O'Fiaich Open day

O'Fiaich College 
Opening day 
Patrick Halpenny

Introduction

What was asked of us to do in this assignment was to make a promotional video for the college open day and edited for attracting new student in the future      

Planning 

What we where asked to do in this assignment was to go around the college in are Film groups and interview people who are part of the courses and the new possible student that may come to the college to do there studies and asked them a few question about there reasons for coming to the open day.

my film group consists of the following and there roles on the open day: 

  • Patrick Halpenny- Sound guy
  • Steve O'Hare- Camera guy
  • Aisling Hogan - Interviewer asking question about the College Courses
  • Sanjo Olajubu - asking people to be interviewed nicely 



On The day of the opening day we were the first groups of two to go out and film  open day this meant we had an early start easy to find a place to set up and have are area to do are interviews in an sound free area so there would not be any difficulties in doing so for sound spill. This is my role for being the sound engineer to make sure it is easy to hear when people came to talk to us about the open day making sure everything sounds good on my end so editing would become easier if there isn't any noise spill coming the background

The way we will be working on how to record this is look up previous video of opening days in are college and see how the film it and what we thought about them if there was any mistakes in them, what was left out that could be included in this years opening day. 
not only check out are own college videos but see online what sort of opening days are out there on YouTube

the other thing we had to do as a group is decide which courses  we're taking and make write up are method of shooting and questions.

The list of questions we had made for any prospective student plans to come here or if it's current students and not forgetting the lecturers themselves to tell us all the facts about the course and the benefits of taking part in this area of studies.

The list of questions we had made up for the opening day were  

Questions

Current Student's
  1. what was your reason for picking this course?
  2. are you enjoying the course so far?
  3. what are your expectations when you finish your course in O'Fiaich's

Future Students

  1. why did you decide to come to the opening day?
  2. by coming to the open day to see the course do you think you would like to attend here?
lecturers
  1. can you tell us about the course you doing and whats involved in doing so? 

Camera Shots 

when doing interviews like these it is usually common to have a close up angle of the person who is been interviewed just showing them with no interviewer and maybe the mic appearing in it depending on which sound mic we're gonna use on the day. Also when asking questions we want the interviewer to quiet when talking so the can fully answer the question the were asked.
