Media Studies - Question 3

1. Question 3
Areas for Development

2. Lighting
If I was to re-do the task
or do a different task, I
would ensure the lighting
was more alike in the
shots so when it is
watched it looks better
when moving swapping
to a different shot.

3. Sound
The music was too loud
when we added it to the
clip for the background
meaning we could not
hear the conversation as
loud as we wanted so if I
was to re-do it, I would
ensure the music was a
reasonable noise level
before publishing the
video.

4. Camera
After we had filmed all
the clips, we realised we
had missed one so we
had to film the extra one
on a phone meaning the
quality wasn’t as good
and the clips didn’t flow
as easily as we wanted
to. It ruined the continuity
of the video.

5. Planning & Editing
If I was to use a storyboard for planning and preparing the shots and clips I was filming for
a video, I would make sure I stuck to the plan because when I filmed our preliminary task
we added some scenes and took some out so the video does not match the story
board. By following the story board it ensures we have all the parts and don’t miss
anything and since we didn’t follow ours we did end up making a few mistakes whilst
filming, e.g. forgetting a scene and not doing the ending.
When editing, I would make sure we used out time as effectively as possible. We did
spend a lot of time editing but a lot of the time was looking through effects to try and
find the right ones and for our film there wasn’t many effects which fit our clips.
