carousel week 4-Photography

evidence

secondary and primary research

My Secondary evidence was that we learnt about the camera and how it works as a Digital,Single Lens,Reflex camera.This wasn't new to me and I knew a bit of it before but it was nice to have it refreshed.We were taught about the shutter speed and how speeding it up would capture a sharp image of someone moving,as well as putting the speed on slower the moving image would become more blurred as the speed of the shutter was delayed.

Another Secondary evidence was we were also taught about the aperture of the camera. Like the shutter speed we were first taught how it works,with learning how the light that is let through the camera effects the focus on the foreground or background.I really enjoyed this as i hadn't learnt about this before.

The primary evidence that we had was we were allowed to go out around the college and take photos whilst changing the shutter speed and the aperture.This was great as we got to experiment the different settings and see the outcome straight away.I really enjoyed this as i already love photography and learning about some new skills really helped and let me create  some great photos as seen above in the evidence.

processes and methods

One of the processes that we had was we adjust the shutter speed and the aperture.
First we had to make sure we had our camera on the right setting.we had to twist the mode dial in order to take certain shutter speed and aperture photos.With the main command dial we were able to change the shutter speed from 15/1s to 1000/1s which would give a different effect on the images the higher the number the fastened sharper the photo is taken whereas the lower number would make an image more blurred as the delay of the shutter isn't as fast.In some cases this can make a really clever effect.Unlike the aperture the lower the number the less light is let through making the foreground clear and the background blurry and with more light coming through on a higher number the whole image is in focus.


skills learnt

The skills i have learnt this week are how to change the aperture and the shutter speed on a camera and how the different settings can change an image drastically.



tools used

The tools i have used is a Nikon D3000 DSLR.Along with some leaves on the ground to create the images.

Audience

An audience is a Group of Mass or Niche people who consume any media text such as Radio and music listeners,television viewers and web traffic on websites. An audience is important as they are the viewers and the clients of the media text and they can give the money to break-even and create profit.New technology now makes it easier for people to access the media they want and when they want,this increase in technology also means less people buy physical copies of films or the news as they can easily access it from the smartphones or smart Tv. there are two main types of audiences the mass audience and niche audience.The mass audience are a large group of people all attracted to the same thing for a large variety of reasons whereas a niche audience is based around specific attractions to the media text such as a a specific genre like gardening or cricket. An audience can also be split into two main systems for categorising,Psychographics and Demographics,A psychographic is definin...

Film Genre

The Hunted film that we are going to be producing is going to be a Horror film.Other films that have the same genre as ours is IT,The Ring,and Happy Death Day. Horror films all have many similarities to create the scary,and tense emotions to appeal to the audience watching.If it isn't scary then it won't be popular. In a horror film you always have a protagonist.In IT this is the clown,Pennywise,he is a murderer which is also very similar to our interactive film as we are going to be having a murderer as the protagonist,however instead of them being a clown we are having them as unknown as the film will be in first person from the murderers point of view. As well as a protagonist we also have the antagonist,they're not the hero in the film as they don't survive,which is controversial because most protagonist is the hero and they mostly always survive. It's also very different because there are three main characters all with their own separate story linking i...

Foley's Sound Editing Review

Today we were given the task to edit our Foley's sound recordings, that we filmed a couple of weeks ago, into the muted shower scene from Pyscho. We had used a Cue sheet when recording to know which sounds were to be made and with what objects out of the ones given. This was so we could keep track on what was recorded and what wasn’t. The cue sheet made the task a lot easier as we made a list before starting to record so we knew what sounds we were going to recreate and with what objects. Foley’s sound is the recreation of everyday sounds that you would usually hear in a film. These can range from something simple like footsteps to something much bigger such as a thunderstorm. Foley’s sound is most commonly used to enhance the audio in a video; also, if the audio doesn’t come out well it is most often used then. Hollywood is well-known in using Foley’s sound a lot whilst creating their audio especially waves and the crashing sea. When we used Foley sounds we recreated doors ...
