Tutorial Four: Video Production Sessions

Scripting
What are we?


The group task was to select a letter from the alphabet. With our assigned group,video a short set that will demonstrate an understanding of the letter. It may take the format of a mystery letter.Our group selected the letter ‘S’.  With this three of the group formed the letter ‘S’ by lying on the field under the Sun. The group then displayed various actions using the letter ‘s’ in the word. see the video on the Blog site.
With windows short movie guide we were able crop, edit and attach sound to our film.

Story boarding and special effects can be followed and are simplified in windows short movie.
A good script should include moods & expressions, special effects, sound track instructions, background sound and setting, lighting and camera angles and type shot. The more detail the author includes the closer to his or her own intention will be the end product.


When writing a script consider the following points: What the aim of the film is, who is viewing it, age appropriate.? Is the idea relevant to the audience?  Develop your lead character/subject for documentary. Come up with a setup, interesting solution or objective. Map out a beginning, middle and end. Include movements, consider the lighting, sound and camera effects.As you can see when videoing a movie or film there are a lot of ideas to consider. Then when producing the video, who are the actors, what sound, what actions and background imaging do you want in your movie production. So far that was the easy part.
