The other day I received an email from Gareth Munden (a tutor whose specialism is cinematography) with a brief comment on the animatic I had uploaded onto my Facebook page. He stated “there are a lot of shots from behind” and suggested that we should take a second look at the entire initial shot. Gareth wasn’t working with us this term and therefore wasn’t at our disposal. I then branched out to a contact and good friend of mine who graduated from Ravensbourne last year, and now works as a camera man for various companies. Kev spent an evening with me to help determine the main issues with our cameras and furthermore rectify. It seemed to be a slow process in some cases due to his in-experience with 3D software and the communication of visual ideas became a slight barrier. Nevertheless the issues were clear and from the knowledge picked up from tutors and a book I value highly (called Shot-by-Shot) Jono and myself spent an evening finalising cameras the following day. Kev reviewed the camera adjustments later on and confirmed for us that they we’re much better and created a much more dramatic and brisk tone to run sequence.
During the camera adjustments Jono and I felt it would be helpful to get an idea of some lighting as this would enable us to film the set in accordance to this (an idea deriving from some information on the live action processes that Kev took me through). Some idea renders are shown below.
