Learning Aims:
Develop creativity
Introduce advanced portfolio
Skills preparation for advanced portfolio
Across the 5 weeks there will be workshops on:
Lip-syncing,
Composition and Framing,
Editing,
Narrative Structure.
You will be working in small groups and so attendance is important.
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Task 1; Skills review
Why? Links to A2 exam – important that skills develop over time – can only identify
what needs to develop through acknowledgement of processes learnt and processes
which need improvement.
Workshop 1: Composition and Framing
Why?
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Composition and Framing is
really important in order to
create a visually exciting
music video
A video is really a series of still images – so can you take a good
photograph?!!!
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Symmetry
Depending upon the scene – symmetry can be something to go for – or to avoid
completely. A symmetrical shot with strong composition and a good point of interest
can lead to a striking image – but without the strong point of interest it can be a
little predictable. Experiment with both in the one shoot to see which
works best.
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
The depth of field that you select when taking an image will drastically impact the
composition of an image. It can isolate a subject from its background and foreground
(when using a shallow depth of field) or it can put the same subject in context by
revealing its surroundings with a larger depth of field.
Depth of field
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Framing - Most of us use ‘frames’ to display our images when we hang
them on walls for viewing – however ‘framing’ can be used within the
composition of a shot to help you highlight your main point of interest in
the image and and/or to put it in context to give the image ‘depth’.
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
A frame serves numerous purposes:
• It gives the image depth and helps to give the perception to viewers of it that they’re looking at
something that is more than 2 dimensions.
• Use correctly, framing can draw the eye of the viewer of an interest to a particular part of the
scene.
• Framing can bring a sense of organization or containment to an image.
• Framing can add context to a shot.
• Frames can take many forms – from an overhanging tree, a window, a bridge, arch or even part of
another person etc. When using this technique – look for a frame that has a similar shape to the
main subject that you’re framing.
• Frames can also be in the foreground or background of images (although more often than not they’re
in the foreground).
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Perspective
The perspective that a shot is taken from is another element that can have a big
impact upon an image. Shooting from up high and looking down on a subject or shooting
from below looking up on the same subject drastically impact not only the ‘look of
the image, emphasizing different points of interest, angles, textures, shapes
etc – but it also impacts the ‘story’ of an image.
AS to A2 Workshops
Objective: Students develop skills required for A2 Media Productions
Space
• There can be a fine line between filling your frame with your subject (and creating
a nice sense of intimacy and connection) and also giving your subject space to
breathe.
• Either technique can be effective – so experiment with moving in close and personal
and moving out to capture a subject in its context.
• Sometimes it is what you leave out of an image that makes it special!
•The colours in an image and how they are arranged can make or break a shot.
•Bright colours can add vibrancy, energy and interest – however in the wrong
position they can also distract viewers of an image away from focal points.
•Colours also greatly impact ‘mood’. Blues and Greens can have a calming
soothing impact, Reds and Yellows can convey vibrancy and energy etc.
•Think about using contrasting colours in your shot – blue and purple, orange and
blue or green and red.
Colour
The Composition Challenge
You will each be given your own theme!
You must use the composition tips to take
4 photographs keeping to your theme
You will present your final images to the
class
Workshop 1:
The Composition Challenge
• What did you find easy/difficult?
• What have you learnt? What new skills can
you take away with you and apply to the A2
advanced portfolio?
