This production diary details the filming of scenes for a movie over two dates. On October 16th, 2018, the filmmaker shot the first scene between two characters at one of the actor's houses using a camera and tripod. They captured an establishing shot, tracking shot, and two shot. On January 15th, 2019, most of the film was recorded at the college using different cameras and tripods. Various shots were used including sequence shots, medium long shots, bust shots, and two/three shots to frame the scenes appropriately. It took multiple attempts to film each scene due to minor issues that arose.
The document discusses the props, costumes, and locations that will be used to film a music video. There will be four props - tea light candles surrounding a bath, a guitar played by the actor at the start, and a dress worn by the actor that is white but torn at the bottom. There will also be four locations - a long grass field where the actor walks and sings, a bathroom with candles around the bath, the bottom of a staircase, and a bedroom where the actor lays on the bed singing. The props and locations were chosen to set intimate and emotional scenes to match the indie folk song and tell a narrative of the actor searching for someone through the different areas of a house.
The document discusses two filming locations - a grassy area near a college that is used for a scene where a character hands another a rose, and fits well with the script. A second location across the road from the grassy area is a strip of road used for a scene where a character walks down the road. Both locations are local and convenient for the filming group.
The document outlines the filming schedule and process for a student film project over three days. It discusses establishing shots, costumes, lighting, directing roles, and challenges faced with weather, distractions, and improvising equipment. Key scenes were the establishing shot from a pole and lighting issues addressed by using bathroom and torch lights when flickering lights were unavailable. Filming was most organized and easiest on the third day after the bulk was completed on the second day.
Day 1 of filming focused on Richard Bolter's scenes, including stationary shots, moving the camera horizontally opposite his running direction, and asking him to look in different directions. Day 2 involved filming environmental elements like wind moving trees and grass to add to the cut sequence. Day 3 centered on filming Grace wearing a denim jacket, including stationary and pan shots as well as using camera straps and a lanyard to create spinning footage while she laid down. Day 4 was dedicated to filming Ellie for the opening sequence, including takes of her falling to her knees and running through an alley.
Michael Wells chose several locations to film shots for a music video. The locations included open areas to get great shots, remote places for extra footage in different environments, areas with signs in the shot, roads for shots of the actor walking and being filmed from a vehicle, secluded yet public roads, and a house where the actor would walk into and the band would play. Wells planned to film at each location in different weather conditions to vary the backgrounds while keeping the actor in the same place, and to use various locations to make the video visually impressive while acknowledging the challenge of transporting actors between sites.
The document discusses potential filming locations for a student short film. It provides photos and assessments of 5 different locations, considering factors like available lighting, space to film, and moods the locations could create. The best locations would provide natural lighting, enough room to film, and settings that match the secluded and tense atmosphere envisioned for the film. Scouting locations in advance will help ensure the filmmakers can find suitable alternatives if their preferred locations become unavailable.
The document summarizes 7 days of filming for a student film project. Over the course of filming:
- Various scenes were shot on location in parks, houses, a pub, and around town to capture establishing shots.
- Challenges included uncontrolled elements like people walking into shots, unfavorable lighting conditions, and busy locations.
- Scenes were re-shot to improve focus and lighting when initial takes did not meet expectations.
- By the final day of filming, all planned scenes had been captured along with pickup shots, completing principal photography.

The document discusses various location options for filming a music video that will show an actor's transition from urban to rural environments. Woodthorpe woods and laybys will be used to film rural shots where the actor becomes calm. Lendal Bridge steps and York Minster will be used for urban shots at the beginning to show the actor starting in the city. Further locations like Hob Moor will provide additional rural settings to demonstrate the journey from urban to rural places.
In their preliminary task, the filmmaker learned several lessons about improving camera work, use of close-ups, sound design, editing, and mise-en-scene in their full product. Specifically, they learned to use steadier camera work, less overdramatic close-ups, building tension gradually with sound over time, adding movement to lengthy shots, and better planning props to fit the intended atmosphere. These lessons helped them create a more polished and engaging final product.
The document outlines the storyboard and filming plan for a music video. It describes several scenes: 1) A female actor alone in a room looking distressed; 2) The main actor on a bridge holding a photograph; 3) The actor sitting on a train station bench looking at the photograph; 4) A close-up shot of the actor singing directly to the camera. It provides details on lighting, camera angles, timing, and continuity between scenes to tell a narrative story through the video.
This document discusses four potential filming locations for a project called RECCE:
1. Goatspen car park in the New Forest - This outdoor location would require driving but could have other people or animals present. A risk assessment was completed.
2. The filmmaker's own bedroom - This indoor location is easily accessible but has mirrors along one wall that need to be considered for camera placement.
3. The filmmaker's living room - This indoor location is available whenever needed but has family photos in the background that don't match the character, so they will need to be kept out of shot.
4. A house for a party scene - This location was chosen because an authentic party was
Film comparison with Welcome to the PunchMellowShark
This document compares conventions from the film "Welcome to the Punch" to the filmmaker's own film "Catalyst." It discusses how shots from "Welcome to the Punch" showing isolation of the protagonist and antagonists were used in scenes in "Catalyst." It also discusses how a shot from "Welcome to the Punch" placing characters in an uncomfortable situation was merged into the climax of "Catalyst." Additionally, the mystery-fueled opening sequence from "Welcome to the Punch" inspired the poster design for "Catalyst" which features the protagonist running down a tunnel.
The document provides details for filming a 2 minute horror sequence called "After Hours" at Brinkburn College on November 11th. It lists the main actor and supporting role, cameramen, camera equipment, props needed, and wardrobe. It also describes 3 filming locations - the front of the college for an establishing shot, the back of the college where strange events begin to occur, and a dark room inside the college for the climax.
The document provides instructions for replicating shots from the Ben Howard music video "Old Pine". It details that nature shots showing sunlight reflecting through plants should be filmed from low angles. Additional shots include Ben Howard singing facing the camera down an empty road, timelapse shots of clouds moving across the sky from morning to evening filmed with multiple cameras, and close-ups of Howard singing intercut with the cloud shots. The final shot is of Howard running away from the camera down a path. Care must be taken to film the sky shots on a cloudy day and to get an actor comfortable lip syncing the song.

This production call sheet outlines the details for a music video shoot, including:
- Contact information for the production company (Square Bracket Productions) and crew members, all of which are the same person (Adam Grundy)
- Three shooting locations - an alley, field, and street near the director's house
- Eight scenes to be shot at the locations, covering character development and key story elements
- Equipment needed, including a camera, tripod, and props like baseball bats, posters, and costumes like hoodies
- Shooting will utilize locations suited to the underground/urban genre of the video in terms of aesthetic and using them for character development scenes
The document provides an analysis of two film scene summaries created by a student - "Abandoned" and "Dark Days". For "Abandoned", the student used basic shots that did not look professional. In contrast, the shots used for "Dark Days" were more advanced, with techniques like low angle shots placed more suitably. The analysis indicates the student improved in their technical skills and understanding of shot composition between the two projects.
The document discusses the locations used for shooting a film preliminary task. The first location was the school corridor by the lockers to introduce the main character standing out against a plain background. The second location was the corridor leading to the stairs to show the character walking toward the next area. The third location used the stairs to clearly show the character following another character and lead viewers to the next floor location. The stairs also prevented confusing viewers about how the characters suddenly reached the top floor. Further locations included opposite sides of the same area for a mugging scene and a central area for a chase scene climax.
The opening sequence of The Grudge establishes suspense through its use of camera techniques, editing, mise-en-scene, and sound. Tilt shots introduce the setting and characters, with zooms and pans showing emotion. Text at the beginning hooks the audience by highlighting words like "Curse" and "Death". The music starts quietly but builds tension. Peter's confused behavior and run-down home suggest something sinister will happen, and his sudden death leaves audiences wondering its significance and connection to the film's curse.
The document discusses several filming locations used for a short film project. The first location was chosen because it was quiet with no signs of modern times. It provided bright lighting that would work well for converting to black and white. The second location was across the road from the first so characters could see each other realistically. It provided a long stretch of road needed to get different shot types. The third location featured the main character walking down the road and was chosen for its clear view with few people and sloped road that framed the character walking into the shot.
Early cinema and the pioneers of film editingOndera15
This document analyzes the 1895 film "Arrival of a Train at La Ciotat", one of the earliest documentary films ever made. It notes that the 54 second film featured a train arriving at a station and people boarding, with no editing throughout. As one of the first films ever created, the Lumiere brothers focused simply on capturing the actual events rather than narrative or production elements. The single continuous shot established the setting and used long shots, medium shots, and close-ups of the train through its movement alone.
The document is a music video production diary that provides screenshots and explanations of scenes filmed for a student music video. It describes two outdoor locations used for shooting, including a forest pathway and outdoor gym. It explains that establishing shots of the forest environment were captured to fill time and establish the setting. A black and white flashback scene was filmed at the outdoor gym with help from other students. The diary provides context for various shots, such as using facial expressions and camera angles to portray a sense of being lost in the forest. Symbols were incorporated throughout the video and close-up shots were taken to link the symbols together.

The document summarizes the filming day for a student film project. It discusses how the students followed their storyboard but found additional shot opportunities. Throughout the day, they got more creative and added shots while still sticking to the overall storyboard. It describes some specific shots that were added, like a close-up of a character's feet walking. The document also notes some technical problems encountered, like accidentally turning off exposure lock, and how the filmmaker gained skills in lighting, camera settings, and efficient production.
The document discusses potential ideas and plans for three short thriller film projects. It chooses the third idea of a boy filming a school project who is attacked by an unknown man. It discusses the locations that will be used - a house in Crick and fields in East Haddon. It also includes character profiles, costume and prop details, and a pre-production shot list discussing thriller genre research and taking inspiration from the popular thriller film Prisoners.
The document discusses various technologies used in filming a project, including cameras, camera movements, microphones, and lighting. It describes learning about camera focus and using a Panasonic HD camcorder. Camera movements like a "crab" around a car are discussed. Both boom and clip microphones were used, each with pros and cons. Lighting was challenging with some scenes being too bright; mirrors were used to reflect sunlight onto faces as makeshift fill lights.
The document discusses various film techniques used in the student's media studies coursework. It provides details on shots filmed for the preliminary task, including a match on action, 180 degree rule, and shot reverse shot. Planning and filming for the main horror title sequence is also outlined, along with editing of both pieces. Risk assessments and audience feedback are analyzed.
The document describes the filming and editing process for a media studies coursework project. It discusses the various shots filmed, including match on action, 180 degree rule and shot reverse shot. Issues encountered during filming such as unstable camerawork and lighting are mentioned. Risk assessments were performed for the outdoor location. The summarizer edited the preliminary and main tasks using iMovie software.
1) The document provides updates on the filming and editing process for the film "The Ruin's Mist" over 4 days of filming and 3 weeks of editing.
2) Filming locations included a classroom, bedroom, and woods. Consistency in actors, lighting, and locations posed challenges. Extra lighting was sometimes problematic.
3) During editing, footage was arranged and transitions added in Movie Studio Platinum. Effects and filters were used to address mistakes and set atmosphere. Titling was created in Photoshop. Sound editing addressed volume, extraneous noises, and diegetic/non-diegetic elements.
The document discusses locations for filming a short horror film about zombies inside and outside the filmmaker's house. The opening scene will be filmed outside the house to set up the film. Most of the action will take place inside the house. A key second scene will be filmed in the hallway where the main characters meet. The final scene will be filmed in the cellar, which is an important location to show a close-up of a zombie. The living room is another main location that will feature one of the central scenes. All locations are convenient to use without needing to travel or make bookings.
The document provides location reports for several scenes in a short horror film, including the protagonist's bedroom, parents' bedroom, bathroom, landing, street, and alleyway. The protagonist's bedroom and parents' bedroom will be filmed in the filmmaker's home to provide realism and for a conventional murder scene, with potential minor lighting issues addressed by closing curtains. The bathroom brings more dynamic lighting. Potential sound issues exist on the street and alleyway but minimal in private home locations. Lighting in the alleyway enhances its sinister atmosphere.
The filmmakers decided to film as much as possible in one night. They charged the camera battery before setting up the camera on a tripod to ensure it would not turn off during shooting. They filmed the scenes without flashbacks first since the main character would be in the same state of mind and clothing. The camera and tripod from the college were used to get clear, professional footage without unnecessary shaking. No studio lighting or microphone were used to keep the scenes looking natural. Some practice takes helped them get used to filming before shooting the first real scenes. The only initial problem was the tripod slipping, but this was fixed by securing the clips. Pre-production and storyboarding helped the filming go smoothly by knowing what shots were
This document provides production screenshots and descriptions from the filming of a music video over two days. On the first day, challenging shots included one where the actor had to stand in the cold rain to look mysterious, and another where torches had to be used under a bandstand with little light. The actor's favorite shot on day one showed him mysteriously walking and disappearing into the night. On the second day, difficult shots included one where the actor had to swing a weapon near another actor without hitting her, and another where an actor struggled to open a door. Throughout the two days of filming, the filmmaker worked to get shots that advanced the story and fit with the music through multiple takes and creative lighting and editing techniques.

The document contains reviews and feedback on three opening film scenes. Key points made include:
1) The use of different camera angles and shots was effective in showing the scenes and building tension.
2) The settings and locations could be improved to be more realistic for scenes like drug deals or murders.
3) Sound quality was an issue in one scene where background rain noise made dialogue hard to understand.
4) One fight scene went on too long and risked losing the audience's interest.
The reviews highlight lessons on using varied camera techniques, choosing appropriate settings, ensuring clear sound, and optimizing scene lengths to improve future film openings.
Daniel created a music video to accompany his song "Only in the West". He filmed scenes in and around York over two days to capture different shots from various angles. Editing involved compiling the shots and structuring them to fit the music and tell a story of unkind actions unfolding between characters. Daniel aimed to use camera techniques like zoom and focus to portray the perspective of someone witnessing nighttime events while intoxicated. Though he was unable to complete the planned animation element due to time constraints, Daniel was happy with how he used camera work and editing to keep viewers engaged throughout the video.
The document provides information about single camera production. It notes that single camera means only using one camera to film an entire scene. This allows characters to move naturally but requires resetting camera positions between shots. Single camera production has advantages like being cheaper, requiring less equipment and space, and improving filmmaking skills through camera placement. However, it also has disadvantages like losing footage if the camera breaks and taking longer to film. Found footage films like Quarantine use single camera to appear more realistic since it's presented as raw footage being filmed. Quarantine's linear story and use of a single camera help maintain the found footage illusion.

Sound is important in radio dramas to set the atmosphere and keep listeners interested through effects and music. Silence identifies scene changes or ends through fading. Fades also mark the end or beginning of scenes or episodes. Music is key to creating atmosphere, and larger productions may include jingles. Dialogue tells the story through a range of accents and cultures to sound realistic, as required by equality laws. Words and voices are the backbone of radio dramas, using narration and description to set the scene, develop characters, and help listeners visualize the story clearly.
- Sound editing involves adding or removing sounds to make scenes more realistic, intense, or dramatic for viewers. Foley sounds are often used to recreate sounds that were difficult to capture during filming.
- Documentaries and nature shows frequently edit sounds to focus on specific animals or noises and remove unwanted background sounds. Scripted shows may add punches or impact sounds to action scenes.
- Star Wars famously used creative foley work to develop Chewbacca's distinctive vocalizations by combining animal sounds. Foley artists strive to make fictional sounds believable through experimentation.
- Editing sounds requires specialized software and removing extra noise at the start or end of audio clips to focus on dialogue. Adjusting levels ensures all audio
- Sound editors add sound effects to make nature documentaries more realistic and intense for viewers since they cannot capture authentic animal sounds. Extra sounds are added to fights and other scenes.
- Foley artists create fictional sounds, like Chewbacca's voice, by combining animal noises. They aim to engage audiences through believable sound effects.
- When editing sound, software like Logic Pro and Premiere Pro are used along with keyboard shortcuts to trim clips, adjust volume levels, and organize audio files. Multiple takes may need to be recorded and edited to achieve the best quality.

A single camera production involves filming scenes with one camera, requiring more editing than multi-camera productions. It allows for more creative control over lighting, sound, and actor scheduling, but takes longer and requires repeating shots from different angles. Examples given include sitcoms from the 1960s-70s like Bewitched and Hogan's Heroes, which used single camera techniques. Advantages include lower cost and more flexible shooting, while disadvantages include longer production time and less realistic reactions without other actors present. Doctor Who and Miranda are analyzed as examples using single camera techniques like over-the-shoulder shots and breaking the fourth wall. A shot from The Shining using a Steadicam to follow a child through a house is described as creating

1. This shot took place in my house and it was
from the first couple of scenes of my film.
For this hot I used a tripod and a camera, I
didn’t have to use a mic because there was
no dialogue at this point of my film. I had to
take this shot 2 times because the first time
there was no light on so when I watched it
back you could see the actor, then the
second shot was perfect. I knew exactly
what I had and wanted to film because I
storyboarded it all before hand. When I
edited this into my film I removed the
background sound and added a soundtrack
over the top of it.
This shot took place in the middle of a public park.
This shot took 3 times to get it correct because the
first time a dog ran in the shot and then the second
a person was walking by. This was one of the first
shots from filming outside in public. We had to
place the camera at a certain angle because the sun
was always reflecting off the camera and you could
never see the film. I storyboarded it a different way
to how we filmed it because the sun and the public
was always blocking the cameras view. I turned
down the volume on the video to make it quieter
because I wanted to still here the trees and birds to
make it more natural but I also still wanted to here
the soundtrack behind it. The camera angle we
used for this shot was a pan because we wanted
the camera to follow the actor walking.
This shot was also took in a park. This shot took 2
times to get it perfect because the first time the
actor fell over. However, when we filmed it the
second time it was perfect. I storyboarded it
exactly the way we filmed it. To achieve this shot
we used a tripod and a camera. The sun was used
as our lighting and we didn’t use a mic because
there was no dialogue in this scene. Before filming
this scene we had a look through the trees for any
potential harmful items. I removed the sound from
this scene so I could hear the soundtrack. We
came to film this the day before however, as soon
as we got the camera out it started to rain so we
had to come back the day after. The camera angle
we used for this shot was a pan because we
wanted the camera to follow the actor running.
