Roles on set

The Director for our group is going to be Gi therefore they are responsible for showing the actors where they should or should not be and telling them what to do.

The Editors for the shoot are going to be all of us but the person overlooking and taking control if need be is Joy. The editor takes all of the raw footage from the day and edits it to create the opening sequence by cutting out and adding in parts to transform it into the end product.

The Producers for our opening sequence is going to be all three of us therefore responsible for overseeing each other in what we are doing on set, to ensure a productive and efficient environment for us to film in.

The art directors for the shoot are going to be all of us but in separate areas due to me being in charge of location, props and Gi/Joy in charge of costumes, makeup and continuity.

My Main role:

The camera operator for the opening sequence will be me being in charge of the camera. This means I have to make sure that the camera is in focus, the right white balance, the right exposure, the camera is balanced (bubbled) and right zoom before shooting the shot. bringing the shot list and storyboard with me for this is crucial, so then i know exactly what the plan is and what angle/shot i need to prepare for in advance. My role is very important as you need a camera operator to actually shoot the film, from this they need to know the camera inside and out to make sure they can get the best out come of shot. One issue i can see happening on the day is lowering and shortening the tri pod for the the shot as lowering the camera on your own can be a challenge, but with someone supporting the camera from the top should make this a lot easier.
