Our Production Roles (Introducing our Group)

       

  

This is Anita. She'll be in charge of being the main editor for our short film extract as she likes to explore and learn more about editing tools and how to cut scenes in between takes and so on. Asmaa and I would still co-operate with the editing but Anita will take over the most as we can keep on track on our storyboard; making sure we're following the main scenes correctly using the exact camera angle and techniques. Also, she makes sure that all of her props and costumes are ready and organise well ready for the scenes that will be acting out next and she makes sure that we get in contact with the actors/actresses as well so they'll know what's being going on and updating them on what scenes we're shooting after next.

 

This is Geneva, which is me. My main role for our short film is being the Producer. My job is to make sure the scenes goes on smoothly as I supervise the scenes, actors as well as the staff crew members (the extra people who comes in and help with the production) to work well together in order for the shooting to run along well and on track and time. This is the most important role as I feel like all the responsibilities is pressuring me since I haven't got any experience being a producer for a short film before. 

Even though it's a challenge, I would still do my best and work together as a team with my team members and staff crew to produce and create a horrifying and thriller 5 minute film. Also, I'm in charge of knowing how to use a DSLR camera as none of my team have ever used one before or not knowing what ISO is, or shutter speed, aperture, white balance and so on. Since I'm taking Photography, I'm most familiar when it comes to DSLR cameras and knowing what each element and button a DSLR camera has. For example, when you're filming at daylight around 1pm- it's best to set the ISO lower as there's more exposure to the sun at this time around the day.

This is Asmaa, our final team member. She's in charge of being the Director for our short film extract as she and I work together as we discuss which of the cuts of the scenes that was acted out is the best and its her job to direct and communicate with the actors/actresses to advice them on how to act a particular scene being represented. Also, she's in charge of being the one holding and working with the DSLR camera when we shoot our short film because she has more confidence in knowing what camera angles and techniques to shoot next on the top of her head. Even though we do take turns when it comes to shooting a particular scene; Asmaa has some leadership skills that leads us to work well together and listen to what we want to say.
