Paragraph 1: Camera
- What task were you set?
To shoot a video about a bad situation, we came up with something that we called bad grade.Bad grade focused on a character who was the only one to get a bad grade and trying to capture the emotions that that situation brings out.
- What role(s) did you undertake during filming?
I mainly operated the camera, which meant I moved around to wear ever the camera was supposed to be according to the shot list.
- What was the end result?
The finished video isn't the best this is mainly down to the shoots with key items like a master shoot being just simply forgotten and there being some issues with the framing and some continuity errors that could have easily been avoided.
- What did you learn from the filming project?
I learned that master shots can help avoid multiple problems like continuity, as it gives an overlook of the hole set and simple closeups can also help avoid errors as you can cut away when the error occurs.
- What, if anything, did you learn from the DSLR workshop?
The DSLR workshop was mostly a refresher for me but completing the pull focus correctly was very satisfying when done right and I could see how useful it could be as an effect in a video.
- What tasks were you set?
A lighting practice sheet
- What role(s) did you undertake during the lighting task?
I helped set up and move the lights around the room and then whilst shooting i was changing the lights to gain the desired effect we were going for .

Paragraph 2: Lighting
- What tasks were you set?
A lighting practice sheet
- What role(s) did you undertake during the lighting task?
I helped set up and move the lights around the room and then whilst shooting i was changing the lights to gain the desired effect we were going for .
- What was the end result?
The photos we managed to collect during the shoot are very good with each lighting effect having at least one good image for each. The only one that isn't the best is the Cucoloris (cookie) and this is because of one the shape and I think that to get it to look really good it would take some fine tuning on size and complexity of the shape that is used.

- What did you learn from the lighting project?
I learned how to use the studio lights as I haven't delved into that part of film or photography, and playing around with the different gels and finding that some our very faint whilst others our extremely bold.
- What, if anything, did you learn from the lighting workshop (using the lights as a group)?
Basically everything during the lighting workshop was new to me but even after the first little bit it was very simple to understand. One thing that is interesting is changing the brightness and warmth of the light can change the look of an image a lot.
Paragraph 3: Sound
- What tasks were you set?
We were set a task from a script so we could test our audio skills.
- What role(s) did you undertake during the sound recording session?
We all during the audio task tried both handling the boom poll with the directional mic on top also having it connected to a power supply.
- What was the end result?

We collected a few different audio tracks which have some with a wind muffle (dead cat) and one without.
- What did you learn from the sound project?
I learnt how to set up boom mic fully, even though its very simple as the male and female cables can only interact with the opposite cable, this makes it easy to figure out which cable goes into which bit of each device.
