Hard Drive problems

There was a couple of struggles we faced in the editing of footage in our news package.Several of our most  important filler shots were saved on one hard drive and the actual edited news prackage file was saved on another.

Luckily we figured out a way to move the files over from one drive to another by finding the original seperate clips, then putting it on a usb to transfer it into the drive so we could access it in our actual adobe premiere news project file.

Importing Voice Over to News Package

This lesson me and jasmine have been importing the voice over to our news package. Due to Shahram not being in for medical reasons me. Along side the voice over we are also importing the press red sign I created a while back. We are also inserting some filler shots into our news package to cover up areas which are a bit wobbly.

Recording with Group

Last week me, Shahram and Jasmine went out to london bridge to record our news package footage. We had to record specific areas for our news package which were areas such as interviewing smokers which we have successfully accomplished along with other parts of areas we had to record.

Filming: Professional Interview

We decided on having 2 interviews in our news package. One person with a personal account, so in this case a parent, then a professional perspective.

The professional perspective for out news package
comes from a NHS representative.

Shahram and I went to visit the actor for this section. I set up the camera at a mid shot angle and following the rule of three, I directed the actor to face away from and to ignore the camera ad if talking directly to a person.

The mise en scene for this scene had the actor wearing professional formal clothing in a GP/office space.

I then filmed a shot to put before the actual reply to the news topic. I postitioned the camera to film a two-person scene with Shahram posing as a medical patient talking to a doctor, to put over the introductory voice over and to portray what the 'doctor's' profession involves, which is talking/advising young people.

Variety of short shots.

Hi there, long time no post! I just thought I'd update you on our filming status. Over the winter break I filmed several shots outdoors of young people smoking, cigarette packets and lighters and cigarettes.

Also I did more filming for the title sequence as the group decided we needed more shots to fill up another one of the picadilly circus screens.

We're still in the process of doing our main footage and more variety of filler shots. So I'll keep you more up to date once I've got more to show you.

Over and out

Voice Over

Today me and Shahram completed the voice over, we recorded each section of the script separately in order to make it easier for the final piece which we will edit. We used garageband to record our voice over and also used a microphone in order to get the highest quality of recording.

Location Recce

We will be visiting various hot spots within central london to film our various pieces for our news package. 

As a group we will go out to central london in order to complete the footage for our news package. We will be meeting on Saturday 2nd Febuary 2013 and go out to specific area which we will record within central london. There are going to be some health and safety issues such as the camera being at risk of getting stolen, also the weather ruining the camera and equipment we are using. Also when we are recording we may obstruct the way of paths which will cause people to have to walk past us causing a health and safety risk. 

Akin, Shahram and Jasmine are all going to go out as a group and complete our recording for our news package CLN. We will all be taking turns in recording some parts of the news package which will give us all a chance to participate fully in the completion of our news package. The equipment that we will use will consist of a tripod, video camera and the clip mic.
