Camera Scavenger Hunt:
Take turns working on the following shots:
1. Use a zoom in and a zoom out to make a creative shot.
2. Use a tilt up and a tilt down to make a creative shot.
3. Use a pan left or a pan right to make a creative shot.
4. Use focus to make a creative shot.
5. Shoot something upside down or sideways.
6. Make a smooth dolly in a creative way.
7. Walk while shooting and make it as smooth as possible.
8. Make a silhouette shot in front of a light source.
9. Experiment with the microphone on the front of the camera. How far can it pick up sound?
10. Hold a shot for at least ten seconds and keep it as still as possible.
11. Perform several interviews: Make sure everyone knows how to set up for an interview. What seven items must you bring to an interview? How far away should the person be? What should the background look like? What do you need to know about lighting and shooting into a light source? What is the first thing the camera operator must do to set up their shot? Where should the reporter stand? How far away should the microphone be? What should you consider as you are getting sound bytes?
Final Assignment: Compose the following scene based on this scenario:
“Just one more step and it would have all been different”
You need to figure out where to shoot this scene. In addition, what need to be acted? What needs to be said on camera? How should the shots be put together to tell a story? What is the message you are trying to convey?
