Quiz 3 Program 1

In our studio production class, our group did the program 1 about conservations and how the guests viewed them.  The program itself flowed very smoothly from one person speaking to the next guest speaking. All three guests seemed to connect with each other about the topic and could respond very easy to each question asked.  There were a few things that I noticed that were great during the shoot and some that weren’t.

A few examples of what I thought were excellent during the program. The first were the guests we had for the topic of the day. We had two park rangers and the last guest had great experience in this field of work. This to me was great because everybody had their own view of it, but felt the same about conservations in general. It wasn’t a monotone program, where everybody said the same thing with a twist on it. Everybody contributed their input and made the program great. Another thing I enjoyed was the extra use of a camera. We had our two main cameras, but also another camera for close-ups on each guest. This was a great tool in our arsenal for editing, if we want the picture focused on the guest who is speaking. The last thing that went well was our group in general.  We planned out everything that needed to be done before the day of shooting. Who the guests were? Who is doing what role in the studio? Who the host will be? and so on. The program itself was great and the end project should be a very professional looking program.

Also there are the things that I didn’t like from the program itself, not many though. The main thing that bugged me was that the chairs were on wheels so the guests would be rocking back and forth a good portion of the time. I knew that this would happen because; people will get uncomfortable so they find anyway to feel more at home in this situation. That is something that I will remember for future references either in the studio or when making short films. The topic itself wasn’t something I’m familiar with, so it would be nice to do a program, which I’m more familiar with. I know that in the future this will happen so I will have to make the best of it.  Other than that not much things I didn’t enjoy from doing this program.

This program was a very fun and different from topics that I’m familiar with. I did enjoy doing camera work and also some editing for practice that I will gladly accept anytime I get a chance. This studio production class has been great this semester and I will take all the knowledge from this class for my future career.
