Insta360 Camera Edited Footage

 

In this first edited video, I experimented with different types of zooming throughout the footage using editing. I also experimented with different angles using the editing. I made anchor points throughout the video- and these anchor points were spots in the footage where the zoom or the angle changed. Between two anchor points the footage would slowly transition between one angle and the next without me having to add in the transition myself. If the first angle was very zoomed out from the behind, and the next point was very closeup from the front, the editing software would slowly zoom back in and move so that the camera was pointed towards the front. 

In this second version of the footage I included different anchor points, angles and zooms. I did this to experiment with the different types of zooms and angles to the first version of the footage. I wanted to see which zooms and angles looked the best. I made sure to include different angles to the  the first version, to ensure that I would be able to experiment fully with the different anchor points.

I believe that this way of filming could have its benefits and disadvantages. For example, using the 360 degree footage we could show many different angles and close up shots. We could also film the entire environment at once, such as a whole room. The disadvantages to this type of filming is that it takes a while to have to edit all of the anchor points, and there may be something captured by the 360 camera that was not meant to be captured.

Audience Research

Image
 For this campaign I conducted audience research so that I was certain on who my target audience for this documentary was. This was important as I needed to know who I was making this documentary for- the client- but also who would be watching it- as if the target audience was 26 and above- it would be pointless to create a documentary for an audience under the age of 26. To conduct this research I created a Google Form and sent it out to the people in my class and the members of a group I take part in- and I collated that research into an audience profile- so that it was easier to read the statistics and facts. Once I had collected this research- I collated the information into an audience profile.

Generations Final Cut and Evaluation

Image
 After screening the first cut of my documentary to a small focus group and receiving feedback about what I could change, I began changing those parts of the documentary in editing to finalize the documentary. I shortened the intro of the documentary and changed the fonts of the title screen and credits. I also lowered the volume of the music that was underneath a few of the clips so that it was not too loud. Once I had done this I exported the final cut and uploaded it to YouTube.  I then wrote an evaluation, explaining what I did throughout the project and why. This was so that I could explain my ideas and thoughts throughout the production of this project.

Innovative Technology Research

Different Equipment Phones Over the years of technological advancements- many new ways of filming have been created. We can use our phones to film regular footage- alongside slow motion footage and time lapses. Many present day cameras are unable to film this type of footage without the aid of editing software. Phones were a recent development- especially phones with cameras that could film slow-motion and time lapses. Recently- with newer phones- time lapses and slow motion videos are higher quality- rather than older phones with not much technological capabilities. Many phones now have these capabilities- which makes filming footage easier even if you do not have a camera. Phones recently are much more able to be used as devices to capture footage. Pros and Cons: With phone cameras- there are a lot of things you can accomplish- such as slow motion and time lapse. Some phones have the ability to zoom in quite close to far away objects- and also allow you to change the brightness a...
