1. My question was to on the recent new about a mother who left her child in its cot to starve and then after death
she left her dead child for 2 years to in its cot. My question was “what do you think this mother’s punishment
should be” me and my group asked 3 people this question 2 out of 3 people had the same answer. Our brief was to
make a short voxpop in a sequence in school. The purpose of a voxpop is to get a general opinion on a new subject
from random members of the public. The purpose of the task was to practice our practical camera skills Which it did
I learned how to use a tripod and how to attach to the tripod and how to deploy a tripod there allot of key
Camera skills that can be used like talking space that is important to keep the person a little to the left or right this is
also referred as wasted space
In my pre-production it was hard to get someone with a good point of view and every one was in class so it hard to find
any one to choose so in the end we picked any one and also it took us some time to find a good background to fit the
person also we had to pick which person
In my production it wasn't that hard we really only had two bits of equipment to look after and use so we didn't have to
worry we did have to worry about the background nose and if this person didn't look at the camera and kept a formal face
on as well when we actually started the camera it was all smooth the participants were serious and had good response as
well as different from the other 1 only two people had the same opinion than the last
In my post production it was the most difficult because I had never done it before so I was constantly asking for help and
it made it so I had less time for work but it was a good learning experience for me and my group also it was the first time I
edited a voxpop and added text
I developed 3 skills on this project the first was my production skills and I used some new technology like a Mac book and
new editing software which was complicated to start of with but became easer to use with practice the tripod was very easy
to use it, the hardest thing was mounting the video recorder to the tripod
The second was my media skills that was harder because of the search of participants and mese-en-scene this is the when
the participant is shoulder upwards shot and slightly to the left of right also set up wasn't that hard to do because off the
dull colours in our school. Preparations were wasn't that hard either because it was only a tripod, camera spots were going
to use for recording

2. 180-degree rule[1] is a basic guideline
regarding the on-screen spatial
relationship between a character and
another character or object within a
scene. An imaginary line called the axis
connects the characters and by keeping
the camera on one side of this axis for
every shot in the scene, the first
character will always be frame right of
the second character, who is then
always frame left of the first. If the
camera passes over the axis, it is called
jumping the line or crossing the line.
Match on action is a very simple but essential
techique, where the perspective of the camera
changes during a scene and the scene
continues to flow.
is a film technique where one
character is shown looking at
another character (often offscreen), and then the other
character is shown looking back at
the first character. Since the
characters are shown facing in
opposite directions, the viewer
assumes that they are looking at
each other.[1][2]

3. Continuity techniques
The 180 degree rule is guideline that you must consider when recording it is the on screen spatial between
the character and another character or object on scene it is used to keep an object or character on the axis
according to the opposite character or object so the camera man doesn't have to stop filming and can
continuaslly keep shooting the scene and can easily switch back and forth
The shot reverse shot technique is when character is shown on scene and then they cut away to another
character facing the opposite way say it creates the illusion that the two characters are looking at each other
it can be used to save time or film footage also it can be used to mirror two different objects together
Match-on-action is described as a essential technique for continually editing in a way when one shot cuts
away to another shot portraying the topic of the first shot you took it is used when the you would like to
create a visual bridge and it makes it look like there was no editing effects towards the clip or film
