Unit 18: Cinematography

The sound effects that were used in this film were; we changed the audio quality in the scene in the pub. This was to make the audio more clear when the characters are talking to each other. We also added music to the intro and the outro. This is so there is no awkward silences when the intro and outro is being played. We have used different lights in the editing. The lighting is clear throughout so you can see the characters when they are the most important part of the scene. The transitions in the short film are sharp establishing shots. This is so the audience know the location of the characters and so their is no awkward pauses throughout. Also, the editing is non continuity editing.

  For this scene of my short film, the lighting that I used is fluorescent lighting. This is because the indoor location in which I filmed this scene used fluorescent lighting. The lighting also works to manipulate the  characters on the camera because it blacks out the background so the audience are focused on the characters and not by any background props. For this scene of my short film, I used natural lighting. This is because this scene was an outdoor scene. The outdoor natural lighting was perfect to manipulate the camera. This is because the camera settings were changed in order to make the scene look perfect. I did this by making our film 30 fps and making the light exposure consistent so the natural lighting looked the same throughout. For this scene in my short film, the lighting that I used is a tungsten halogen lamp. This was to light up the background. Also the lighting helps understand the scene. This is because it helps see the props which is important in this s...
