Techinal Approaches for the Drama and Production Documentations

The technical approaches we plan to take towards this film will be shown through camera work and post- production. We aim to use intricate transitions via intense lens flares, over exposure sound design and using composition to make an actor seem still and the scene, time and location change. We will also plan to execute advance shots including tracking shots via the operation of a slider rig to create smooth tracking shots. Additionally we plan to film in 50fps (frames per second) to allow us to slow the footage to half speed and keep a smooth shot instead of a jumpy one.

In the terms of post-production, we will use the aspect ratio 1.85:1. This will make the matte suitable to fill a widescreen ratio screen. so when the film is played on a 16:9 screen, black lines will appear which is known as Letterbox ratio and makes the film seem more cinematic as most films are projected to a widescreen in the cinema. Initially we planned to set the aspect ratio as anamorphic, which is a super wide ratio of 2.35:1 but we decided to go wider with a 1.85:1 ratio as it shows more of the mise-en-scene with a wider yet tighter shot. In addition to this we will focus on colour correction and colour grading to correct the exposure of the footage and give a general tone via the semiotics of colouring within film.
