: Short Film - Transcript 1 - Induction-Team-Focus-Ideas

Initially as a group, we were introduced to some equipment. Tracks, dollies, tripods, "red head" lighting, wiring and its hazards, basic camera set up control and operation.
We were also shown the pleasure of a highly expensive high speed camera and and its associated software. Producing some hilarious yet visually stunning footage.
- I feel i would love to write a short screen or motion to exercise the capability of the camera as its an opportunity that may not ever arise in the future.

2 Min Short film. - 4 week team Project.

This two minute film will be planned, developed, shot edited and finalised by all three of us. - Ken

As this is a team exercise, Ken and I worked together on the last project so we thought it would be apt to take advantage of some certainty and team up again, along with Will. We all work cohesively and methodically, with the same attitude towards the pruposed project which can only work to our advantage.

After a brainstorm - these were the ideas we developed, although many of them didn't go beyond this stage.

Progression"
Focusing on a man's obsession with keeping up to date with the latest technology.

"Slayer"
A dramatic fight of equally skilled opponents as they fight over an online game

"One Liner"
A man who tells the same joke to a various groups of people. The man is a manic depressive.

"Stalker"
A Man is followed by another. The stalker is just trying to return a wallet. Twist...

- Ken

After further discussion, we opted for the stalker idea as it was more easily malleable to the brief. Focusing more on the exploration of technical aspects of film, filming and camera use, shot composition and adaption to location and adapting to the environment.
