FINAL AD AND CCR
CLASSWORK
This post shows the summary of what we have learned in class in semester 1 term 1. In total, we have learned four main topics such as camera works, sound, miss-en-scene, and editing (which I missed)
Camera Works:
Types of Camera Angles:
1) Low Angle
2) High Angle
3) Close up
4) Extreme Close Up
5) Medium Shot
6) Long Shot
7) Extreme Long Shot
8) POV (Point of View)
9) Cowboy Shot
10) Over-the-shoulder
11) Establishing Shot
12) Dutch Angle
Here is what we did in class when each group was given specific camera angles and had to draw it out on an A5 paper.
Types of Camera Movements:
Fixed | Camera remains static | Calm, peace, normal |
Push in | The camera moves slowly toward the subject | Brings the audience closer, more involved, and more serious. |
Pull out | The camera moves slowly away from the subject | Takes the audience away from the action, leaving a character. Detaching from subject |
Pan | Side to side, the camera is fixed | Reveal information, mirrors the natural head movement of the audience. |
Tilt | Up and down, the camera fixed | Same as the pan, just in a different direction |
Dolly | The camera moves around freely | More immersive, we are moving inside the subject world, we feel part of the action |
Tracking | The camera moves around on tracks | Similar to dolly, but smoother. |
Crane | Reveals the epic size of the setting, and landscape. | |
Handheld | Camera is shakey | Very natural, and immersive. High energy |
Zoom | Zoom | Brings the audience closer to budget. Draws our attention to something. |
Types of Sound:
Sound design is a crucial element in the filming industry as it has the power to create realism for the audience due to it being able to convey a mood on the audience mood and emotion that can truly enhance the viewing experience. From what I have learned there are three main types of sound:
Description | Effect | |
Diegetic sound | Sound that can be heard by the characters within the media text. | Add a sense of realism. Reveal information to characters (and then the audience) |
Non-diegetic sound | Sound that can only be heard by the audience. | Enhance meaning, create an emotional response in the audience |
Trans diegetic sound | Sound that transitions from one to the other. | Creates a link between the audience and the world. More immersive |
Non-diegetic sound is again divided into three types which are the following:
1) Melodic: They often give positive and pleasing connotations as they enhance a positive scene to create positive emotion in the audience.
2) Discordant: Uses harsh and unpleasant connotations to enhance negative scenes. Which creates suspense, tension, and anxiety.
3) Contrapuntal: It has an opposite tone to the on-screen values. It adds deeper meaning to scenes. Insight into the character's thoughts. Maybe they seek pleasure in doing bad things.
Miss-en-scene:
1) Props
2) Set Design
3) Costume
4) Hair
5) Make Up
6) Colour
7) Performance
8) Lighting
9) Blocking
10) Focus
11) Weather
12) Environment
Editing:
Film editing is the process of assembling and cutting film footage to create a finished movie. It's a vital part of the film production process, as it's responsible for giving meaning to the film and helping the audience perceive the story as the director intends. In editing, there are 2 types of takes which are:
1) Long take: Used to build suspense, and extend the feelings (feels slow)
2) Short take/ Quick Cut: Used to increase pase, high energy/excitement
There are two types of editing:
1) Continuity Editing: Straight cut, eyeliner match, Shot/ reverse shot, Cutaway/ insert
2) Non-continuity Editing: Crosscut, flashback, flash forward, jump cut

Statement of intent
Here is my statement of Intent for the tourism ad:
My group mate Kennth Lee did most of the writing and together we crafted some of the ideas. Most of the times, Kenneth Lee crafted some weird ideas into the statement of intent but everyone besides him in the group did not agree with him.
Location Scout & Risk Assesement
Before heading to our location to shoot the tourism ad, we list the locations and risk assessments in which we will likely shoot our film.
Location 1 | |
Location: | Bali Festival Park, Padang Galak |
Events in scene: | We'll be wandering around the site, exploring the rooms and the sight of graffiti on the walls. |
Pros of location: |
|
Cons of location: |
|
Alternatives: | What other locations can you shoot at if there are issues here? Any abandoned buildings we find on the side of the road. |
Risk Assessment | |
Potential hazards: |
|
Evaluate risks: |
|
Control measures: | We'll make sure to wear boots and bring torches with extra batteries, and some money just in case. |
Responsibility: | Kenzo (Me) |
Time frame: | A few days before shooting. |
Other notes: | - |
Reflection: We primarily conducted the risk assessment collaboratively, with Kenneth Lee taking the lead on documenting our findings in the table. I believe that engaging in both risk assessment and location scouting is crucial, as it provides us with valuable insights into the challenges we may encounter before arriving on site. Without this proactive approach, we risk wasting significant time addressing unforeseen issues that could have been anticipated.
