We all went out filming our preliminary exercise a couple of weeks ago with our camera and tri-pod. It was the first time that we were using both the camera and the tri-pod, so it was a good activity for our group to get to know how to use the equipment which we will be using for our filming. We filmed all over the school, both inside and outside. For our preliminary exercise we had to film a variety of different shots including: close up shot, extra close up shot, long shot, medium shot, aerial shot and lots more. Then, we had to film two people having a conversation sitting opposite each other and use the camera to zoom in and out to show the character's facial expressions and body language.
Lastly, we had to do a shot following the 180 degree rule, for this we had the camera following a character around a room in a circle to capture the characters every move.
It was a very successful exercise overall and it went very well, we managed to capture all the shots correctly and complete the exercise very well as a group.
