Our use of equipment for Marmalady evaluation

 These were significant equipment we used to create our A2 production, since our AS production we have gained a greater knowledge of how to use equipment effectively.We invested money from our budget on buying a green screen sheet that was able to fit 3 people in front of it.We chose to buy a green screen specifically for the making of our film poster as a green screen enables us to edit the back ground easily.We wanted to achieve a conventional film poster look for our genre after doing a lot of research we found that the majority of film posters have their backgrounds edited with green screens so that they can place their main characters in front of what ever they want. We chose to have Lola the protagonist as the main image with a light yellow back ground the color yellow connoting happiness, comedy and summer.Because of our green screen we were enabled to edit our background to how we wanted it we added to the background picture of marmalade jars and a sketched sun picture, we played with the colors of orange and turquoise.
We also invested our money into buying a LED light that we could attach to our camera, this was very useful as it allowed us to control the lighting of the scenes as we could increase and decrease the levels of lighting on the LED light on the side of it.Therefore it allowed us to film our scenes even in when it was dark outside.Our A2 production definitely progressed from our AS production in the aspect of lighting as we did not have any equipment to help us control lighting in our AS production therefore we only presented our audience with dim bedroom lighting. Also the shots in the attic were sometimes unclear due to lack of lighting used. Another equipment that we used in our A2 production that we did not use in our AS production was an additional camera , me and Eleanor decided to use both mine and her camera as this would allow us to get various kinds of shots at the same time it was also very convenient with timing as we could both film scenes separately when we were not together.This was a weakness in our AS production as we could only film with one camera so that we both had to take turns using it and we couldn't do any filming separately.
