Week 4 third evaluation of the Carousel

TV & Film, Make a live advertisement, advertising a BIC multicolours pen and how amazing it is.

 Research 

We started in groups of 5 brainstorming ideas of how we would go about expressing how good the pen was. We had several different ideas but we ended up agreeing on the idea that two people would end up having a sword fight with a regular pen and a BIC pen.

Each group then voted for other group's ideas, the one with the most votes is chosen to be advertised.

Skills

Everyone was given different jobs roles, so the advert could be done a lot quicker; I was selected to do sound gathering. This involved me collecting sounds off of a separate computer.

Recording all sound internally on a computer using Adobe audition.

Transferring the sounds and music recorded to set computers.

Finally queuing those sounds ready for the advert, and playing them accordingly to the script.

Processes
  • Gathering sounds
  • Transferring sounds
  • Playing them at the correct time.
Method

When collecting the sound we used a separate computer to the ones in the set. We used Adobe Audition to record the sounds, Adobe Audition is a piece of software that allows the computer to record all the sounds be played through its stereo. The sound effects were captured off a website called "freesounds.org" and the music/soundtrack was collected off YouTube.

All of the sounds were put into a file and then put onto a memory stick, this is then plugged into the set computers. We used two set computers so it would be easier to queue sounds in time for the live recording.

The Graham Norton Show Graham Norton joined by Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt, Charlize Theron, and Seth McFarlane. The show is located in front of a live audience, and has several celebrities at once on the show. A typical show consisted of one big celebrity name, a comedian sitting in the aforementioned comedy chair and a well-known musical personality who would all be introduced after the monologue.

The shows primary colour associated with the show is red this is due to the show being aired on BBC One which known for its red colour scheme. The dress code associated is very smart. To contrast this the host Graham Norton has a very relaxed and takes a very jovial approach when conversing with his guests. Generally the show sticks to very basic shots ...

Creating an interview

When creating an interview there is a number of steps that have to be followed, for example the 180 degree rule this makes sure that when recording an interview. If the camera suddenly switches to the other side of the line of vision then it will give the impression that the people inside the shot have have switched sides. When filming someone it is important that you tell them what you will be talking to them about so that when they are asked prior to this it will be less nerve racking. As well as this is it is very important when they are answering the questions to keep eye contact with them so they feel more comfortable and will encourage them to go into more detail on subject matter. An interview could be done in a way that the camera is focused constantly on the interviewee, they will answer all the questions, then after they leave the interviewer will then put the camera on them and ask all the questions to no body.   To ensure you get the best shot it is importa...

Both wix and weebly share the same quality of creating websites for the customer. Both websites have similar home pages, Weebly has a rather bland expression  front page whereas Wix has a more visually pleasing. Both the websites have a button on the front page that will take them straight to the login page that will allow you to either create an account or login to your current account. Once you have logged in to Wix you will then be given the option to create a web page with a number of dfferent templates.
