| Shooting |
- Cable bashing- I learnt how important a role this is when shooting anything. The person in charge of this role is responsible for the safety of the camera when it is either being pushed on the dolly or hand- held.
- Dolly pulling- I learnt that there is a lot of physical strength needed for this role and there's a lot of pressure on whoever's taking that role as they're responsible for not just the speed the camera is moving at but also the quality of a shot as they have to take care not to hit the edge of the dolly track otherwise the camera gets jolted and thus quality of that shot fluctuates
- Clapperboard- Unlike the previous two roles, this role i'm very used to and have had a lot of practice in and therefore did not learn as much. However the importance of the high level of communication needed between the 1st A.D and person in charge of the clapperboard was emphasized to me.
- Lead guitarist for band 3- I learnt how to study the characteristics of the genre, rock, and my character's personality in depth in order to exude the same and not rely on communicating the persona of my character through the words of the song, which is what i'm used to doing.
