Lesson 4- First Studio lesson

Today we looked at set building and put it into practice. This was a huge learning curve for me as we literally started with a blank canvas. We learnt how to build the sets including the stands and weighting to secure them. This process was extremely simple but something that was extremely useful to learn for the future. I had never worked on a set nevermind made one so I was learning throughout every step of the way. We had to make sure the set walls were in tact and fix them if they werent with a simple screwdriver or hammer and nail. After all of this we began painting the set with was very satisfying as it felt a lot more complete when we looked back on it. As you can see we ended up creating a pretty good looking set. Unfortunately this isn't ours instead ours will just be a green screen which we will have to measure and create a room from by just visualising it. This brings a lot more difficult challenge during the pre production stages however I am looking forward to having a lot to play with and learn in the post production stages. I am already trying to get photos of George's basement so we can use it as the backdrop in the final edit.
