Title: Beatitudes Project


1
Beatitudes Project
  • Guidelines for Video

2
Introduction
  • Maximum time limit 10 minutes
  • Crime? soap? sitcom? comedy? drama?documentary?
  • specific situations that demonstrate the genre?
  • plot outline

3
Audience
  • Know your target audience...discuss this class
    and its personalities in your group.
  • Play to the middle ground (or lowest common
    denominator) of the class.

4
Specifics
  • what is the mood/atmosphere that you are trying
    to create?
  • How is this mood/atmosphere demonstrated through
    acting and dialogue, camera shots, editing,
    costume, background setting, lighting, color,
    music, special effects...

5
Making Movies
  • tips and tricks

6
  • secure tripod (if using one)... steady means
    interest.
  • Battery on camera is charged
  • Remove lens cap (doh!)
  • video tape (miniDV) is recordable
  • Focus mode is auto in normal instances
  • white balance set to auto

7
  • If interviewing people, beware of background
    noise which makes it hard to hear.
  • Use an off-camera mic, if able.
  • Camera operator needs to wear earphones and
    report to the director when the ambient noise is
    too distracting.

8
  • Dont shoot your characters with the sun behind
    the talent unless for effect. Subjects should be
    placed against a darker background (if not using
    external lighting) if not available use
    Backlight on your camera.
  • Check that light is not directly in subjects
    eyes
  • Check that the light is not creating shadows in
    the shot.

9
Post Production
  • Keep in mind the 10 minute limit
  • edit with coherence in mind (KNOW your
    audience... choose the least common denominator
    in the class and play to him/her)
  • Watch out that music does not become the subject.
