Preliminary Task 1- Practice shots

Practice Shots

Our intention with this task was to familiarise ourselves with the Camera equipment as well as to practice the shots we have been studying to see their effect for ourselves. We practiced filming a variety of different shots including:

• Close up shots
• Over the shoulder shots (left and right)
• Wide shots
• High angle shots
• Silhouette

Furthermore this task tested our ability to be creative and think on the spot as we were filming under strict time constraints with no prior planning. Overall this has been extremely purposeful as we have been able to identify which areas we need to improve on, like our ability to move the camera steadily, framing effectively and not having any negative space.
