Silent Film Status

What is the status of your Silent Film? What was successful? What were some challenges? What did you feel were the biggest flaws of the final product?

I am still not yet finished with my Silent Film. I found that some of our costumes were successful but I don't think they were well thought out. Some challenges we faced as a group were communication and planning. Members of our group did not contribute as much as we had hoped. People flaked out last minute on our project on days that were important. The days we did end up filming turned out to be much harder seeing as we did not plan things out in detail. Finding a location was also difficult. Our first location was the one we were most excited about but we came off as disrespectful to the people at the location and we did not have everything planned out as well. My biggest flaw in this project was contributing my input on how we executed our project. This leaves me with a product that I am not fully proud of.  I also feel like I'm not a very strong actor so that lowers the quality of my group members' products. The continuity of my hair is also a flaw in our film.

History of the PSA

Where did public service announcements begin? What was their main purpose? How have they evolved throughout the decades? The PSA was created when the United States joined WWII drafting propaganda. Tag lines like "Loose lips sink ships" were used to get people to donate and contribute to military operations. Now, a PSA is for getting people to contribute to other causes like anti-drugs, drunk driving, and seat belts.

RECORDING DUAL SYSTEM

What are 3 separate things that the presenter says to keep in mind when setting up dual system audio? Why are each of them important? It is important to turn off all automatic settings on the recorder and do it all manual because it usually ends up creating more problems than it solves. Set the sample rate to 48 khz for video. Figure out if you need phantom power or plugin power. Use a slate or clap to mark where you have to sync up the audio and video.
