

 Was going to be my 7 mins video, Pokemon challenge that was in the city but it's already past. Was going to the spca and interview with them and animals but a bit far and got to ask if I can video in there, so I was going to interview me with my children (pets) and other people I know who has pets now I'm not sure.

I did have questions if I did the interview

1. When you got your pet is there a story behind them?
2. What is the weird thing they have ever done?

Watching Maleficent, I found a suspense within it - its when Maleficent's shadow appears and music plays and she enters the castle and everyone gasps.

10.5.16 Learn of the DSLR

Learn grammar and punctuation as we almost have the same in our blog


DSLR - big brother to the camera we used last term.  It's a moving and still camera.

Focus - more better, depends on the lighting too,  the bigger the sensor the image gets darker and the less the lighter - unless it's the other way.

DSLR camera, 50 lens and tripod

Make sure not to finger the camera when lens are off or it ruin the shot


Groups of two sides left and right with the use of the camera.

Camera's brands

• Cannon
• Sony
• Pansonic

Ta took our pictures and we open linda.com - up and down with DSLR film making but we watched on the procetor.   Which learned last term - ISO, Aperture, Shutter and Fstop.  But in more detail for the Fstop, which is a fraction of the number.

ISO and sound make them good.   Three different kinds of lens  but only use - prime and zoom
Prime lens can't really move but are sharper and faster.

When using the camera always format and make sure on right view and delete unwanted video and charge for next user.

Stutter always on 50 and on manual.

1920x1080 - almost around the green wall
1280x720 - smaller, soft and less sharp

We follow Glen to his favourite place - quiet to use long hallway


50 lens camera - for fun and practise

   

video - practise as a class  

I was nervous at first but still, until I was in the background for the other ones we did to practise.  However I try to think of something and try not look nervous and I need to look at something so I looked over to the other side where no one was in.

Normal camera use

When Glen left to get the 50 prime lens

next we all practise on turns with the camera - DSLR

Yet we still think it's better to be in a group, coming back Mele put one camera in the mac to get all that was on camera while Johnson did on Glen's but didn't go so well and Glen did it for us through he forgot the pictures, nevermind it's okay and I was wondering what DSLR stand for so I looked it up. 

Looks like I got to edit everything again - to make sense.

Here I use my phone to capture what we were doing

We all had fun and take turns of using the DSLR's

short one plus 8.5.16

today just watch a video of a friend of mine as she change how it sounded and she edit it somehow and is on her facebook page, I have to say she add cool effects to the video

8.5.16

I edit a 3 and a half mins of what was going to be my plan for the 7 mins one but I thought we will use the camera that we being using but I found out later that we are using another.  I edit on my laptop PR but I notice that the sound on the video wasn't going so I add the mic and I was going to export it but it didn't quite work so I may have to rename them soon and I'll still edit it later

But I redo them again same still happen still didn't and one fail so I don't know so I may have to start from the beginning and try again

when I edit this one I watched 'Back to the Future' out-takes first before I thought that will be fun to do.

2.5.16 update 4 minutes video

Okay didn't like my other video I did so I redo it and add some titles for the names of the people in my video and fix my sis one so hope its better and export it again

 sorry I'm going to delete my old of the server and add my updated one but I'll still keep my old one on my desktop. (if want to see the first one ask me and I'll give it)

have to remember to name my film I forgot to
