In today’s
lesson we all completed a shot log from the footage that we had already filmed.
The first shot log that I had completed was the girl’s scene set in the sixth
form common room where it shows Jemma meeting up with her friends. Her friends
then begin to make nasty comments about her, and then they run off leaving
Jemma on her own.
A shot log is essential because it shows the production crews what shots we will be using, and why we will be using those shots. This shot log then helps the production crew to come up with the edit decision list which shows which shots go where in the final production, and also what transitions will be used to go from shot to shot.
This shot log shows what scene I am going to be writing about, what take the piece of footage is, how long the shot goes on for, what the piece of footage shows, the quality of the video on a scale of 1-3, if it is usable or not, and finally notes about why we will or will not be using the shot. The majority of the footage that we had filmed for the girl’s scene was up to a professional standard and therefore we will be including it in our final production. Other shots that we had filmed were not as professional looking, and in some of the shots you wasn’t able to hear what the actors were saying. Also we filmed some shots three times and therefore we would only be using one of the shots that had the best camera work and the audio was clear. In some of the shots the actors also forget their lines, or weren’t standing in the right places when the scene had ended and therefore we had to film these scenes again. As a production group we all agreed that we would not have to go back and film any scenes. This is because the scenes that we are going to be using can be adjusted when it comes to the editing stage, and also if we went back and filmed another day the noise levels in the common room may be different, and there wouldn’t be the same students sitting in the background. The lighting may also be different and this would affect the continuity of each scene. After completing the shot log we will then, as a production group come up with the edit decision list.
