JUNO Task Review


JUNO Filming Review

You are editing your own footage - how the filming went?
The filming went well. We used a tripod throughout the filming and had Chris filming each scene as we went along to keep consistency in our quality of footage.
Was your storyboard accurate?
The storyboard was accurate but we made a few little mistake during our filming where we should have filmed with Molly standing at a different angle.
What were your strengths and weaknesses in the group?
We understood the task well and did not rush anything, trying to make sure each shot was perfect. Our weakness was we did not put as much work in, out of lesson time as we should have in the end.
Did you get all the footage you needed?
We did manage to get all the footage needed. Although some of our clips did not meet the length of the clips compared to the real film. Therefore we had to edit the footage so it was slowed down.
What technical skills either camera or premiere did you learn? How does it compare to the original?
I learnt all the basics about filming and the camera. How to take photos and videos, how to watch my footage back and to delete the unwanted clips. Also i now understand how to upload the footage from the camera to the computer. Finally i learnt the different effects on premiere and how to control these effects and also how to remove a videos audio and replace it with a song or custom audio.
What went well - What I learnt - What I will take with me to the next production?
A lot of shots were the correct length and the correct shot.

I learnt how much you need to focus on every shot and to take as many shots as possible to be able to pick the best one out of the lot.
