In this assiment we each had particular roles which included Billy and Myles being the actors in the scene with Billy being character A and Myles being character B. Myself and Louise directed this scence and all of us edited it together.
Firstly we draw up a storyboard and planned what we were going to include in our scene. The scene we thought of doing was a Brokeback Mountain style theme where character A would walk through the corridor then through the door into the classroom where character B would be waiting on a desk. Then character A would say "I Miss You I Love You!" then character B would say as a reply "I Cant Do This Any More!" while he got up from the desk and walked towards the door. Character B would stop to a hault when character A holds him saying "Please Dont Go!" then character B would walk out the door leaving character A to turn and lean on the door then slither downwards to create emphasis on the dismial.
In the scence we used a short section of on screen diegetic sound, which was the dialouge and the door shutting, and a wide range of camera shots. Me and Loiuse used a long shot at the start of the scence were Billy walks through the corridor to set where the scence is taking place. Then we used a mid shots on character A's (Billy) face and on character B's (Myles) face when they are talking to each other and when Myles walks away and out of the room. This is so the audience can see the body language and facial expressions of both the charaters when they are interacting with each other. We used a Point of View shot on both Billy looking at Myles and Myles looking at Billy when they are talking to each other. This is so we as the audince can see it through there perspective. Finally we used a close up shot of when Billy is leaning on the door window. This is also to get his emotions across through his facial expressions.
Then as a group we edited the scene using Final Cut Express the following week. We put opening credits at the start of the preliminary test and a fading effect at the end to create emphasis on Myles fading out of Billy' life.
However there were a few mistakes in our preliminary test. When on the camera I zoomed in on Billy and Myles face the focus went blurry. To correct this I would have to move the camera close to the actors so I wouldnt have to zoom in or use a different camera with a good zoom quality. Also the editing is a bit jumpy and jittery in parts where we havent edited correctly.
