Week 3 – 8/10/2012
This week Joe McKinney has been
teaching us about the studio including how to set it up and what commands to
use within it. I have continued on from
our work from last week as floor manager.
I feel this role suits my strengths in that I do not have a problem with
speaking to people and am anything but shy.
I enjoy knowing exactly what is going on and being able to inform the
other members of the studio what it is they need to be doing and when. This makes me look forward to the week in
which I will get a chance to be a director.
In our camera and lighting class
this week I had a go at rigging up the lights around the studio correctly and
safely. I enjoyed this class as I did
not previously know just how important setting up lights correctly can be to
setting up a scene.
Movie Watch: I got a few Alfred Hitchcock movies that I
have always meant to watch but never got around to it such as The Birds, Rear
Window and Dial M for Murder. I
particularly enjoyed Rear Window and felt the idea of a man watching a few
windows is inspiring in that from a relatively simple idea has spawned many a
copy cat movie over the years. If the
idea is shot and executed right then it really does not matter how simple the
idea is.
