Preliminary exercise: lighting

   In filming any type of lighting in the film plays a MAJOR role in the process. Lighting in the film shows the audience where to look, and what's important and gives context to what's going on. Natural lighting is natural daylight without the help of any other light fixtures. Key lighting is the main source of lighting that is used during the shot. It's usually one bright light on an object. High Key lighting is where the main source of lighting is positioned high to point the subject evenly. This is used to create clean and modern looks. Side lighting is positioned at the side of the subject instead of in front or behind to only get the side image. This is usually used to show the contrast between lighted and unlighted areas. Bounced Lighting is where a light fixture is reflected onto the subject to create a soft look. Lastly,  Practical lighting is a typical light fixture that you might have around laying in your house like a lamp or wall light.

introduction to storyboarding camera composition

Camera composition is how objects or subjects are arranged in the frame. The position of the visual elements in a frame such as the objects or subjects in relation. Composition can also make an image more pleasing to the eye and keep the viewers focus on framed object(s). Rule of thirds and Leding lines are both examples of camera composition. Rule of thirds is a guideline that breaks an image into nine Pieces. Leading lines are visual elements that the photographer positioned that draw attention to the viewer's eye. The concept of this exercise was for students to study and analyze the 4 main concepts of camerawork, shot size, camera angles, camera framing and camera composition. Students were able to plan a story board frame, understand the ways in which media language works with viewpoints. Also, how the audiences respond to interpret media language. Completing this exercise was very entrancing.

Welcome to My AICE Media Studies Blog!

  The importance of studying media studies is to further understand the importance of the concept of the media. To understand both the consumer and producer part of it. To be able to work with new technologies and learn key communication theories. Personally, Social media is my favorite media product because I get to interact with people all over the world, including my friends and family. I also get to post content people can relate to or just simply have an interest in. As well as view other people's content that I am interested in. I feel that social media is engaging to others in my age group because we get to view and react to content all over the world.
