We were given a new assignment. This was to create a thriller film. We then went to the computer room to learn the following:
Put clips together
Cut clips
Add transitions
We then got into groups of 5
Our first task was to create a practice film clip that involved a card game. We made sure we were taking in account of angle shots, distance. To create an effect of suspense and mystery. We planned our storyboard and discussed the props we needed to use for the thriller. For example: sunglasses for bien to look mysterious. We made 12 shots.

This lesson was the practical part of the assignment.
So Andrew our media teacher taught us how to manage a camera for our filming.
He showed us how to switch the camera on and off, put it on a tripod, rewind, forward, play, stop, record and put it on a standby, position taking in account the different types of shots. After using the detailed storyboard, we started recording. We were 1st located in the new hall. Whereby we used a panning shot to record biens’s boots while walking. We continued doing several shots mid shots and close ups, handheld on the tripod to see the dealers and the players facial expressions during the game and after the game when grace won the game. We all made sure everyone in the group was in the thriller as well as doing the recording.

We viewed the thriller tape. We then saved the clips on the final cut pro therefore this meant the clips were safe and secure. This enabled me to capture the clips by pressing the play button on the camera and clicked ESC button on the keyboard on each take. The uploaded clips, we began to edit them.
