The Chase


During the filming of this project, I learned the importance of keeping the camera on the tripod so the film would be smooth and not shaky. I also learned that getting close-ups help smooth out the film and makes for less jump cuts and confused audience members.

Stuff for the second question goes in this paragraph here.

The collaboration for this project was different because beforehand there was only one actor and on cameraman/women. Now, with this project and moving forward there are going to be more actors and there needs to be more organization and better storyboards as the videos progress and get more complicated.

I can improve by following the storyboard more and not straying away from what the plan is. This will hopefully get my videos done quicker and nit having them overdue and late like the last one was.

Exploring A/V Video 1





6 Shot Video

This is a video on Brett.  He is drawing.  Thats all it is.  Drawing

My favorite shot of the six was probably the Over the Shoulder shot.  Its like a code up but its its own little thing.  Its a special little shot.

What I learned from this was how to use Final Cut Pro.  It reminded me a lot of iMovie but there was more stuff you can do and it was more straight forward.

   The Color Wheel.  Twelve colors placed in a wheel, whats the significance of that?  They're just colors?

   The color wheel is a simple visual way to compare colors an see which two go well together.  The colors that are connected by the triangles are the best when it comes to choosing which colors to put with together.

   What I learned from this project was just all the basics to Adobe Illustrator  and how to make shapes and change them around and add different colors.
