Preliminary Exercise: Camera Movement Videos

Camera Movement Videos

The purpose of the exercise was to educate us on how to do camera movement as well as incorporate camerawork such as shot sizes, camera angles, camera framing, and camera composition to prepare us for the film we were going to make. Everyone in my group played a part in acting in the videos, as well as each of us took turns to film the videos for maximum efficiency.

The first video taken was a zoom in, medium frame, over the shoulder, eye level shot. It was able to capture the emotions and feeling into the scene. The girl was looking at her friend in a mysterious manner after something happened between them.

The second video taken was a panning, establishing, eye level shot that was able to capture where all the scenes/ videos we made were taken place.

The third video was of the 500 building where most to all of the videos were taken place. This was supposed to be an eye level master pull out shot.

The fourth video was 3 friends with the middle being the popular girl looking and judging a room that they walked into. It was a low angle three tilt shot. It was to show the intensity of the scene.

The fifth video was a girl running away from someone following and stalking her, they were coming to her with a knife. This was a random movement eye level one shot. This was able to capture everything that was happening in the scene.

Preliminary Exercise 3: Mise En Scene Codes and Genre Conventions Bubble Diagram

Genre in film is the type of film/ theme of the film, and for audiences knowing what the genre of a film helps them figure out if they are going to like it or not. Three genres that I usually enjoy watch is horror (usually has a dark disturbing subject matter), comedy (typically emphasizes the humor in a film), and Romance (focuses on a romantic relationship and story). These can be involved in the same movie which is why I really enjoy it. From the media it shows what the audience enjoy and once they know the background, they can be more engaged into the film. We were to pick a genre and movies that can go with the genre and fill out the customized bubble chart that goes along with it. I learned many components that go along with the genre "horror". I worked by myself, and I knew since I enjoy art stuff so much it was going to be a better assignment. To represent the horror in my poster I drew Penny Wise's iconic red balloon, Jason's mask, and the tree from the conju...

Introduction to Mise En Scene Codes Organizer

Elements of Mise En Scene Mise en scene is examples of signs: camerawork, sound, editing. Knowing these signs are important to a film to further develop the overall style and quality of it. Mise en scene is what makes up the film, it helps develops the theme of the film, and it makes for better outcome of a film. These pictures show the information that develops the movie further on. The mise en scene that is shown tells us that this movie is rustic and old but still modern in a way with a horror color scheme (dark colors and red for blood).

Camera Movement: Video Ideas Storyboard

Camera Movement For this project my teammates and I had to complete a video storyboard helping to explain what camera movement was. in the process we found out that camera movement is the perspective of camera changing by moving the camera around. For this storyboard we made nine different scenes, and we are making six videos from the planned-out scenes during class. Each of the storyboards we had to have a different camera movement and had to include the action line, shot size, camera angles and the framing for the scene. I was in charge of writing down the ideas the team had and then sketching it to make these scenes come to life.
