This video also contains a social experiment to prove superiority of sound over image quality. Let me know if when the video quality dropped, it affected the information you got from the video. Or is it that: the video quality drop was negligible because of the fact that you could still here clearly. Kindly do let us know in the comments section.

It is really not easy but I'm rooting for you. You can do it. Remember, if it was easy everyone else should have done it. Which means it wouldn't have value anymore but the difficulty is what makes you special when you finally crack the code

Thanks for sharing sir. Please at what point should I use ( cont'd) Again where in particular should I put o.c,v.o and o.s

@africaamaze Год назад

Cont'd happens when you finish a dialogue and add a description in between. Because of the break, it's important to add Cont'd to specify that it's still the same person talking

@africaamaze Год назад

O.S is a camera description. V.O has to do with voice

@inusahcomedygh2942 3 года назад

Pls is it by force that u should write script before you shoot your scene?

@africaamaze 3 года назад

Yes Inusah Comedy Gh. It's important to always have a script. If you don't have the time, it's still important to at least have a written skeletal idea of what you are going to shoot. But it's best practice to write a detailed script. Try that and you will never regret it.

@srupomadhikary1255 7 месяцев назад

FIRST!!! SCRIPT OR STORY OR ONEPAGE SYNOPSIS???? WHIC ONE I SHOULD START???FOR PITCHING ANY OTT APPS

@africaamaze 7 месяцев назад

I personally turn to write a tagline first before the writing process. Unless you're pitching the idea to someone before you even begin writing the script, that is the only time I may choose to have a synopsis. However, I know such synopsis will definitely be altered again at the end because the direction of the film might change during the writing of the actual script
