Visual Codes The set for Mock the Week is based around Panels and the 'Stage'.The  panellists are often comedies and they have a selection of  'Scenes we'd like to see' and 'If this is the answer what is the question'.During the programme they talk about important topics that have happened in the news and they 'mock' and make these topics funny but they do also tell us the true information.When the panellists go to the stage they perform stand-up comedy sketches about a given topic. The colours used are red,blue and green.The blue and green represent the world as we see in their logo which is the world and the production name on above it in white outlined in red.The blue and green connotation represents the world and the fact that Mock the week talk about global issues and news. The hair and makeup are most likely done by the panellists themselves but the men will probably get some makeup put on to make sure their faces aren't shinn...

Representation questions 1) How does the film challenge or reinforce stereotypes? The film reinforces stereotypes by showing that most scientists are friends with each other. This is reinforced when Sheldon facetimes Stephen Hawkins. We also see this because most of the Characters in the Big Bang Theory who are friends, and some enemies, are scientists. Not including Penny and Stuart. This is mainly because they all share the same common interest in science and comic books. We also have the stereotype of Scientists being Nerds because Sheldon, Leonard, Howard and Raj all have hobbies including Gaming, Technology and Comics. These are all stereotypically associated with nerds. They explore the stereotype of types of women in the Big Bang Theory as they have Penny who isn’t a scientist but as the ‘hot blonde’ who seems to date tons of men and care about her appearance, whereas Amy who is a scientist is not intereste...

When filming a self shooting interview it's important to make the interviewee comfortable with the interviewer and the camera.By doing this an interviewer should set the camera up besides them,over their shoulder,our keeping within the 180 degree rule.The 180 degree rule is  when the camera is situated in a specific way to make sure that the audience doesn't get confused during the interview.If this rule is broken the interviewee and interviewer will seem to have switched places when intact they haven't and this will confuse the audience. Another tip is to keep eye contact with the interviewer whilst your interviewing them.This makes it more relaxed and comfortable especially if you don't constantly look down at your questions as it will allow the interview to flow easily. Between each question it is best to leave a slight gap as the interviewee may suddenly think of something that they want to mention.It's also important to not interrupt your interviewer as it...

White balance  basically means  colour balance . It is a function which gives the camera a reference to "true white" it tells the camera what the colour white looks like, so the camera will record it correctly. Since white light is the sum of all other colours, the camera will then display all colours correctly.Wehn filming at different times the light often changes,we may not see it but the cameras defiantly pick it up and so when filming if you manually correct the white balance it will allow all the video clips to be seen in similar lighting and  the sunlight won't effect it. You should perform this procedure at the beginning of every shoot, and every time the lighting conditions change. IYou will need a camera with a manual white-balance function. There should be a "white balance" button or switch on your camera. If your camera has a filter wheel (or if you use add-on filters), make sure you are using the correct filter for the  lighting cond...
