Today's lesson we decided to start question 1! We were really interested in using the green screen as it was an new addition to our media department and thought it could work well for the question. Our main idea for this was to involve our influences on the green screen whilst speaking about them/having an discussion in front directly talking to the camera. For this we all took turns speaking of a different influence as we found when we all stood in front of the green screen there wasn't enough room for the viewer to witness what clip or influence was being shown behind.
Hannah- spoke about the influence of 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo' and its structure we incorporated within our trailer.
Steph- Paranormal Activity 2 with the spiritual focus of the film.
Claire- The Omen and The Orphan with the focus of the children of the film with the use of shots; midshot alongside the use of lighting.
Cindy- The use of costume influenced by 'Don't Look Now' trailer with the red dress and spoke about the titles of the film influenced by 'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'.
We found that the green screen worked well as it looked interesting to watch and was an new way of presenting our evaluation also, taught us a new method learning about the use of the green screen.
We uploaded it to the new version of iMovie in which we had to discover how to place the green screen over the clip. Previously, we had made a time line of clips appropriate to what we wanted to speak about and eventually this worked well.
A problem we encountered was splitting the green screen clip as once we filmed we decided to continue filming as thought we could edit our mistakes by iMovie. To do this we had to import the clips into the project library click on the blue editing button once selecting the clip and click clip trimmer. For this we had to select the parts we wanted before dragging into the library again and if wanted a different part of the same clip we had to reimport that clip again.
