Pre-Production forMass MediaHow to clearly express your message to multiple audiences in 30 seconds or lessPresented by Shant Joshi
Recap
1. Camera Framing- Where do you capture the MOTION?
2. Mise-en scène- What MOTION, or lack of motion, are you capturing?
3. Editing- How much of the MOTION is seen?
Camera Framing
Framing a shot is to determine how your audience sees the subject in MOTION.
This is made up of 5 major parameters: Camera Distance Centered/Decentered Framing Camera Angle Depth of Field (Perspective Relations) Camera Movement or Mobile Framing
Mise-en-Scène Translates to “placing in the scene” This refers to every thing you see in the frame of an image Perfect authorship or auteurism is to have a purpose for
every single object in frame Includes:
Setting Props Costumes and Make-Up Colours Performance
Editing
“Film is truth at 24 frames a second, and every cut is a lie.” –Jean Luc Godard
“The first cut is always the deepest” –Amnon Buchbinder
We can’t cut from theatre but we can from film. Use your cuts wisely! Make sure that you maintain a rhythm and a sense of
continuous MOTION
Successful Advertising
Expressing a single thematic element that draws in the viewer into understanding what the product represents
Apple: “Think Different” commercial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmwXdGm89Tk This is not a tribute to these great people This is saying that Apple is equal to these great
people A reason to trust Apple as a consumer
