Multi-Camera Evaluation


During our first multi-camera production we decided to do a paranormal multi-camera. We came to the idea by brainstorming ideas. We were talking about implementing ways to scare the audience while keeping in theme with the main show. We decided to go with the whole paranormal idea. We built up on the idea more and the initial idea of scaring the audience was pushed out the way to prioritize making an actual production.

Analyze the Codes and Conventions of Radio Drama

Narrative codes (Story)
Technical (SFX, voice-over, music)
Verbal (Dialogue)

Meaning (What’s going on)
Effect (How do you want the audience to feel about it)


Star Wars

Technical:
Announcer - Writer Credits, Director
Theme Tune (Title Music)
Sound Bridge (foreboding music - villains)
SFX:

  • Dialogue over intercoms
  • Low rumbling sound - engines
  • Swooping Engines
  • Electronic Beeping/Alarms
  • Explosions
Background Sound = ambience/wildtracks (hides the cuts)
Dialogue - Character names, volume to show proximity, don't overlap dialogue


  • Technology
  • Space
  • Alien Creatures
  • Futuristic

Accuracy
  • Must be accurate and Factual
  • Documentary maker loses creditability
  • Viewer loses faith in documentary production team
  • Research
  • Contact/Interview People (Primary)
  • Internet/Books/Magazines etc (Secondary)
  • Could be sued (e.g. libel/slander)

Balance/Bias/Impartiality

Balance:
Presenting both sides of the argument
Bias:
Taking only one side of the argument
(e.g. Loose Change
- Biased against US Government
- No positive angle on US Government
- No interviews)
Impartiality:
Not taking any side of the argument

Speaking on behalf of someone else
