Different type of shots in moving images

For The Bench group we have different shot's from different angles and highs. The reason there are different angles because instead of just seeing a scene just in the centre we can see them from different angels like a sky view or low view, A close up to a talking character or side angels focusing on the further person or which angels to see the other person. It make a film better seeing it from so many angels instead off focusing on just one view.


180 degree Rule

The 180 degree rule is used when recording a scene. It's to show two people from a centre view and 2 side views.

From the side view you are only focusing on the person further away from you, Its the same for both sides.

The 180 degree rule is when you recorded two people ever standing or sitting facing each other or just next to them. where their ever standing or sitting there is a line across them, If you record on one side of that line you can't go over the line otherwise you will break the 180 degree rule.

When using this rule you can not break it because if you do it will end up looking odd. Recording from the centre is always ok but from the sides you've got to do it right.

Two people standing  in front of each other, recoding the centre on the left side of the two people. Now that you have chosen your side you need to stay on that side when recoding the side shots. If you go on the other side and recorded the side shot it going to look like their standing in the wrong places from where they were from the centre shots.


short film with different video angels

In this short film that our group filmed, we used 3 different shot angles using the 180 degree rule.

We use a centre close up, So we only got both of their head and half of their upper body. The reason we did this is to we could see which side they are sitting and it look better because there're only sat down so it looks better just getting a close up on just their faces.

We then did a right side shot mostly focusing on Aaron. We did this because when I edited the video it helps shows that from the centre to the side filming it shows that he's sitting in the same place and it focus on him.

With the left side it's mostly the same it show that their sitting on the right side just like the first clip and that we're focusing on the person further on the other side of the Aaron.

reflective blog post of postcard and production processes

Bath Abbey Postcard

Looking back at making the postcard I think when looking up different postcards I think next time maybe go with something a bit more colourful or brighter. But I do like the postcard I did chose.

I chose a old postcard from Salem of the witch house, Which I tried to use as the idea for my postcard.  New Orlean base on the Mardi Gras which again looked old but had more colour on it and the another postcard from Salem more like a painting of a church with the path way.



Finding the right background for the postcard was easy, Adding the colours to the photo was difficult. Since I'm so used to photoshop I did have some trouble with it but at the end I finally go the colours on. I did use the same colour from the which house for the church. The sky I did try to use the colour from the salem postcard but ended up just using brown and silver (Brown the sky, Silver the clouds) But it never looked right but I just left it but it did look ok. At the end it wasn't quite how I image it to be, Not what I had vision, But for a first time it was good.

What I would do differently?

Differently I would like to have redone the sky and find a way to be able to keep the sky how it is but just to be able to change it to the same colours as the sky in the The old witch house, Salem postcard.

Does it appeal to your choose audiences?

I think it does appeal to my chosen audiences because I tried to make it an older design and I think older people would like this especially if their also religious they'll like the Bath Abbey in the background.



Secondary Research & Why both Primary and Secondary are effective/importance



Both Primary and Secondary are used to get information but in different ways. 

Primary Research is when people use surveys interview, questionaries or even group to get information from different people in interview or group gathering whereas Secondary Research they use the internet or magazines to find out information.

With Primary research asking people in interview about media is effective because you are asking an actual person not just using a computer to get information from, Another great way is in groups because that way you get more opinion and different answers. The importance of this is that this way you get people honest option and it looks better when people know that a company has asked people in person.

Secondary Research is also an effective because it uses the internet and magazines which has lots of information. With magazines you get peoples opinion depending on what the magazine is. Using the internet is also effectiveness because you can get information about places or objects fast and definitely get a lot of history. Also it helps keep you up to date with new information.

I found that Secondary is better then primary because in class we got to make a survey about postcard which we put on Facebook for our friends to take part and to share with their friends. For my survey I got 11 responses from my survey which isn't a lot because of the small amount of people it got to.


These are 3 of the websites I found when doing the secondary research
