Filimg "Its good to talk"

The filimg process

As part of the documentary process, we were given a mini task to prepare us for when we were going to create our final documentary. We were given the task to make a documentary about mobile phones. When beginning the task with my team we allocated different roles for each other Gabrielle Walsh was the camera women Steven Crane was the interviewer this made our task easy and prepared us for when we were going to create our final documentary.

 

 

 

First of all we set up the video recorder on the tripod. We made sure it was securely on the tripod and that it was in the right angle ready to start filming the interview.

 

 

We then made the director eleanor take charge and direct the interviwee in what to say when answering the questions. She also help make sure the camera was in a suitable postion to make the best shot.

 

Gabby our camera women this is her filming Steve answering the questions. She made sure the camera was positioned correctly with Steven Left or right of the frame following the codes and conventions of documentaries with his eye line a third way down the frame.



 

 

This is our interviewee Steve this is him reading a book after the question “what did you use to do before you had a mobile phone “Steve answered that he use to read more so we filmed him reading a book.

 

Gabrielle the camera women makes sure the camera is placed on the tripod correctly and still whilst filming Steven pretending to be on his phone.
