    Filmmaking 101: Handout: Recording audio © Nils Osmar 2012, All rights reserved. Instructor: Nils Osmar Email: [email protected] For a full list of classes, visit: www.classesandworkshops.com __________________________________________________________ Movies have two components: video and audio. Movies are primarily a visual medium, but the quality of the audio is extremely important in the perceived quality of the final product. Good audio can save a bad movie. Poor audio can ruin a good one. Sound conveys emotion. Video conveys information. (If you listen to a movie with the sound off, you won’t be emotionally involved in it.) (If you're scared of horror films, try watching them with the sound off; they won't scare you at all.) __________________________________________________________ Key points to remember: • The audio track in a movie is made up of several different components mixed together. The components include: - voices - room tone - sound effects and foley - music • Some audio is recorded in the field (on location) on the day of filming. Some is recorded later on in studio. Then it's treated and mixed in studio. • If your goal is to record high quality audio, all of these components need to be of high quality: - your microphone - your microphone holder - the cable connecting it to the recording device - the camcorder or other recording device the microphone is hooked up to. • The connections between the components have to be secure. Audio is only as strong as its weakest link. (A great microphone won't sound good if its connection to the camera has a problem.) The better your movie's soundtrack, the less your audience will be consciously aware of it.

The project was conducted by a partnership of Universal Studios Florida and Valencia Community College. The course combined hands-on classroom instruction with participation in the production of a feature-length film. Curriculum development involved seminars with working professionals in the five subject areas, using the Developing a Curriculum (DACUM) process. This curriculum guide for the 15-week course outlines the course and provides information on film production careers. It is organized in three parts. Part 1 includes brief job summaries ofmany technical positions within the film industry.

  • Production Roles
    APPENDIX D Production Roles Producer: Has control over the entire production of a motion picture and is ultimately held responsible for the success or failure of the motion picture project; this person is involved with the project from start to finish. The producer’s tasks are to: • organize and guide the project into a successful motion picture; • organize the development of the film, and be quite active in the pre-production phase; and • supervise and give suggestions to be taken seriously by those creating the film. Director: The director is primarily responsible for overseeing the shooting and assembly of a film. The director’s tasks are to: • be directly responsible for the picture’s final appearance; • work at the center of film production; and • be inextricably linked with dozens of other people to get the job done. Screenwriter: The screenwriter provides more than the dialogue for the actors. The screenwirter’s tasks are to: • be responsible for organizing the sequence of events in a film to ensure that one scene leads logically to the next; • write descriptions of settings; and • suggest movements or gestures for the actors. • Production Designer/Art Director: The production designer is the first to translate the script into visual form. The production/art director’s tasks are to: • create a series of storyboards (a series of sketches to show the visual progression of the story from one scene to the next); and • determine the palette of colors to be used and often provides other important suggestions about the composition of individual shots. Cinematographer: The cinematographer is also known as the director of photography (DP).
