This investigation is about my progress so far and skills and information I have gained on the subject of media.
In this course I have leart about vuideo cameras microphones and lighting. Im now more comfortable with using a camera as I have gained more experience with using a video camera as I have gained experiece with holding and recording shots. I have also had problems with the use of a microphone on a video camera as in one off the first video camera investigation I took part in was a videio alphbet which had vary poor sound because the distance of the subject from the microphone and also back ground noise from varies parts off the collage. Later I learnt that the distance between camera and subject must have a distance that works well with the particular microphone and that you must be aware off your surroundings. When using lighting while recording outside the only real sourse of light is the sun so for a good shot you would have to place the camera and the subjects inbest possession to get the best lighting. When using lighting indoors theres a lot more control for indoors you can use three –point lighting which involves a key light,filler and backlight. The key light is placed in front of the subject and is placed near the camera. The filler light is placed on the left side of the subjects face to cast the shadows the backlight Is placed on the right of the subject or subjects and fills in the back ground and gives extra sparkle to the hair unlike the sun with three-point there the abilty off moving and changing the lighting around to get the best shot and gives the ability off manipulating the shot with lighting.
