A2 – The Scene In Cinema 2021 Reflective Writing 2

This week we start to learn the preparation of film making. During the classes, we focus on the floor plan, storyboard, editing storyboard, and shooting list. We also mention how to mark up the script and did some exercise on it. The key point of marking script is letting staff members understand which actor should appeal on location or what is happening during this part. These are the most powerful communication tools in filmmaking. By understanding how to mark up the script I believe it can develop a stronger efficiency during the filming in the future. We also get into groups to discuss a class exercise. This exercise is about marking a movie clip provide. There are different opinions between my group members, one person thinks it has used 4 shots, the other person thinks it has used 6 shots. What happened in this clip is that the footage has been edit in post-production. The camera films from 4 different angles in the scene. The editor has edit 4 footage with the editing method and brings them to the screen. This method is the same method we used during the editing of exercise 2 when we during the film and editing of the script.
we also mention screen direction. This is one of the key elements in filmmaking. It is the smoothness in a set of shots. The audience will feel chaos if the screen direction isn’t smooth. Screen direction always achieve by a set of shots with continuity editing or the smoothness can be achieved by moving, pan, and till camera. During the class, we also found a clip that breaks 180-degree rules. That clip has provided enough information before the breaking of the rules. It doesn’t affect any screen direction or causes chaos to the audience during the film. This is a good example of breaking 180-degree rules.
