Use the key terms at the end once to match the photo

5-7 mins to complete

3-5 mins to peer assess

Peer Assess the starter using a GREEN PEN

Make corrections if needed

(get a peer assessment stamp)

Watch a sample video (preliminary) and use the mark sheet to assess

You must assess each area on the chart Controlled use of the camera Attention to framing Variety of shot distances 180 Degree rule Match on action

Read through the description on the back of each technique/skill to know what you are looking for

Will watch twice

Assess the preliminary video using the mark scheme

Compare it against the modeled example…

Areas of Assessment

LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 LEVEL 4 WWW EBI/TARGETS TO IMPROVE

4aControlled use of the camera

4C-excellent, almost never a shaky camera as they use a tripod-meaning is not comprised as the filming is smooth and steady

-some shaky movement in the panning; make more smooth

4bAttention to framing

3A 4C

-mostly good framing to show necessary shot or object/person to make meaning clear-some use of rule of thirds

-inconsistent head space-sometimes framing is poor around body parts; don’t cut off

Areas of Assessment

LEVEL 1 LEVEL 2 LEVEL 3 LEVEL 4 WWW EBI/TARGETS TO IMPROVE

4cVariety of shot distances

3C

-appropriate use of establishing shot, mid shots and close up shots offering some variety

-include more clear long shots, extreme close up shot, two shot, reverse shots and over the shoulder shot-not enough reverse shots of character b

180Degree rule 4C

-applies the 180 degree rule correctly which means meaning clear to audience-does not breach the rule (go over line)-character a is on right and b on left

-not enough reverse shots on character b; could have had more to have more range in 180 degrees

Match on action

4B

-uses a variety of different shots for 1 action-the actions match well (distance of door and sitting in the chair)

-some of the timing could be improved (slightly longer) in some areas of the action to make it a little bit more smooth/continuous

You will now work in your groups to film a short scene.

You will follow a basic script

Vera (character 1) Joanna (character 2)

Consider what you learned in starter and introduction

Choose a target

All must – be able to use a few of the techniques and skills with basic application (level 2)

Most should – be able to use some of the techniques and skills with proficient application (level 3)

Some could - be able to use most of the techniques and skills with excellent application (level 4)

Begin filming and use the checklist to ensure you are using all the techniques!

Controlled use of the camera

Attention to framing

Variety of shot distances

180 Degree rule

Match on action

Use the self assessment chart to grade your performance

Even though you worked in a group, you can mark yourself as an individual

How did you do?

Did you meet your target?

Thumb up Met target or exceeded target Thumb side Met some of targets Thumb down Did not meet any targets

Set: Thur Feb 23 Due: Mon/Tues Feb 28
