For this assignment we are asked to create and film a new ident for BBC2. These are short adverts shown in-between programs. The reason we are creating a video shoot is to extend your visual skills, composition, use of light, colour, lenses and perspectives etc... We can create your BBC 2 ident either on location or in studio, the number 2 can be created any way we wish. at the end of this assessment we must have a BBC 2 ident lasting to 10-30 seconds, a blog website containing research, ideas, thoughts and final evaluation. And a completed Studio Lighting Plan of your final studio shoot.
The The deadline of this project is 6 weeks from now.
We are working in groups of 5/6, each person has a different role such as '
- camera man (danie jones) - DV video camera operator
- lighting (Tisha Hawkins-me) - Studio lighting or daylight & use of light meter
- props stylist(sammy Bebbington) - To source props and adjust styling during shoot.
- set designer(MollyBurton) - Make use of college departments and varied resources.
- &Editor -Jordon Axford) - Concentrate on editing software.
however we will all work together and help each-other.
The aims of this assignment is:
- To develop understanding of studio / location techniques for moving imagery media productions.
- To develop design methods, techniques, and technologies.
- To produce experimental studio / day light lighting techniques.
- To develop skills when filming with a DV digital video camera and tripod.
- To develop skills when editing with video software and audio techniques.
Throughout this we are encouraged to be as creative as possible.
- we must feature a number 2 within our ident.
- it must last for 10-30-seconds and be saved as a .Mov file. Playable in quicktime.
- The sound must be ambient in nature and appropriate for your theme, also no voiceover or inappropriate music.
For research in this project we must research TV idents, TV, Film, adverts using youtube.
Materials are High quality props, the number 2 will need to be finished to a high standard in whatever type of material you see fit. we have to use the template for number 2 to create our version. we also need to use making tape, bulldog clips, G-clamps, string cotton, scissors, craft knife, paintbrushes, etc.
IDEAS
1 idea we came up with was using skittles, we were thinking we could use a large amount of skittles and empty them all into the tray then we would drop the number 2 in the tray of skittles so the skittles would fly out. Then we would edit it so it would be slow motion so the skittles would be flying out the tray slowly.
another idea we came up with is a 'human number two' For this we would have about 20 people to create the number two. So it would be more interesting they would walk into there number two, they would stand still for about 10 seconds, we would be filming it from above so it would be a birds eye view of it.
our third one we are going to have a plastic number two full of water then recording the red food colour dropping into the water in slow motion, we want it to make nice patterns in the water so we wouldn't drop alot in it at first so it would be moving slowly in the water.
Hi
ReplyDeleteCan you expand you ideas please as a group and individually as its very important that you research and develop this project as far as you can and produce various versions within your group.
Look at the criteria and the labelling of your blogs as well as this will guide you when you are producing your work to achieve high grades.

Hi
ReplyDeleteAlso you need to speed up as we are at week 3 next week and ideas, test shots and prep and planning have to be happening much quicker.
