preliminary exercise: camera movement video

The purpose of this assignment was to allow students allow to apply the key concepts they learned of both camera movement and camerawork into a production video. This assignment was completed in a group of 2 people. Student #1 had the responsibility of directing each video, they sketched the film out on paper before film day. Student #2 had the responsibility of filming the video, they recorded each video on a iPhone 13 pro. 

   After completing the assignment, I and my teammate concluded that dolly zoom-in was difficult. Due to us having to be still and get a nice still angle while going forward with the camera. The easiest one to film was tilt due it didn't required much action. My group worked well together, there was hardly any difficulty between us besides small miscommunication that was fix. To complete this assignment we only used a iPhone 13 pro to film the production videos.

Post production: day 2

The last day! Today went over everything and added sound, all the credits, titles,  and we also created our logo for our production company. Today everything all the hard editing done and we got our first draft !

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.
