technical skills: lighting, camera, sound

 Audio task

The task was to compare different audio recording setups. For this task we were asked to go through a scene a few times using a different audio recording set up each time this was also done outside.

The equipment we used was a shot gun mic with a boom pole and an audio recorder as one set up. We also used a zoom audio recorder for another set up. We then used a dslr camera for the third setup so that we could compare all these. 

The result for this was that the shot gun and the boom pole set up was the best. This was due to being able to get closer to the person who was speaking. The worst one was the camera which is why you should never rely just on the camera for audio.


Photo task

The task was to take photos using a DSLR and led light panels and to use coloured gels on the lights. this was to experiment with high and lowkey lighting and to experiment with different colour lights.

For this task we used a Canon Dslr and we used Neweer led light panels with and without coloured gels. we done this in w16.

the result of this was that we managed to try all the different lightings. high key is for something that isn't meant to be mysterious where as low key works to make things mysterious. the colour gels showed us that you can make your video/photos look demonic with the red gel for example.
