  For this assignment I had to produce 3-7 seconds videos based on six of the camera movement techniques I created in my storyboard with my teammate. This is to show that we understand how to apply the key concepts of camerawork and camera movement into a production. We chose to produce static shot, tilt shot, tracking shot, arc shot, whip pan shot, and zoom in shot. Me and my teammate decided to split the roles of being an actor, cameraperson, director, and screenwriter evenly. I was the cameraperson for tilt shot and tracking shot. My teammate was the cameraperson for the whip pan shot and arc shot. For static shot, I just placed my phone on the ground to film since it was a ground level shot also. For our last shot, I had two of my friends help me to create it. I directed my friend as to what he has to do as the cameraperson. Then me and my friend played as the actors. My teammate was the one who scripted this shot. All of these shots were filmed on my phone which is iPhone 8 plus.

 Hello everyone,    During media studies class I needed to apply my understanding of camera movements, shot sizes, angles, framing, and mise en scene into 6 short videos. To create these videos, I had to create a storyboard to help me plan it out. For this assignment I’m working on it with my teammate for the movie we are going to create. We decided for me to do the first 5 videos while she does the other 4. While we did split the assignment, we still helped each other in coming up with the scenes. In this assignment we had to draw the scenes, write the action lines, and state what type of shot it is while using the terminology of camera movements, shot sizes, angles, and framing.

Hello everyone,    During Media Studies class I have been learning about camera movement. Camera movement refers to the way a camera shifts to visually narrate and shape a viewer's perspective of a scene in cinematography. This is used to shift the audience's view without cutting. This makes a film more engaging to watch. In film, the cinematographer is responsible for camera movement. I researched about two famous cinematographers: Robert Richardson and Dean Cundey.       One famous cinematographer is Robert Richardson. Robert Richardson was the cinematographer for Salvador, Adrift, and Shutter Island. His work is truly incredible; my personal favorite is Shutter Island. Shutter Island is a thriller movie about a Marshall and his partner going to an asylum that’s on an island to fine an escaped murderess. As the movie continues on the Marshall (Leonardo DiCaprio) must overcome his dark secrets to figure out the mystery. A scene that really stuck to me is the “Where are the kid

 Hello everyone,    In media studies class we have been learning about camera composition. Camera composition refers to the way elements are arranged in a camera frame. Including props, setting, and actors. Camera composition is important in film because it helps to coney certain effects, emotions, and meanings. The camera compositions that we focused on in class were the rule of thirds shot, symmetry balance shot, asymmetry balance shot, point shot, leading lines, shape shots, deep focus, and shallow focus shot. All of these shots play a huge role in illustrating the meaning and mood of each scene.     For this part of the assignment, we had to create a storyboard while demonstrating our knowledge of camera composition in film. We had to draw pictures and include an action line for each scene. We had to make sure that each scene is somewhat related to our movie. Our movie was a horror movie that took place in a high school. We felt like we were able to incorporate this by using the ru

 Welcome everyone,    During media studies class we have been learning about the importance of camera framing. Camera framing refers to how you place or position subjects and objects in shots. Instead of just pointing the camera at a subject, it's about composing an image. Framing can make an image more pleasing to look at and keep the viewer's attention on the framed objects. There are two types of camera framing: loose framing and tight framing. Loose framing is when all visual elements appear in a frame with great amount of open space and the scene is so spread out that characters have a great freedom of movement. Tight is when there is a little space around a subject or very close to the subject.    For this assignment we had to create a storyboard. We had to include shots from our movie that can be considered as a type of camera framing. For camera framing we included, single shot, two shot, three shot, four shot, crowd shot, point of view shot, over the shoulder shot, and
