Audio Visual P4- Proof of Creating the Audio Visual Promo

Set up of equipment

This is the simple set up where we had the school tripod and the school canon camera, we didn't use the tripod every time we filmed but where it was important we wanted it to be still we used it. We made sure that it was safe to use each item when we was filming to make sure we didn't out ourself or anyone else in danger. We would constantly make sure we are checking for people, busses and cars to make sure we are safe when we film and we don't get people in our shot who aren't wanting to be filmed. 

We followed our storyboard to make sure that every shot was in the right shot, we used our shot sheet too to make sure we know what shots we need or have used. We didn't need or want to use any other equipment because we felt like this would be the most simple way of filming our promo. As a little improvement for us I think  we should have used the tripod all the time though it filming just to make sure everything was level and symmetrical but other than that I think that the equipment used was helpful and simple to us bit it did needed to be used thought out all the filming.

Photos of us doing each job

Olivia editing/ director

Olivia was our director and editing the film for us. She had the storyboard with her so we knew what we needed to film and she made sure that we was in the right positions telling Amira (me) when to start acting. During our editing process Olivia volunteered to do that, she felt confident in learning and trying put new effects we needed for the edit of our video and she has done that with the rest of the groups help. She also used the risk assessment to make sure everything was safe for filming and we didn't run in to very problems. 

Amira acting

I decided to act because I felt like I understood what the storyboard was asking for and what kind of emotions I needed to use to create an effect that were needed. The story board helped me follow what I needed to do and with the director and videographer helping me I knew when I needed to start and stop acting. When acting because I am only focusing on that the director told me when it was safe to go and when we wouldn't be in danger. The videographer made sure that no one was in the shot who didn't want to be filmed so we didn't run into any problems of the pubic. 

We made sure that we were safe and we were in no danger, we didn't film near any busy roads and had someone checking (Olivia) to make sure there were no cars coming. We had someone looking out for the public (Stefano) just in case there were bikes or prams coming through and if so we would stop filming move off to a safe are and then wait until everything was clear. I was also aware of my surroundings, making sure the path and area we was filming was clear of anything we could hurt ourselves on. All of these points were on the risk assessment and we ad that on us too so we could follow it just as we were filming. 

Stefano filming

Stefano was there to help us out with the storyboard and what to do we also helped him know what shots he needed to do as well. We made sure that the area we was in was safe for us to set up our simple equipment. He was our camera man for the rest of the filming, he set up each shot how it needed to be and filmed each part we needed filming and if we had to start over he would check that to make sure the shot was up to the level we needed it to be. When filming we had different shots on our storyboard so as a team we made sure I knew what I was doing, the camera man knew what shot he needed and the director made sure it was safe and everything was correct. We also had permission to film so we were safe and the college where happy for us to film outside of the school.

How the storyboard came to life offline edit clips

1. 

This is just a few examples of how we followed the storyboard and made sure that each shot worked with the storyboard. It is okay to move away from the story board of the idea comes to mind but we didn't have to do that and we were happy to follow what we had decided on the storyboard. This is where we followed each shot and knew what we needed to do when filming. Here I had the facial expression shown in the storyboard so I would know what kind of facial expression I needed thought each shot and which way I had to be facing/ walking. You can see here we did change the style of the bag but it doesn't really effect the advert. 

2.

This is another example of what we did to make the storyboard come to life, for this we had followed what the storyboard said and make sure we used a POV shot which is the point of view shot. This was a bit hard to film because we have to have my hands free and we needed the videographer filming over me as if it was my view. We made it work and got the shot we needed. We also ran into the issue with putting the wire into my phone because non of us had a phone with that kind of wire socket so we had to improvise it and it seemed to have worked. with some editing we mad that shot work how we wanted it too. 

3.

This was the three shots of me walking from place to place and frame to frame, we made this work but with some editing but you can see how we made sure each shot looked like me walking from one place to another. We got presession to film outside and made sure we didn't run into any legal issues with that. 

These were the shots that we got when filming and theses went really well they were just like how we wanted them to be. The shots weren't perfect because they turned out to be wonky once all put together however, next time we will learn to make everything symmetrical.

Risk assessment

When looking at the risk assessment we made sure that we followed all of the safety measures that were in place to make sure we didn't get into any trouble. We made sure that one person was I on duty to make sure that we didn't run into any issues regarding our safety or someone else's. We looked at very obstacle and made sure we were very safe. Making sure we looked back on this risk assessment sheet to make sure we didn't miss any issues we might run into. If a car went past we would know that we would move everything including ourselves and the equipment to make sure the car wouldn't hurt us and the equipment. If someone came close to where we were filming we would again pack up everything and move out the way or we would make sure the person was not in our way when filming. We would be cautious about the equipment we were using because there could be many risk when using them but we made sure we were carful and considered all the risks.
