We had a camera workshop in order to try and carry out some experimental camera angles. We had access to several pieces of equipment, such as the fig rig, dolley track and the jib. I wanted to try some camera angles that I think I may be able to incorporate into my sonnet adaptation. These angles were a dutch angle, and even a jib shot which is also panning round to follow the actor.
I was able to make a short film that tells a very short version of the sonnet that I am planning on adapting. It begins with a person being revealed from the darkness, and looming over a grave. He is thinking about his life and the life of the deceased, with flashes to symbolise loneliness. He then walks off and disappears.
I have also had the idea to try and get shots, whether it be film or pictures, of my actor standing at the war memorial while the camera goes round it, doing a 360 degree turn. I may have to ditch this idea though, as this would prove very difficult with just one camera. If I did go through with it, the images would be very jerky, so would probably not look good enough to be put in the film.
