Preliminary Sequence

Before we begin to work on our own opening sequences, we got given the chance to experience the use of the camera and how to do various shot types in different setting. As a group we went to many different areas of the school to see how different light sources affect the outcome of the picture, and we all had a go at using the camera on the tripod. This was also a great chance to get practice on different shot types such as a pan and a crash zoom. Which are popular shots we may use in our final piece of work. We then got a greater understanding of using the new editing softwares that were still very new to us. We learnt how to extract different parts of our filming and join them to other parts using techniques such as fade ins. This was a great success to practice for our real sequence.
