Monday, Methods





   Looking at my Story boards I started to build my sets and getting my props ready however I forgot to do one main things, chose how I would film the adverts, as it is a project unlike I have done before and has new challenges for me to over come, one of which is how I would film the advert

    I came up with two different ways of doing this. The first was to have the camera on a tripod and move the Jelly's by taking a picture before moving it to the next picture and get a flip book effects, the second was to have a camera and again to take pictures but this time to move the camera instead of the jelly's as I haven't got all my products I couldn't have the setting which I will have for the real filming so I kept the setting simple placing the Jelly's on plain white paper 
    
    Instead of using my story board I made up little sketches to start of with so that I wouldn't have the complications that would happen with the real advert as i was only aiming to chose what method of filming to use I will show you the effect that I achieved through my first chose of filming- 


There are around 40 photo's for this shot, showing the Jelly's asleep and then getting attached and squeezed to death by a giant green Snake, I then added the photos to Imovie and edited them so that they flowed as if in a real advert, however It isn't as clear as I hope my finally project will be-


The second way of filming I changed the setting as i realised that i was impossible to keep the same sketch as the one with the snake, so instead i had one Jelly shoot another while using the method of tracking the camera and keeping the jelly's still the effect which was achieved worked the same as with the green snake -  

After looking over both finished Sketches I came to the conclusion that I should use a mixture of both methods to get the best possible out come that I could
