This week my partner and I went to Savannas Neighborhood Park to film the news scene for our opening. We brought our equipment like our phones and a tripod. We also had a script. We picked this place because it looks like a news report setting and the lighting is good.
We set up the shots to look like a news broadcast. We took a lot of shots of each other saying the lines from the script. We said each line times so we can choose the best one later. Some shots had just good sound and others were more emphasized with our voice.
We tried ways of filming like taking medium shots and close ups. This makes the scene more interesting to watch. After we looked at the clips we picked the ones that looked natural and clear. This taught us that filming takes time and we have to work. We saw what we need to do like speaking louder and acting more confident.
I think this was a good start for our production. Now we have footage to work with and make better during editing or we can make it look even better by also improving the video too. My partner and I are happy with what we did at Savannas Neighborhood Park. Overall, filming the news scene was a great step for us.
Here is a reference article that helped us understand when to use the right lighting: https://www.dandolighting.com/blogs/battery-blog/the-importance-of-lighting-in-film-production?srsltid=AfmBOorTBEOKT5tDhhGNTsvV4240WifymEnEa20MB6CqMjIyEvGkA Q6C
