  1. Announcements

  2. Grabbing the Audience • Writing must be clear and concise. • Do not use words the narrator or the character will stumble over. • Example – James’s Stadium. • Use words your audience will understand. • Exceptions to the rule: Documentaries, Sci-Fi and nature channels. • But even then these exceptions simplify things. • KIS

  3. Basic Elements of Production • Know what equipment you will work with so that you can better prepare your script. • Be familiar with the studio • Lenses and shots. • Video and Sound FX • Format radio show or film is produced in. (Tape or digitized format).

  4. Production… • When writing for TV and Film – should your shots include INT (interior) or EXT (exterior) shots? • Should (CGs) graphic elements be used?

  5. Camera Movement • Plays a role in grabbing the audience’s attention. • Distance between the audience and the subject • Amount of the subject the audience sees. • Audience position in relation to the subject. • Angle which viewer sees the subject. • These camera angles, help create and establish scenes and a character.

  6. Terms to know • Doll in and Dolly Out • Zoom in and Zoom Out • CU (close up) • ECU (extreme close up) • Tilt up and Tilt down • Pan Right and Pan left – used to follow a character or direct the audiences attention. • Follow right or follow left. • Boom Shoot: Enables the camera to boom up or down from it’s basic position – crane.

  7. Lenses to know… • Zoom • Narrow/telephoto lens: Tends to compress space and place background out of focus. • Wide Angle lens – tend to open up space in frame and keep things in focus.

  8. Camera Shots • Long Shots or a WS: to establish setting • Full Shot: Lets you see a subject/object in its entirety. • Medium Shot: Camera picks up a part of the individual/object.

  9. Control Room • Fade In: Bring in the picture from black or blank screen. (Used typically in beginning of films/tv) • Fade out: Take picture out until black. • Dissolve: Used for transitions and to indicate a change of place. • Wipe • Split Screen Shots – good for telephone conversation shots. • Superimposition: Used in commercials frequently on a product. To call attention to something. • Cut: Just switches to next scene without a transition.

  10. Use of Sound • OS: Off screen sound effect. Used in a script for a character or sound heard but not seen. • Narration: Use din both TV and Radio. • VO: Voice Overs – used for narration in both radio and TV. • On mic: The performer speaks from a position right at the microphone and the listener can picture the imagery and setting. • Off mic: The performer is some distance away from the mic, which causes the listener to feel they (the performer) has moved from the central point of action.

  11. Sound… • Fading on: Performer slowly approaches the mic to provide the listener with a central place of action. • Fading off: Performer moves away from mic and away from central orientation point. • Behind obstructions

  12. Goal of Sound FX • To establish setting • Directs audiences attention to motion. • Establishes time: (Clock ticking, birds chirping, crickets.) • Signifies entrances or exits of a character. • Serves as transition. • Creates nonrealistic effects to establish a setting.

  13. Homework Due Tuesday • CAMERA FX: Select an online or television commercial, trailer, PSA, or broadcast piece and explain what camera effects they used to gain the audiences attention. How did that effect bring the piece together? • If you have a link to it include it as well. • (1-2 pages, double-spaced. 12-point font – Times New Roman or Arial or Courier ).
