Visit 2 - to the BBC

On the Thursday 13th November our Creative Media class went to visit the BBC for the second time. This time when we arrived we were introduced to a man called Rob. Rob is a new member of 21cc studios and has many skills that help him accomplish his job. He first began by showing us a few short films that he had cut in a certain way. We then went onto the pacific detail of action shots and camera angles. To make your film as best as possible you need to know what and where you are going to film. This is why you make a 'shot list.' For example we had to show the audience that we were at the BBC, so we took shots of the BBC logo and building. This helped by setting the scene. So after completing our shot list we had to get into our groups and go and get the shots that we needed, which included interviewing the employees of the BBC about their jobs. We had the questions ready so we didn't get stuck whilst in the middle of an interview. We had a group discussion at the beggining and decided to start by filming Kitty (the interviewer) walking into the BBC, using different camera angles that we learned about. It was very hard to find someone to interview as erveyone was very busy or late for a meeting! But as Kitty is very good with people we ended up with about 6 interviews. This included:
The head of BBC iplayer
The head of BBC History
A security Guard
A women working for Children In Need
And two men on the elevator!
