Project Selection Film

Throughout the first and second quarter we have watched Ferris Buller's Day Off, All The Presidents Men, Newsroom and Blog Samples this has shown numerous examples of film production. These films have shown an example of different camera shots, angles, what kind of camera shots these are and what journalists have to go through to get the information they need for the news story etc. While watching The Newsroom the show was about showing what goes on behind the scenes of the news an how it is prepared. Throughout watching the show it has taught what has to be done to get to talk to people for certain information, how to get a news story together and other things to make the news happen smoothly. The skills I have adapted for making the film would be from my past experiences with TV and news broadcasting. From these past journalism classes I have learned how to edit short films videos and video clips in general through final cut pro. In this class final cut pro is not available to me and i am not familiar with the adobe cut editing. This project would be a good fit for me rather than the magazine and my group we are not camera shy and outgoing in front of it.
