Filming a short sequence.

Storyboard sequences.

We were given a preliminary storyboard, in which we had to prepare to film it.
This is the storyboard:
 
This was filmed using the Sony NX5 that we were taught to use a few weeks ago. This is still in the editing process in which we are using Final Cut Pro. We learnt some important terminology and here are a few:
 
Rush Bin: This is the folder in which everything that is filmed is placed.
 
Log Bin: This is the folder in which the useful clips are put.
 
We also learnt a lot of shortcuts on the keyboard, for example:
 
'i' that is where you want the shot to start, and 'o' means that is where you want the clip to end. You find where you want to start and finish using the arrow keys to control the scrubber.
 
You can then drag the picture on the screen to the timeline and can cut by pressing 'b' for blade and dragging it somewhere else using 'a' for arrow.
 
We also learnt how to check in and out of the particular system we use at Hurtwood. This taught us how to access the server and our work from any computer.
 
Hopefully this short film will be posted soon.
