- | ===== Shooting a lab film ===== | ||
- | Laboratory film can be applied to different educational settings. For example to prepare experiments or as part of safety instructions. Laboratory films may also display otherwise dangerous, expensive or experiments with limited accessibility (e.g. for larger audiences). | ||

- | ==== Concept phase ==== | ||
- | |||
- | Before you start your recordings: | ||
- | * What role does the video play in your curriculum? | ||
- | * What are its limitations? | ||
- | * How can you time the production on premise? | ||
- | * What can or must be displayed online? | ||
- | |||
- | It is crucuial that a laboratory video should not be a stand-alone but embedded in your curriculum. Optimally, you link it to other learning activities such as | ||
- | * a test ensuing the film screening | ||
- | * ask students to list questions concerning the film content | ||
- | * additional calculations in relation to the experiment on display | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Recording and production tips ==== | ||
- | Laboratory videos can often be produced with a low number of camera angles and therefore needs to be prepared well. Example of a simple camera setup: | ||

- | |||
- | |||
- | Recommendations based on our experience: | ||
- | |||
- | **Establishing Shot**: An introductory sequence facilitates your viewers' | ||
- | Students can follow your film's argument more easily if you portray an overview first. | ||
- | |||
- | **Two perspectives**: | ||
- | |||
- | **Fill material**: Remember to record audio and visual content to be used in postproduction such as static images, shots of locations or interviewees as well as so-called //atmo: atmospheric sounds// (these are sound bites that capture a location' | ||
- | |||
- | **Zoom or pan**: Too much movement on screen may take away the focus of your viewers and causes an unprofessional look and feel. If you intend to focus on a detail you just jump to this detail by editing in a close-up shot in postproduction. This is called a //standard cut// or //hard cut// and is a common film technique that is quite pleasing to the human eye and flow of attention. You can also jump directly from an establishing shot to a close-up or walk up to the matter on display. We recommend the use of a [[https:// | ||
- | |||
- | **Tripod**: You should always stabilize your camera, preferably with a tripod. Stabilize handheld shots by leaning on a wall and support the camera with both hands. Keep your ellbows close to your body. Support your arms by leaning or laying down on a stable surface. | ||
- | |||
- | **Landscape format**: This may seem trivial but always shoot your laboratory films in a landscape format if you shoot with a smartphone. | ||
- | |||
- | **Postproduction is key**: Keep postproduction in mind. Filmmakers often joke they will //fix it in post//. While minor mistakes can indeed easily be fixed in post, this is not true with regard to most mistakes by less experienced filmmakers. It is therefore crucial to avoid major mistakes and/or time-consuming efforts to repair them in postproduction. Shoot clips multiple times instead so that you have more choices in postproduction. | ||
- | |||
- | ==== Filming with a smartphone | ||
- | |||
- | A smartphone can be suitable for laboratory film production. Have a look at your phone settings as the following two settings will be of relevance (the information may be located differently on your phone, this depends on your software and provider): | ||
- | \\ | ||
- | 1. **Focus**: Most apps allow to turn off auto focus (AF) by pushing on the center focus point. Choose manual focus or static focus instead.\\ | ||
- | 2. **Exposure**: | ||
- | |||
- | Camera apps may provide a broader range of settings and may be necessary to attach an external microphone. There are various apps available. We gathered good experience with the following apps: | ||

- | ==== Audio settings ==== | ||
- | |||
- | You may want to consider these two basic audio setups:\\ | ||
- | \\ | ||
- | 1. **Voice recordings**: | ||
- | 2. **Voice over** (including ambience sound): This audio can be produced independently. Please consider our advice on [[barrierefreie_gestaltung: | ||
