Rape awarness PSA

This week in media we had to create a film about rape awareness, We worked in groups, we first had to plan what we was going to film on storyboards, We all had to think about misce-en-scene, location, and if there was any shadows or reflections (like in the previous film), We used a range of techniques on the camcorder when filming and used a variety of shots in the production.

One type of filming process we used was Tracking, This was quite a difficult scene to shoot as I had to run with the camcorder and try to be as steady as I could be. However when we edit this we can change it to make it look steady. we still need to edit and add text etc. into the PSA.

The research that I did before hand has helped me in planning and also I will need to research facts and figures which will be added in at the end of our film.

By making this films it is helping me practise for my final peice of coursework and is helping me in using equiptment such as camcorders and Mac's to edit with.

So I would give this peice of work a level 2 according to the sheet we have as the film shows that the shots were steady, however the last shot was not as steady as we had hoped as it was a difficult scene to film, framing a shot, various shot differences, the appropriet material was used, also appropriet mise-en-scene,suitable editing as we added useful text and facts, use of sound within the editing process; we choose to have no sound in our film as it was more effective. and am pleased with the end result.
