Media. Day 1

I was given the task to read a segment of the book, "The Cat in The Hat" by Dr. Seuss, into a microphone and then editing the audio from the microphone on Adobe Audition. I then added background music to liven up the segment of audio and to add a mood specifically for the story. I did this by following the following steps below.

1. On the file you have chosen, highlight the parts that you don't want/ need.

2. Delete the highlighted parts by clicking delete and then this part should be gone.

3. Once step 2 has been performed then you will need to begin layering the audio files. In order to do this, you need to click (FILE - NEW MULTI TRACK SESSION).

4. Call the session an appropriate name. For example the name of the audiobook. In my case, this would be The Cat in The Hat audiobook.

5. Select the location of the folder that you wish to store all the audio files in.

6. Change the sample rate to 44100

7. Change the bit depth to 16

8. You need to make sure that all the audio files that you want to use are imported. In order to do this, you need to click (FILE - IMPORT - FILE) then choose the files that you would like to use and they should appear.

9. If the audio file has any background audio then you might want to overlap this. In order to do this just drop the audio file onto the line where you would like it.

LISTEN TO THE AUDIO AS YOU GO AND ALSO SAVE AS YOU GO.

Media. Day 2

Tasks that  I had to complete:

  1. Brainstorm ideas
  2. Create a pitch for the production
  3. Pitch the production
  4. Select the best idea and develop further
  5. Plan the production
  6. Conduct rehearsal and block the production
  7. Create titles and graphics
  8. Conduct rehearsal of filming and editing slots
  9. Film and live edit the production
  10. Review the production

I was given the task of being an actor in a short advert for the Bic 4  colour pen which was pitched by fellow students. My role was to sit at a desk and faint when my corresponding colour came up. This was easier said than done though because there are so many different roles in order to create such a small clip of video.

Roles:

  • Actors
  • Lighting Technician
  • Sound Technician
  • Director
  • Camera Operators
  • Floor Manager
  • Assistant Director
  • AutoCue (script) Operator
  • Live Editor

The Anatomy & How the Camera Works

The Anatomy Of The Camera: https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/338473728219110890/ The viewfinder - This is what the photographer looks through to create the image and to see what they are shooting in front of the camera. Film speed dial - This allows the photographer to change how fast the film goes past the mirror which would allow for either a longer or shorter exposure time. Shutter release - A button on the camera or anything that can be used to trigger the shutter release. Film advance lever - This allows the photographer to pull the film from within the canister, out and onto the spool. Exposure counter - This shows how many exposures have been taken and how many are left on the roll of film. Mirror - Allows the photographer to looks through the lens to see what is being captured. Pentaprism - Allows the photographer to look through the lens through a viewfinder with everything the correct way up and around. Shutter speed ring - This is the amount ...

Adam Fuss

Source: http://www.cheimread.com/artists/adam-fuss "I see the photogram as being much more truthful and more honest because it's just recording light. There is no manipulation of that light, in the way that a lens manipulates light." - Adam Fuss Adam Fuss was born in 1961 in London but he grew up mainly in Australia. In 1980 Fuss started working as a photographic apprentice at Ogilvy & Mather Agency. He later made a move to New York, this is where he first started to record and document the natural environment around him through photography using a pinhole camera. This later guided Adam to experiment with alternative photographic processes, which later on led to him abandoning using the camera completely. Fuss's photographic works are unique for their contemporary reinterpretation of the earliest techniques of photography, specifically the photograms and camera-less techniques. Fuss believes that to make photographic techniques work, they should be person...
