Today, please do the following during period 1:
A. Read, watch, and take notes on the material on Minorities in Film and Camera Advice posted below (Monday and Tuesday's blog entries).
B. Study for your Unit Exam (exam is next week and covers a lot of material)
2nd Period:
A. Get into groups of 1 (working solo) up to 5. (No group will be given credit for more than 5 people in it) and come up with a film idea or treatment. Choose the best idea and treatment from your group to make into a silent film. Each member of a group is responsible for shooting, editing, and creating the intertitles for a silent film. Your silent film should be no longer than 5 minutes in length. It should include intertitles as appropriate, opening credits, and closing credits. You may use music to underscore your film, of course.
Generally jobs that you will need to fill:
1. Director (this person makes sure the film comes together)
2. Cinematographer/Director of Photography (the person shooting the film; decides how to shoot the film photographically)
3. Grip(s) (people to move objects around/carry the camera, props, etc.
4. Gaffer (deals with lighting)
5. Casting director (gets actors for the film or assigns parts)
6. Script Writer (handles the treatment and intertitles)
7. Editor (edits the film)
8. Actors (people to play various parts; these people may be from outside of our class, if deemed necessary or available.)
9. Your credits should give credit to any music you use
10. Please make sure you have credits where you indicate who did what job.
