Setting up appropriate equipment

Within the video it is evident that appropriate equipment is set up with see this by how still the camera is meaning it is sat upon a tripod, therefore is appropriate as it keeps the camera still and gives a professional standard to the final product.

This is also evident through the use of camera lenses the appropriate lenses are used giving a wide view of the studio and other filmed scenes, shot composition is appropriate arranged to show the viewer suitable shots of the intended area. This gives a professional looking  standard to the final product.

Following script/storyboard

Scripts and storyboards were followed as evident through our blogger posts we have prepared pre-production documentation so that when filming we can clearly and effectively film the content. This is clear through the variety of shot types that match the content shown on the storyboard and script. 

It is also evident planning has been followed. As there has been spontaneous differences from the planning due to unanticipated problems. For example It was not anticipated that the floor would be as visible so in the rushes the prizes are significantly closer to the camera than planned.

It is also evident planning has been followed since we did not worry about what audio was recorded since we would be adding audio over the top anyway. 

Following safe working practices

Safe working practices have been followed, this is evident through the use of a tripod as seen by how still the camera is. It is also evident as we have written risk assessment and other planning documentation to anticipate any safety hazards. We can also see this by how we are never shown in shot taking the time to avoid it and safely get to and operate the camera. There were also no cables in the surrounding area so they were no risk of tripping hazards.

For scenes where we did not use a tripod (the canted panning shot). We made sure that the path we would be moving in was safe to move using the correct stance so that we would not cause injury to ourselves or others.   

Following production processes

We followed to the production processes by acting upon the storyboards and other pre-production on site. It is also evident that the team followed the pre-production process by how errors and unanticipated positioning were changed on site if they were not suitable or were not as anticipated. 

Fit for purpose

The work process above meant that our content created during these rushes is suitable for a magazine show. In our rushes we have set up appropriate equipment suitable staging, suitable camera equipment and others. 

It is also fit for purpose since this is a magazine show is about video games, and the genre is clear by how we have gaming related prizes (controller thumb pads) and have used the studio set which is looks like a typical magazine show set related to gaming.

The prizes relate directly to the purpose of the show being a gaming related show allowing the user directly interact with the show achieving its purpose as a magazine show following typical styles and conventions. 
  
It is also fit for purpose as we use suitable equipment to create professional looking footage of the highest quality making the footage used fit for purpose

This is evident through shot composition too and how the final product has produced a professional standard due to the appropriate equipment used creating a piece that suitable fits the styles and conventions of a magazine show, we have followed these conventions through are pre-existing knowledge of magazines shows and story boarding our ideas. 

It is also evident that meaning is enhanced through the rushes, this is because we used planning to set up the equipment to clearly show the audience the prizes. 

This created a suitable image which creates a suitable and presentable tone to the show, this is also re-enforced through the shots used, using panning and zooms which are all shot types that would be traditional used when showcasing items. Therefore we have followed the conventions of magazines shows and making it fit for purpose.

Setting up appropriate equipment

This is also evident through the use of camera lenses the appropriate lenses are used giving a wide view of the studio and other filmed scenes, shot composition is appropriate arranged to show the viewer suitable shots giving a professional looking  standard to the final product

We also see this through use of lighting which is appropriately used, lighting is in the correct places as seen through each camera shot, making it easily visible to the audience. 

Following script/storyboard

Scripts were followed as evident through our blogger posts and through the audio, as the team are directing the actors and team members and improving upon errors that were not covered or anticipated in the pre-production created and posted on our bloggers. For example when the actors are playing the dancing game they are directed by the team members when they are not in the correct places etc.

Following safe working practices

Reece's and other pre-production have been prepared to follow safe working practices. This is evident both in pre-production and in rushes. The team and actors are all aware of hazards and move accordingly to this hazards. For example team members walk around avoiding any cables placed on the floor and take precautions not to fall or damage equipment.

Following production processes

We followed to the production processes by acting upon the storyboards and other pre-production on site. It is also evident that the team followed the pre-production process by how errors and unanticipated positioning were changed on site if they were not suitable or were not as anticipated. 

Fit for purpose

The work process above meant that our content created during these rushes is suitable for a magazine show. In our rushes we have set up appropriate equipment using lighting, suitable staging, suitable camera equipment and others. 

It is also fit for purpose since this is a magazine show about video games, and the genre is clear by how we have set up a studio using various gaming related imagery and the content shown in the rushes; being a dancing video game relates directly to the purpose of this show showing the audience video game content. It is also evident that this is a video game magazine show through the presenters and their dialogue, they introduces the audience to this show saying that this is about video games, featuring the latest gaming news etc. This was also planned making sure the microphones were in the correct positions to capture the sound.

This is evident through shot composition too and how the final product has produced a professional standard due to the appropriate equipment used creating a piece that suitable fits the styles and conventions of a magazine show, we have followed these conventions through are pre-existing knowledge of magazines shows and story-boarding our ideas. Segmenting them and setting up a studio, two presenters, having an introduction, showing in-studio content, showing outdoor content and other conventions and styles found in magazine shows. Therefore our product is fit for purpose.

It is also evident that meaning is enhanced through the rushes, this is because we used planning to set up the equipment to clearly show the audience the studio and presenters. This created a brighter image which creates a upbeat and happy tone to the show, this is also re-enforced through the presenters and their happy tone of voice, this is commonly found in other magazine shows as it is an effective way of drawing in your audience, therefore we have followed the conventions of magazines shows and making it fit for purpose.
