Recorded Sequence 1

Unfortunately i was unable to insert the clip onto blogger so i can only talk about it and the video will have to be added in later.



We have tried to use every shot given to us in this short clip such as: long shot, medium shot, close up, extreme close up, pan, tilt, following shot, over the shoulder and more. we have used these to show that we can film them correctly for use in future projects.I think most of them have been used effectively however some did not work as effectively. the shots that were filmed with the tripod however when we filmed moving shots they were not as stable as we would have liked the framing, i think, was done correctly.
The improvements i would make are : trying to keep the shots more stable and trying to get good footage for the shot, as in several different takes of one shot style and then picking the best, instead of just trying to do all the shots one after the other.

Genre

A Genre is the category of a media production be it a movie, a book or a TV series. Genres can include: Horrors, Comedies, Science fiction and many more. Every genre has certain components that make it easier to define the Genre for example Westerns are set in the west and include cowboys, indians, stetsons and horses if you see these in a movie it is more than likely a western as opposed to a science fiction film that would be set in the future or in a Galaxy far far away and would include space or time travel alongside robots or aliens.
