Filming Boxing

Group

Using what you learned from the videos tutorials, complete this assignment with the same three-member class groups you had when you filmed the shots tutorial. If you were absent, join a group that has only two members; if all groups have three members then you may join one of these groups but you must have special permission to have a group of more than four students. The fourth member will join fighter #1 and can share some of #1's responsibilities as the two #1's go against #2 fighter below.

Absent/Summer

If you are absent on the day the class filmed or you are a CA summer student then you will need to still do the assignment on time by finding two actors (anybody!) and you will film them and later edit all the parts of the video. If you want, you can team up with another student who may have been absent in one of the video classes and share the workload.

Gear Prep

Before you start filming you will need to prepare. Have one of the boxers wear a white or light colored shirt and the other should wear black or dark colored shirt. The shirts should be plain and not have distracting graphics or text on them.Each should wear a headband of some sort or you could wrap a tshirt, towel, or cloth around your forehead.All the boxers should wrap their hands with tape or they can use white or black cloth or clothing like socks. It does not have to look professional but just wrap them the best you can.Filming In your film, you should try to use a video camera but you may use a phone to film if you can't get a camera with video as long as it has good quality. You will not be using the audio when you are finished editing the video so don't worry about the background noise while filming.

In acting, a girl can attack the boy or a girl can attack a girl but do not record a guy violently hitting a girl. Whenever you show hitting, make it comical slapstick humor in a boxing match.

Plot Overview

Two friends, fighter #1 and fighter #2, will be having a boxing match. They will not be fighting each other out of anger but out of sport and competition. The camera person, who will be acting as the referee, will have to let a fighter film when he has to act. You may not have all three people in the same frame of a shot.

Outline

You must follow the Fight Scene Plan and make sure everyone agrees on what is filmed since it is a group grade.
