PSA-Rape Awareness

In class we got into groups to put a storyboard together for a Public Service Announcement on Rape Awareness. When putting the storyboard together we realised that many things are important in this proess such as the length of the shot. We thought we'd give a rough time but realised it is important to give an exact time. Also it is a good idea to make a storyboard because otherwise your making it up as you go along. It is important to write on the storyboard what shot you are going to use, and who is going to be in it so when it comes to filming you know exactly what you are doing. When filming we realised that the ideas from the stroyboard may change in the actual filming process as ideas that seemed good might not work when filming.
I enjoyed the editing process. This was a chance to get creative with the piece of film you have and really improve it just by uising a few effects. For example at one point our actor was laughing and it could be clearly heard on film, this did not go with the film as it was about rape and the victim wouldnt exactly be laughing, however we managed to keep the shot but silence it, as the shot wasnt close up of the actor you couldnt see her laughing so by silencing it we managed to keep the shot.
I enjoyed this piece of work, i learnt alot from it such as how to use iMovie well which wa useful as when it comes to my coursework i wont be such a novice with it.
