Construction Post 9: My technical learning curve

What I learnt:

      Production:
       -How to film a successful continuity sequence.
       -How to set up professional lighting kits (and the safety precautions that must be taken).
       -How to prevent lighting issues.
       -How to organise a large cast.

      Post-production:
       -How to cut up shots into different sections.
       -How to grade shots.
       -How to use LiveType to construct titles.
       -How to use sound and video fades and transition effects.
      -How to use the ghosting effect.



My Strengths:

-Cutting continuity sequences together.
-Filming shots (framing and movement)
-Creating titles on LiveType.
-Adding key frames and visual effects to shots
-Controlling the actors.

Reflections
There was a clear progression in my technical ability between the preliminary task and the Main Task and this was clearly reflected in the differences in quality of our projects. I also realised that the best way to learn is by making mistakes and then resolving them, therefore, I'm glad we had the opportunity to do a test shoot, main shoot and back up shoot as it allowed us to improve on our project every shoot.
