Stalked

This video was about a girl who was getting chased and stalked and how she had to get away. We wanted to try to be creative and come up with unique shots. It was an ABAB sequence. This was challenging and helpful for many reasons. One reason it was challenging was that we had to have many shots and they had to move within only a few seconds each. Another thing that was challenging was how to get creative with shots. This was helpful because it taught me how to utilize my surroundings and come up with different shots. If I could change anything I would retake a couple of shots and correct the lighting in some shots. I would keep the story and the way we got from one place to another. We spent many hours filming and editing to make this video the best it could be. I learned that sometimes shots look different when shooting them then when watching them.  I thought this was a great project and I would definitely do it again.

10 Shot Sequence

In this assignment we had to make a 10 shot sequence video. We had to get one person from one side of the building to the other in 10 creative shots. We were given the shots we used. The shots we used were close-up, medium, extreme wide, point of view (POV), over the shoulder (OTS), and wide. Close-up shots are shots that a very close to the object. Medium shots are shots that are waist up. Extreme wide are being able to see the entire background and object in the shot. Point of view is the camera shot from the objects perspective. Over the shoulder is a shot that is behind the object but still being able to see the scene. Wide shots are shots that are whole body shots and being able to still see background. What I learned from this assignment was how to set the tripod and camera to fit the shot that I needed. It was a little difficult to make sure the camera was in focus and the white balance was perfect.
