13. Research - Questionnaire

19. What have you learnt about technologies from the process of constructing this product? Throughout this coursework we have developed a number of skills. Our first workshop was a lighting one in which we learnt the 180 degree lighting and how to set it up. Then we were shown how to edit the light using filters. This we used in our preliminary with the blue lighting behind Josh. The blue lighting gave the sense of the unknown as it prevented the audience to establish a location, and see Torie behind him. We also used low key lighting in our main task, on the picture board. Then shadows are created as Charlotte walks past the light source and it is clear that a figure is present. We filmed a sunset for an hour and learnt how to speed it up so much that it looked like it happened in a number of seconds. Editing the speed of a shot is a skill I have learned throughout this project, as well as editing the sounds that can be used. I have also leant how to use Live Type and been shown all the styles that it uses. After a lighting workshop we realised how much the lighting really affects the whole scene. We used different filters and angles to see the difference it made on the mise en scene. We decided to use dark blue lighting for our preliminary task. This would create a dark feel, to reflect the twisted synopsis. We storyboarded it and decided to film on the stage.
