Project  2.1: Shooting Practise

Role: Lighting crew

Location: Filming Classroom

Project Overview

In this practical exercise, our team collaborated to complete the filming of the task segments assigned by the teacher, with the filming location set in the classroom. I primarily served as the lighting technician, responsible for on-site lighting setup and adjustments, and actively assisted the director and cinematographer throughout the filming process, maintaining close communication and coordination with them. This practical experience not only deepened my understanding of how to achieve the desired visual effects through technical means but also highlighted the importance of teamwork in executing the storyboard plan.

REFLECTIONS

This shooting mission was a very good experience, and I learned a lot of interesting things. At the same time, this mission taught me the key role of color in guiding the mood and quality of the audience's reading experience.Different tones can evoke very different feelings in the audience, which can affect their interpretation and attitude towards the content.
