this is where one of the teachers is going to blow a test tube up.
this area of the school could be used for the nerds of the school to meet in and could be a place where the nerds are not being bullied by the other students.
it could be used for students entering the school from this point. And to also show students meeting each other.
This could be used for gatherings of differnet steoro types could group totgetgher and meet here.
This area of the school could be used for use in movement breaks and for watching specific characters coming into the school. For example showing a sixth former coming into the comon room.

This area could be used for general use of people meeting or having a scene showing the school on movement brake.

Pics of the school and scenes for the movie.

This could be used as a establishing shot for the movie to show where the film is to be based. It could also show how busy the school is and what sort of students go there.

Rohan and Jacks first video conversation

Editing our first video

when we started to edit our first video we uploaded it with no troubles then after we had finished editing it and came back later to improve on it we hit a problem that when we tried to load it from my memory stick it wuld not reconise the media on it so we had to reupload it onto the computer and re-edit it, this took up valuable time that we could have been evaulating it.

Making our first video

In media studies Jack and I are making a video of a conversation of two poeople talking to each other. Jack was the main actor and i was filming the sequences.

We had to shoot this twice because the first time we were unable to finish the filming because of time restraints this lead to having to refilm this scence with a different person. Once we had finished filming the conversational part of the scence, we started to film jack coming down the corridor and opening the door to the room where he has a conversation with another 6th former.

When we were filming this we had Difficulties in the continuity of the shots because of where jacks hands were (e.g. he had changed his hand grip), or if a chair had moved from where it origanally was. We also had difficulties with camera movement because it always seemed to jitter around when we were trying to move it. This could be solved with a dolly but those are expencive to buy and use on a temporary basis.

When we were filming there were some easier parts to filming this sequence. For example deciding where to put the camera for that shot because we had so much choice of camera shots we found it easy to finds the right sort of angle and shot. Also finding a location for this location was very simple because there are lots of empty rooms that the school doent use.

we still have to edit this video clip but is a lot more simple than the actual filming of the scene. this should take us about 30 minutes to do.
