Lighting Setup Week 5 Carousel

Lighting Setup Week 5 Carousel

In the first setup we used the 3 Arri 300W to combine a total output of 900W. The lights have a medium brightness with a very wide or narrow coverage and easy to use but need gloves and sandbags as they get warm.

For the second setup we used the Arri 300W lights again but setup them up differently with a rim light in the left corner, a fill light on the left and the key light which created a very flat 3d profile to the face and body and very minimal shadows. 

 In the 3rd setup we used 3 Redhead 800W to combine a total output of 2400W which are useful for big set productions. The lights are very bright and have a wide to medium coverage and I would say they are not the easiest to use with a difficulty of hard. The lights get incredibly hot, much hotter than the other lights so they need gloves and sandbags to prevent burn to the skin and falling over.



 For the 4th setup we used 3 Dedo 150W to combine a total output of 450W. The lights have a very low brightness which would be useful for a moody dark creepy hour scene with dark shadows and minimal highlights.


The lighting setup lesson taught me about how different angle and brightnesses of lighting can really affect the mood of the scene without you or the audience thinking about it and the colour and temperature can help to portray a certain emotion. Examples of this such as using a blue light gel to create a colder looking scene could show a character's sadness and a warmer red gel could portray a angry emotion in the character.

Editing my website photo

Editing Website Photo First I obviously imported the photo into Adobe Photoshop Lightroom CC 2015 on my laptop, applied the lens corrections and profiles for the lens used, removed chromatic aberration , added a bit of contrast, sharpening, clarity, vibrance, shadows, and blacks. I decreased the highlights, whites and a little bit of vignetting to focus in on the subject being my face. Here is the before and after of the photo I edited.

Task 3 evaluation

From your findings in task 1 and 2, on your blog write a minimum of 500 words and a maximum of 800 words. Write a word comparison/evaluation on how the social media platforms like twitter, instagram, facebook snapchat and youtube are used by audiences and institutions to access and deliver specific information. Use your own examples as well as examples from the film sites that you looked at in task 2. You need to discuss 2. Discuss how a film audience uses social media to access and deliver information about the film they are seeing/ discussing. Discuss how a film company uses social media to access and deliver information about the film they have produced. From Task 1 the information I got was that most people in fact 80% of all that I asked said they used You Tube the most to watch Film Trailers. This helps me a lot because it gives a clear indication as an idea of what platform to advertise the film we are creating the most. I asked people if they used Snapchat, Facebook, Ins...

Creating an Interview

Creating an Interview Make them fell comfortable, listen for a bit longer than you would actually listen normally so the audio is clean when asking the questions. Pick a good location with a good background  Make the interviewee look at the interviewer  Keep the eye contact  Nod at the interviewee to show interest  Keep the 180 degree rule to not confuse the audience The  180 °  rule  is a film guideline that says that two characters in a scene should keep the same left/right relationship to one another. If the camera passes over the line connecting the two subjects, its called crossing the line and it confuses the audience. Frame the subject in the rule of thirds  Leave a small gap at the top of the frame between the head and the edge of frame Use manual focus and a shallow depth of field Have something related to the subject the interviewee is talking about in the background if possible Keep the camera at the same...
