About pictures in my documentary

In my documentary, I will use some different kind of pictures such as history pictures and some motorcycle pictures. Sometimes, you need to consider copyright or contact with owner or photographer. I find a function in the Google than can help solve this problem and I can use them no worry. 

Google have a good function, I can use them for non commercial purpose. Thus, many topics of interview can use some meaningful picture. I also can choose which pictures I can modify. This is a quite good function for improve my documentary.

Description for exhibition


My subject of study is how to use visual design and editing techniques, so that the film has greater impact and engagement with the audience. Visual design and editing techniques are two aspects that can communicate mood and emotions. My final film is a documentary that has two parts. The first part was shot in the Ace Café, London. The second part was shot at the Mandrill Café, Beijing. I hope to explore the sub culture and language of the café racer in Britain and China. Riders say that the goal was to be able to reach 100 miles per hour (160 km/h), called simply "the ton" by the London racers, along such a route where the rider would leave from a café, race to a predetermined point and back to the café before a single song would finish on the jukebox. This is called “record-racing.” Every café racer has their own story, my documentary examines their stories and café racer culture in different countries.

About Broadway film and documentary editing

Last Friday, my Broadway film is wrapped. Thanks everyone help me to finish the short film. My classmates, Roger, Paul and Ella help me to finish my first feature film. Special thanks my actors, they gave me lots of advice in the filming. Because we only have one day shooting, so I miss a shot is Forest from the desk back to cooking area. But I try to use other footage to make it more smooth and reasonable. I already finish 2 scene rough cut. I try to finish all the rough cut in this week. Because Eric's house has a little narrow. How to set up the camera became a problem. I went to Eric's flat many times but some shots in my mind is totally different in actual shooting. I can failed to draw lessons. I will take camera to shoot some footage in the next time.

About my documentary, I try to make my documentary storytelling, people will not feel it odd. How to link my interview not too stiff. Lynda tutorial is good website, I try to watch some editing skills make documentary more narrative.  I plan to make two kinds of documentary about cafe racer. Next week, Jin and Eric will finish their filming. I can concentrate on my editing work. I know editing is a big project. It is not easily than shoot film. I will looking forward to finish my documentary as soon as possible.

Speed ramp in lynda website

I learn 'speed ramp' in Lynda website and Youtube tutorial. I learn these skill because I choose the music doesn't quite go with the style of music. So I try to speed up my footage and match it to the beat. I learn use M key to make a mark in my music track. Then I will have the beats to cut to. When I adjust speed of footage, I can select video quality for video improvement.
I also got a very busy month. I help them to shooting their films include Broadway film and their project. It is too busy and too tired, but I also gain lot of experience from their shooting. I know how to communicate with actor and how to set up light and sound. Roger also taught me what kind of shot size can express different meaning in your film. We learn how to teamwork in our small crew. Everyone give me lot of help, it is a unforgettable memory in my period of master. I still prepare my Broadway film because I need to filming it in this Friday. I almost finish all the preproduction work.

Short film for Broadway

I finish my shot list, call sheet, production schedule and location agreement. Simultaneously, Roger and Paul help me to confirm actors. Last week, we could have a chance to rehearsal our script but main characters have some reasons unavailable to rehearsal. I already prepare my props in the film. I need two costume  to each main characters, because it has two day in my short film. I also still revised my shot list. I want to make film looks like more better. We watch a short video in Broadway that is Roger's final project in his master phase. It is like a work of art. He use pinhole camera to make it and combine B/W photography. It is looks like a photo but we can see people cross the road. It is a very interesting and creative work. 
I still editing my documentary and we help Shirley to shot her film, I am camera man.
