The document discusses the production skills that improved during the filming and editing of Radio-Waves. It describes how planning and filming techniques became more advanced with each take, incorporating stable footage, close-ups, and rule of thirds compositions. Post-production coloring and sound design were also developed, using blue tints and desaturated colors to match the mood, and high volume wave sounds to set the gloomy atmosphere. Recording and incorporating audio into the soundtrack improved as well, especially capturing the radio host's broadcast which drives the storyline.

1. RADIO-WAVES
PRODUCTION SKILLS

2. DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTION SKILLS
• We improved immensely in the area of organizing the production we had to undertake.
We planned more effectively and had an exact idea of what shots were needed. We
improved the actual filming as we re filmed Radio-Waves several times. Each time
critiquing the errors we made, such as more stable footage, effective close up shots,
effective establishing shots and using the rule of thirds in a wide shot.
• Post production skills of editing we further advanced as we manipulated the shots through
colour tints. The shots in Radio-Waves are made dull and portray the colour blue. The sea
is shown as blue to correlate to the mood of desperation and sadness, similar to the sky
which is displayed as grey blue building further on this prevailing mood. This is to express
the overall theme of death by draining most colour except symbolic blue.

3. DEVELOPMENT OF PRODUCTION SKILLS
• Another post production aspect that was developed as Radio-Waves progressed was
sound. The soundtrack for Radio-Waves was difficult to create initially but we managed to
adapt to the final cut pro sound software. The sound of waves crashing was put at a high
volume to link the atmosphere of the beach to the gloomy mood. Also the skills of audio
recording and incorporating that into Radio-Waves soundtrack has been further improved.
As the film Radio-Waves main attribute which links to the story line is the Radio hosts
audio broadcast.
