We got told to do a Horror Still Task in groups. We had to do 10 different types of shots.
1.Establishing shot.
2.Close up
3.Extreme close up.
4.Mid shot
5.Long shot
6.Canted shot
7.Point of view
8.Over the shoulder
9.High angle
10.Low angle
We went to the forest and we thought of a story that we wrote down on our story board, and we took pictures of the action using those 10 types of shots for each image.
We took the pictures and then we came up into the classroom and uploaded our pictures into our laptops. (File - Log and transfer) and we used final cut express to use our images. Our teacher gave us the music and the special effects to add to the pictures and to create a dramatic scene.
So we all chose 1 different track for our video and used the pictures in different order.
Then we added special effects to make it more interesting and to make the audience to feel more involved in the scene and to make then know what is happening.
Also i wanted to try something different so i used photoshop to edit most of the images, i nearly ran out of time but they looked better than the original ones.
I think that project went quite well, and there was a dramatic end. But next time the character shouldn't be looking at the camera and get clear shots of what's going on in the story, because to be honest it wasn't really clear, we knew what was going on but the audience was a bit confused, so next time show the audience a clear story.
