The technical skills that AS Media helped us to develop...
Whilst being caught up in all of the preparation, rapid filming, and endless editing during our AS year, me and my group were gradually learning new things through the experience without much realisation. Now in hindsight it is clear that much progression has been made and we have developed a range of useful technical skills through practical experience.
Thinking creatively - instigating ideas for the plot/sub-genre of our thriller
Working well as part of a team - splitting responsibilities fairly & accepting all individuals' opinions
Time management - planning shots/locations/mise en scene realistically in advance to filming
Being consistent - keeping control of blogs
Camera -
Camera angles & shots - Using the biggest variety possible, whilst choosing them appropriately to represent events in the right way (e.g. tracking shots for moving characters, high angle shots to represent victim as inferior in thriller)
Operating the camera - applying the correct settings (auto/manual) - connecting additional features such as microphone and lighting
Editing -
Adding transitions and filters to the video
Using CamTasia software - producing short pitches/explanations for the blog
Foley sounds - Recording them accurately with camera microphone & editing them in at specific parts of the
time-line to match images (matching video+audio)
