    Camera Techniques
    Extreme wide shot (establishing shot)
    Used at the start of a scene to show the geometry so the audience understands where
    everything is
    Wide shot
    Wide and clear view of everything that’s going on
    Mid shot
    More up close and personal (from the waist to the head of the subject)
    Medium close up
    Used to draw the viewer's attention to something
    Close up
    Used to point out something or someone that's important (usually a face)
    Extreme close up
    Used to convey emotions (usually eyes)
    High angle
    Used to make the subject feel small, vulnerable and powerless
    Low angle (hero angle)
    Used to make the subject feel large and powerful
    Over the shoulder
    Used when people are talking
    180° rule (if you switch persons it should be on the same side)
    Lens compression
    When you zoom in you compress the space
    Pan shot
    Used to reveal things that weren’t previously in frame (camera turns in the same spot)
    Tilt shot
    Pan shot but vertical :)
    Crab shot
    When you follow someone while walking (horizontally)
    Tracking shot
    Moving backward or forward tracking a subject
    Focus pull
    Changing the focal point to decide what the audience looks at.
    Editing
    Jump cut
    Quick / abrupt cut ( usually used in horror movies )
    Match on action
    Continuing a movement from the same positions in different shots
    Slow paced editing
    Low amount of shots, creating a calm feeling
    Fast speed editing
    High amount of shots, creating a fast paced and intense feeling
    Colour grading
    Manipulate colours to look a certain way or give a certain feel
    Transitions
    Makes the transitions between shots smoother
    Sound
    Shotgun mics
    Only pick-up sound from the front [ Good quality ]
    Condenser mics
    Used for voice overs, music recording, etc, you have to be close to it [ Great quality ]
    Lavalier mics
    Usually used in interviews because they're small [ Average quality ]
    Lighting
    High Key lighting
    A lot of light hitting the subject
    Three-point lighting
    ( 3 lights in the scene )
    Key light
    Brightest light on subject
    Fill light
    Less bright light filling in the rest of the subject
    Edge / Rim light
    Separates subject from background
    Low Key lighting
    A lot of contrast in the scene because of less lighting
    Reflector
    Bounces light
    Gels
    Different gels can be used to make the light softer, coloured, etc

      Thank you! Yeah lighting is something that came later for me as well. You can get the big softbox lights I have pretty cheaply but they're better for even lighting. If it's for cinematic stuff like short films those small LED panels I was using are £25 each (the bigger one is about £110) LEDs are really good and easy to control. If you google some cheap LED panel film lights you'll find loads of options. You can't really go wrong but read the reviews and see what people say :)

      Thanks, I'm glad you liked it! If you google some other examples it might make more sense. It's not so much that the distance or difference in size of the characters changes. It's more about how the background and the foreground are brought together and seem closer than the wide angle version. Hopefully you'll find something that helps :)

    Hi,
    Nice video 😊.
    I have a question though. What is the actual process of filmmaking. I mean what comes first, the script writing, or something else. Here is what i think, but please correct me.
    1. The person writes the topic and forms a story.
    2. Then he writes detailed dialogues and script according to the story.
    3. Then he plans the shots.
    4. Then the actors act and the director directs.
    5. And finally while editing, nice edits are done and sounds are added.
    Is it correct or am i missing anything? Can you suggest avideo that includes all this?
    Nice video 📷 btw 😊

    • @AlfieVaughan
      @AlfieVaughan  7 месяцев назад +1

      Thanks! The process depends a lot on who is making the film and what level it's at. For example, a small college film would only be a few major steps whereas a big film is hundreds.
      Generally it's idea, script, story board, location planning, casting, costume design, general pre-production all come first. Then shooting and sometimes additional pickups. Then offline editing, offline, VFX, sound, colour...
      A very long process.

  • @cutwir3317
    @cutwir3317 3 года назад

    What’s missing in this video is Screen direction and neutral shot .
    1) Screen direction is the direction that actors or objects appear to be moving on the screen from the point of view of the camera or audience. Just knowing shots isn’t enough you need direction within a z,y or x axis. Are actors moving left to right of the frame so in the next frame they appear on the left etc…
    2) Neutral shots helps reset the actors direction. In this frame no one is going left or right but remain static and symmetrical. Using an insert then cut so the next frame changes the actors direction.
    Also missing is 180 degree rule and 30 degree camera
