Directing

In this session we began with a short introduction to the zoom microphone, which I had already worked with before. However in this session we learnt more about the actual settings and the professional handling of it. Also, how to connect the boom to the zoom and how this is great to keep track of sound levels.

Shortly after, the class was divided into two groups, and given the same script. Each group had a character to look into and decide how they would direct it from the characters perspective.

Once finished both group came together and discussed their methods and a little storyboard was made on the white board of how the piece would work combined.

Following that, both groups became one sole group, and all were given a role for the this mini productions to give us a look at what a real set was like. Once again I was doing sound, but this was i wanted to get better experience as I am also doing sound on my groups final project. We also learnt the right terminology to use on set and what to say when. This was such a good lesson, and to finally be able to work with a big group was just amazing.
