FILMING- Psychology Teacher Interview. #3

Today the interview, thankfully went well. The mise-en-scene looked much better, as we placed just one 'prob' in the background to anchor his relevance to the interview so it wasn't over distracting. We filmed him in a medium closeup, just below his shoulders, so that the audience would be able to focus on what he was saying much more.

FILMING- Psychology Teacher Interview.

Today we decided to conduct an interview with one of our schools Psychology teachers, Mr De.
However once we captured the interview we realised that the positioning and framing of the shot was not correct.





The image above is a still from the interview. The aspects we are going to be changing is the mise-en-scene. The framing will be more compacts so that the background will not distract form the interviewee.

FILMING- Harry Potter Fan Interview.

Setting up the Interview.

Today was our first day of filming. We had asked Naomi, the Harry Potter fan if she would be able to spare one lunch time to film her in school. She agreed, and said she would bring in some 'prop's including a cape and wand. As this was our first attempt, Adam and I got the framing wrong, and we noticed that the mise-en-scene was a bit off when we came to capture it on Premire Pro.
