Main project Ideas

Seeing as i joined a new group at a late stage, the guys in the group already had ideas. They told me and chelsea the idea(s) that they came up with. I found these ideas interesting and liked them.
The main idea which I was told about was doing a gangster type film and the style will be a bit like Sin city.

the colour of it will be black, white and red which stands out from other things because it will only be used for certain objects e.g the womans dress.

Camera shots/angles

We have learned different camera shots/angles.

ES- Establishing shot- ELS - Exteme Long Shot
An ES is a camara shot that is shot extremily far from the character. This shot shows the character in an area to show where they are and what they are doing(e.g walking down a street in a city).

LS- Long Shot
A LS is a shot that is shot far away, but not as far as a ES.This shows them in relation to their surroundings.

MLS-Medium Long Shot
This shot shows more details of the chracter than the previous shots. Also, the mise-en-scene is shown quite clearer.

MS-Medium Shot
This shot shows a character from between round about the knees- waist area to just above the head. This shot is sometimes called 'mid-shot' or 'three-quater shot'. MS is similer to MLS

MCU-Medium Close Up
The MCU is from the mid-chest to just above the head. This shot shows more detail of the character (what they look like etc). It can also contain two people talking.

CU-Close Up
CU is even more detailed than the shots before. It shows the head and shoulders of the character.

ECU-Extreme close up
This shot shows a small part of the face or an object. This can also show extreme emotion if the camera is extreme close up on the eyes.
BEV-Birds Eye view
A Birds Eye view is a camera shot which is filmed from directly above (overhead ) the scene.

There are lots more which are used within the filming industry
