This week is the last week of class. We watched some clips in a film and some behind the scene relate to it. It is interesting to know how the director plans the shot before the filming. During the talking of the director, we are able to identify how he thinks about the scene and what he is planning to do. The most interesting part is how he plans the lady actor to engage with the kid. Director also thinks about how the lady feels when she acting the scenes. He also plans out the entire moving action for the actors and the emotion happens while actors are moving. The way he thinks about this engaging part is a greater example that brings me some new ideas on the coming film I am going to make. Also during the watching, I get a better understanding of how the main production crew communicates with each other. Base on their discussion both parties will bring out the idea they think and they will put them together to see if the ideas work for the scene. Their communication is efficient and accurate.
In further research on the behind the scene. I found that different director has different of communication ways. Some of them will tell the crew what is happening in detail. Some of the directors won’t. There will be some chances that DP and the director will have arguments about camera coverage. It is hard to come by 2 different minds together. however, most of the filmmakers are able to find out a solution to solve the issue in a short time that both parties are happy with.
The classes this week are the last week of the classes this semester. Thanks for the teaching from Mr.Robin. I learn a lot this semester.
