Tutorial Four and Five: Video Production Sessions

Task Four (Blog Posting): Provide a brief summary of the services offered by YouTube. Information can be drawn from the week five tutorial hand out:

YouTube is a video sharing website where users can upload, view and share video clips.

A video hosting service allows individuals to upload video clips to an Internet website. The video host will then store the video on its server, and show the individual different types of code to allow others to view this video. The website, mainly used as the video hosting website, is usually called the video sharing website.

Task Five (Blog Posting): Provide a brief account (1-2 paragraphs) on how the use of planning (storyboarding and scripting) aided your groups short film:

Storyboarding was initially useful for helping us to get our ideas together to form some sort of story. It made us think about what kind of shots we wanted to use, effects, and timing. We didn’t really refer back to it much when we were shooting but the video we ended up with was pretty much in line with the plan.

The scripting (writing to go along with the pictures) was also helpful as it provided cues to our actor on how she should behave, and covered the specifics of her demeanour. It provided that extra bit of detail that I could not provide with my drawing (not a strongpoint for me).
