Find the storyboard you created for the last assignment. Today you are going to film that commercial that you storyboarded.
- If you haven't already done so, on your storyboard identify the kinds of shots you will use to fill each section of your video.
- You would normally start with some type of establishing shot that shows what your location is.
- You can pick from a few types of shots, for example
- ECU (extreme close up). This would be called macro in still photography.
- CU (close up). The subject fills the screen.
- MCU (medium close up). You see the subject and some background. It's not really close but not really far.
- MS (mid shot). This shot includes the subject and some amount of the background. You probably don't see the subject's entire body.
- WS (wide shot). You can see the entire subject. The subject probably about fills the entire screen leaving the rest of the shot for background.
- VWS (very wide shot). You can just see the subject. The idea of the shot is to identify the location of the subject.
- EWS (extreme wide shot). Way out there. Your subject is not visible.
- On the storyboard, identify how long each section will take.
- All the shots together should take about two minutes.
- Consider your locations.
- What spot would be best for each of your shots?
- You need to set things up somewhere close to the classroom, perhaps the hall, a stairwell, or just outside.
- If space permits, you can this to your storyboard as well.
- What techniques will you use?
-
Panning
-
Zooming.
-
Framing.
-
Following.
-
Tracking.
- Do you need props, backgrounds or costumes?
- Your shots can be filmed out of order and assembled into the proper sequence.
- Film all the shots in one location at the same time.
- Film the shots for your commercial.
- Load them into Adobe Premiere Elements.
- Rearrange them into the right order.
- Export them as a simple video of about two minutes in length.
Evaluation
- Is it one minutes? (2)
- Did it (roughly) follow the storyboard? (2)
- It is shot in multiple locations? (3)
- Is it shot with multiple types of shots? (3)
