Lesson 5.5 Film Production Production stages Development - The development stage is the initial phase where a film project begins to take shape. Pre-Production - Which occurs before actual filming or shooting takes place. Production - Bringing the script to life and capturing the footage that will eventually be edited into a complete film Post-production - Occurs after the principal photography or shooting of a film has been completed. Distribution - The process of making the finished film available to the audience Film making role Director - The director is responsible for the overall vision and creative direction of the film.

Ambient Sound - This is the background noise that gives the audience a sense of the environment. Camera angles and Types of Shot Establishing shot - An establishing shot, often referred to as an extreme wide shot, is a cinematic technique used to introduce the setting or location of a scene. Wide shot - A wide shot, also known as a long shot, is a cinematic technique that frames the subject or character within the entire frame. Mid shot - A mid shot, also known as a medium shot, is a versatile cinematic technique that frames the subject from the waist up. Close-up shot - A close-up shot is a cinematic technique that frames a specific part of the subject's face or body, typically the head and shoulders. Extreme close-up shot - An extreme close-up shot is a cinematic technique that isolates a specific detail of the subject, such as an eye, a mouth, or a hand. Cut in - A cut-in shot is a cinematic technique that interrupts the main action of a scene to focus on a specific detail. Cut away - A cut-away shot is a cinematic technique that temporarily shifts the viewer's attention away from the main action of a scene.

Match cut - Connects two visually similar shots, linking scenes through composition, movement, or subject matter. L cut - The audio from the first shot carries over into the next scene, creating a smooth audio-visual transition. J cut - The audio from the next scene begins before the visual transition, preparing the audience for a shift in setting or time. Lesson 6 The Principles and Techniques of Design Using Online Creation Tools, Platforms, and Application to Develop ICT Content for Specific Professional Tracks Basic Web Design Principles and Elements Visual Hierarchy - It’s the order in which the human eye perceives what it sees. Divine Proportions - Designs that use proportions defined by the golden ratio are, it’s believed, aesthetically pleasing. Hick’s Law - Hick’s Law says that with every additional choice increases the time required to take a decision. Fitts Law - States that the amount of time required for a person to move a pointer (e.g., mouse cursor) to a target area is a function of the distance to the target divided by the size of the target. Thus, the longer the distance and the smaller the target's size, the longer it takes. Rule of Thirds - It’s the method of breaking up an image or design into different sections using columns and rows that form a grid. Gestalt Design Laws - Its principle is that the human eye sees objects in their entirety before perceiving their individual parts. White Space - White space (also called “negative space”) is the portion of a web page that remains “empty.” It’s the space between graphics, margins, gutters, space between columns, space between lines of type, or visuals. Basic Web Design Principles and Elements Typography - Choosing fonts and text arrangements that align with the message and audience. Kerning - Adjusts the space between individual letters to improve legibility or create visual harmony. Leading - The vertical space between lines of text affects readability and visual appeal. Adjusting leading can give text more breathing room or tighten it for impact. What is a Website Definition - A collection of related web pages under a domain name that serves a specific function. Components - Web pages, hyperlinks, multimedia, and the backend (servers). Purposes of Websites Informational: Share knowledge or provide updates (e.g., Wikipedia, news sites). Transactional: Facilitate purchases or services (e.g., Amazon, online banking). Entertainment: Offer content for enjoyment (e.g., YouTube, gaming sites). Social Connectivity: Foster communication and sharing (e.g., Facebook, Instagram). Educational: Provide learning resources (e.g., Khan Academy, Coursera). Branding: Showcase personal or professional achievements (e.g., artist portfolios). Community Building: Encourage discussion and support (e.g., forums, Reddit). Types of Websites and Their Purposes E-commerce - Websites designed for buying and selling products or services online. Portfolio - Personal or professional websites showcasing an individual’s or organization’s work, skills, or achievements. Blog- Online platforms where individuals or groups publish articles, updates, or opinions on specific topics. Social Media - Platforms designed to connect people and facilitate communication, sharing, and interaction. CMS-Powered - Websites created and managed using platforms like WordPress, Wix, or Joomla, which allow non-developers to build and maintain websites easily Key Components of Web Hosting Web Server - A powerful computer configured to store and deliver website data to users when they request it via their browsers. Hosting Provider - A company offering server space, maintenance, and internet connectivity to host websites. Examples: Bluehost, SiteGround, GoDaddy. Domain Name - The unique address (e.g., www.example.com) that users enter to access the website. The domain name is connected to the hosting server using DNS (Domain Name System). Bandwidth - The amount of data that can be transferred between the website and its visitors within a given time. High bandwidth allows for more traffic without slowing down the site. Storage - The space allocated to store website files, including text, images, videos, and databases.
