Practice Test


This short task made us focus on using different camera shots to increase tension. This was our second version (The first version was lost from technical difficulties) and it greatly improved on the points that needed work on the original. 
- Don't always film from standing, get down to the action or above it. (We knew this already so we didn't need to improve on it.)
- Lighting is important, make sure you can see what you are filming. (We moved the iPod into the light so that it was clearly visible, as in the original it was hard to see what it was which broke what the enigma code for it was.)
- Make each shot count, show exactly what you want the audience to see. (In the original we tried showing the protagonist sad, but it was not clear. In the revised version we had him wipe his eyes and even have a tear roll down his cheek to get over exactly how he is feeling, making sure the audience understood this so they don't have their own ideas.)
