Roles

Try more than one role – some

people will be better at some

areas than others.

Remember: This is supposed to

be fun!

The Task:Working in small Production Teams, you

will:

Write, Plan and Film a short PTC (Piece

To Camera) of approx 30 seconds in

length. The piece will later be edited

for broadcast. One piece from each school

will be selected for inclusion in the

main show.

The Story:

Choose a topic/story that is relevant to

your school (or community) at this time.

Composition:Also Known as ‘framing’. The four

main shot types:

•Wide Shot

•Medium Shot

•Close-Up

•Extreme Close-Up

Shows entire body and

some of the

surroundings. Often

used at the start of a

program or scene. Lets

the audience know

where the action is

set.

(Sets the scene)

Wide Shot (WS)

Composition/Framing

Includes the upper half of the body, cutting the person off near the waist. Shows more character emotion, or reaction than wide shot.

(A typical shot for interviews or conversations).

Medium Shot (MS)

Composition/Framing

“Head and shoulders” shot.

Provides even more emotion or

reaction than the Medium

shot. When focused on

objects, helps audience see

details that they might

otherwise miss.

Also commonly used for

interviews and conversations.

(Useful for cutaways)

Close Up (CU)

Composition/Framing

Maximum dramatic

effect. Used when

speech or reaction is

very important or very

emotional. (Especially

useful to show items as

a cut-away)

Extreme Close-up (ECU)

Non-Linear Editing

Editing:Cut: The most common transition/edit. Generally used to show the same scene/action from a different angle. It is the replacement of one shot with another.Dissolve: After the cut, this is the most common transition used. It is the simultaneous fading out of one shot, and the fading into the next. Usually used to signal a change in time or location.Fade: A ‘dissolve’ to or from Black (or another colour). Sometimes used to signal the passage time.
