OCR A Level Media Studies AS Preliminary Exercise

The “Prelimary Exersice” from the new 2008 OCR specification.

Here we’ve taken a simple sequence matching the brief, included a variety of shot sizes, angles and most importantly we’ve made it a continuous sequence with dialogue at the end. The second version is just to illustrate that it doesn’t need to be dry and boring, and it might be a good opportunity to experiment with genre since your main piece of coursework will total 50% of your grade.Honestly though, we just fancied messing around with the cameras for an hour or two. One of the versions are quite long and don’t need to be, good editing would speed things up without losing sense of continuity.

The Links to the videos I shall post in my next blog.
