Production Diary - Tuesday 4th August 2009

This is the start of my production diary for my University studies in Introduction to Cinematography.and Editing Sound and Image Last week we familiarized ourselves with video camera settings e.g.

Manual Exposure (apeture)
Neutral Density Filter
White Balance
Color Bar
Manual/Auto Focus
Setting color, brightness and contrast for camera monitor
and a heap of other settings and tripod setting up.

This week we learned about three-point lighting(key, fill, back light) Uni is great because the lights are provided for us to play with. Mmmm-more toys.

I borrowed 1 book on cinematography and 2 books on lighting. The subjects I'm doing for this semester are really heavy and a lot of details to learn and master. But besides these issues it is really cool. I am learning so much and studying intensely.

More to come
