Trip to the University of Kent:
On Wednesday 14th January our media class visited the University of Kent.
- This involved a tour around the film, arts and drama building, where we were privileged enough to view the recording studios, the computers suites and the green screen room!
- We were very luck because we had an exclusive viewing of one of the students film, which will be shown on BBC 3 Fresh; which is a programme that allows film students the opportunity to have their films aired on national television.
- We also had a lecture on main character types in films and a study into anime films.
- We had a session on screen play and shooting scripts, where we watched scenes from films and got to view the actual shooting script. After, we were set a task to team up with a partner and write our own shooting script then feed back to our friends, the lecturer and the film students.
- Finally, we were put into small groups and were given half an hour to create a film. We were also helped by two film students who showed us the quiet areas where we could film. Our brief was to include: a mysterious stranger, blinding light, a lost soul and a key to a lock. Because of the short time we had to film, we couldn't re-film anything or delete any clips, meaning it all had to flow continuously when we presented it to everyone at the end.
The trip was really insightful and I can take some skills I learnt from filming and creating a screen play, to put towards our final coursework opening.
