Recently our group took part in a media trip to Brighton and found it a useful and valuable experience in preparing for creating our final music video. Our aim while we were there was to practice shots we planned on doing in our actually video to try see what was the best way to approach them and ultimately what looked good and what didn’t.
As well as general shots there was some key specific camera work we really want to try out, these include:
· 360 degree shot
· Close ups
· Establishing shots
· Panning and tracking
· Camera shots that could be time stretched
· Bird’s Eye view with zooming out
· Low depth of field shots
We also filled a risk assessment sheet to ensure that while we were in a location such as Brighton and when on location reccie that the equipment we were using did not get damaged. I felt this was actually really useful as it made us think about dangers when filming that we had never considered. Many of the points that were discussed about the being cautious in Brighton were applicable to our actually filming as well. Judging the dangers of the sea and water to our camera and ourselves made us reflect on how we were going to film around the lake. Also it made us consider the practicality of filming in a public location and the problems we might face when we do.
