Task 1 of 3:
Introduction: write the script that you will be recording for your introduction here. Introduce yourself
and say what the documentary will be about. Maybe make a statement that you are going to challenge or
ask a question that you’re going to try and answer through the course of the documentary and in the
conclusion.
A question I will try and answer throughout this documentary will be how has slow motion changed over
the years and how has it effect cinema.
Task 2 of 3:

Key people in slow motion: august musger was the
first creator of the slow motion camera.
Once august finished his invention years later Hans
Lehmann took on august work to create his own
with a better form. This then motivated august to
remake his to be better with more wheel of mirrors.
Key techniques Vo:
The first way they had discovered slow motion was
by Over cranking the camera to make the frame
rates higher therefore slowing it down when you
play it back
August created an optical compensation when he
started his invention in slow motion. It was created
to divide a dark chamber in two one was a conical
lens, wheel of mirrors and a rotatable prism, and the
other one with rollers along the wall that guided the
film strip from the light through the gap onto the
mirror it projected it through the lens to where the
film was being viewed. from the speed that the
mirrors were rotating it formed it out at 32fps and
the played it back at normal speed creating it to be
different frame rates causing the need to watch it at
the same length filmed having it slowed down.
How technology has improved:
Slow motion went from using higher 30fps speed
cameras then by playing the footage on a normal
camera at a rate like 24fps.
It then was formed into being able to do it in a post-
production software. So that now you can do this in
an eddting process in premire pro, twixtor, after
effects and many other editing softwears.
Other technology's that you can use are a Go pro

it has now been developed so that you can use it
from a phone on a camera setting and there are
multiple apps that have the slow-motion setting
making it quicker and a simple way for it to develop.
My own attempt: Vo: this is me having a go at slow
motion recreating and learning more into how slow
motion presents itself. Slow motion Is an effective
visual image as it is mostly used to create dramatic
emotion into a scene this can keep the scene simple
but have a big effect on how the audience feels and
understand what is happening in a different
perspective.
Interview Vo: the response of the questions that will
be asked
Conclusion Vo: slow motion has changed over the
years as it has gone from hand cranking a camera to
a more simplistic form and being able to capture it
on a phone. Slow motion has changed films as it is
an important visual technique in capturing an image
sequence helping it look more into capturing
emotion and engaging the audience in a way that it
is more dramatic being able to slow a scene down
keeping audience on edge.
Task 3 of 3:
Conclusion: write the script that you will be recording for your conclusion here. revisit your initial
question or statement from the introduction, recap some highlights of the things you’ve studied for your
question/statement and suggest whether the statement is supported or what the answer to the question
was.
