Why do you have to hit the board when making a movie?

The first is to answer this question: why use slate?

The first and most obvious function is that WordPad can be used to record some metadata of recorded images. For example, which scene is this video, which shot, whether the sound was recorded at the same time, and so on. These are the contents to be written on the slate. These contents are extremely important for post-production. With these metadata, we can systematically sort out the shot materials, reduce errors and improve efficiency.

? What does English on the standard scoreboard mean? 1.？ Color stripe: Previously, film was used for color correction in development and printing.

2.？ Production. : the abbreviation of Production, where the name of the shooting project should be written.

3.？ Volume: The recording medium number is written here. Recording media, such as SSD or SD, CFast cards, will be constantly changed during filming. Every time a new blank card is used, it will be given a number to manage. Generally written as 00 1 and 002. If there are multiple seats, it is A00 1, A002 or B00 1, B002. This word was handed down from the movie era, so it means volume.

4. Scene: the scene number, indicating which scene the shot is. General scene number+lens number (usually in capital letters) are written together. Such as 12A, that is, shot a of scene 12.

5. Shooting: that is, the number of shots, indicating how many times this shot was shot (that is, which shot). This serial number, together with the on-site notes, can record which is good performance (G), which is bad performance (NG), or other information that directors need to know.

6. Director: Who is the director?

7. Camera: Who is the director of photography? Note here that this camera does not refer to the person who operates the camera, Cameron. Camera is talking about "director of photography", the most important person in the creative team except the director.

Date: Obviously, the date of shooting is written here.

9.Day/Night: refers to whether this is a day scene or a night scene. Mainly according to the notes on the script.

10.Int/Ext: refers to whether this article is an Interior (int, interior) or an Exterior (Ext, ext), and also according to the notes in the script.

1 1.MOS/SYNC: MOS refers to this unsynchronized recording sound. Mos is the abbreviation of "Mit Out Sound" or "Minus Optical Strip", "Minus Optical Sound" or "Motor Only Sync", which can't be verified.

12. filter: this refers to what kind of filter was used in this shooting.

What is the process of playing on the scoreboard? The following is the standard beating process:

1.？ Before the camera is turned on, you should first place the board in front of the camera lens and ensure that the camera can capture all necessary information.

2.？ After the camera and recorder are turned on, say the following in turn: scene, number of articles. (For example, Scene 2 Alpha, the fifth shot)

3. shout out the mark or mark, and then knock on the blackboard.

4. Leave quickly.

? Is this job very simple? This seemingly simple job is actually not simple. For example, if the camera is pointed at the face of a famous movie star, you must find a suitable position and never hit the board hard. Because the noise is really loud, disturbing the actors and ruining the atmosphere, you may lose your job, so you should say "soft stick" at this time and then put it down gently. When it comes to scene letters, you can't say A B C directly. You should call ABC by military call signs Alpha, Bravo and Charlie to avoid confusion of letters such as B and D. There are also some special cases where you can't put the slate in front of the camera at the beginning. You should remember to hit the board after shooting, say "tail slate" (that is, hit the tail of the board) and then turn the board upside down to indicate that it is a tail slate. Is it a bit overwhelming to hear that? Yes, there are many rules for playing board. You have to learn slowly through experience ~
