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.
