My Camera Work: Camera Composition

Camera Composition


Camera Composition is how the cinematographer choses to arrange certain elements in the frame of photos or films, whether it is a character in the or item. This adds dimension and further improves the media.

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...
