Th e way a scene is arranged within the camera frame is the camera composition.  When referring to shot composition, it's all about the way the visual elements are arranged to convey a certain message.  Shot composition is all about how the visual components are placed in order to express a particular message. When we speak of the elements on the screen, we are referring to the actual performers as well as the scenery and props. By focusing on a specific person or object, a film composition might draw the audience's attention. Deeper meaning can be successfully communicated in a film through the compositional aspects without having to directly express what is happening.  For this assignment, my partner (Ashley S.) and I split the work by the two categories. Ashely completed the camera framing part of the PowerPoint, and I completed the camera composition section. Dividing the work made it faster and easier for us to do this assignment. We used the video lin...

Camera shot framing refers to how you place or position subjects and objects in shots. Instead of just aiming the camera at the subject, it's important to compose the shot.  A camera frame is one of the many still images which compose the complete moving picture or shot.  An image's framing can improve its aesthetic appeal and help the viewer keep their attention on the framed elements. The two primary framing styles are loose framing and tight framing. The scene is so scattered in loose framing that characters have a lot of room to walk around because all of the visual elements appear in a frame with a lot of empty space.  Tight framing is framing a little space around a subject or very close to your subject.  For this assignment, my partner (Ashley S.) and I split the work by the two categories.

  Th e way a scene is arranged within the camera frame is the camera composition.  When referring to shot composition, it's all about the way the visual elements are arranged to convey a certain message.  Film composition is crucial because it helps focus the audience's attention. The second reason composition is significant is because it enables us to produce visually appealing images that are distinctive to the director's style. It instructs viewers to focus on a single subject among many others or within a crowded scene. However, it also enables us to express information and subtext right away.    I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  We  used our notes and rewatched the camera composition video resources to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the effect camera composition has on films was beneficial for creating our storyline.

A camera frame is one of the many still images which compose the complete moving picture or shot.  An image's framing can improve its aesthetic appeal and help the viewer keep their attention on the framed elements. When creating shots, the director has to decide aspects like where the characters are positioned, or whether a frame should be balanced or symmetrical.    I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  We  used our notes and rewatched the camera framing video resources to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the different camera frames was beneficial for creating our storyline. This helped us to use the different camera frames in our storyline correctly. 

  A shot (also known as a scene) is a series of frames that runs for an uninterrupted period of time. Shot size is how much of the setting or subject is displayed within a given frame.  Camera shots are a crucial part of both filmmaking and video productions because they allow the filmmakers to emphasize particular feelings, concepts, and movements in each scene by combining various types of shots, angles, and camera movements. The way the subject is framed will have a notable influence on the scene.  Your shot size, or how close or far your topic is from your camera, will determine how the viewer should feel about it. I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  W e used our notes to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the different shot sizes was beneficial for creating our storyline. We found it easier to divide the shots equally among us so we could all have the same ...

  The camera angle marks the specific location at which the movie camera or video camera is placed to take a shot. A scene may be shot from several camera angles to stimulate a different emotion and experience.  In filmmaking, camera angles are a subtle but crucial component. Our eyes take in a lot of information from camera angles, even though we may not be aware of it. The use of several angles can reinforce or clarify a point, convey crucial information, and create impact on the plot of a story. I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  W e used our notes and rewatched the camera angle video resources to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the different camera angles was beneficial for creating our storyline. This helped us to use the different camera angles in our story correctly. 

  My group's goal of the preliminary exercise was to create a PowerPoint showcasing our knowledge about color and its effect in films.  The two other people involved in my group were Renee P. and Ashley S. (both in period 4)  We did this by analyzing movies of our choice and describing how the connotation of each color has an effect in the movie. For example, the color black (warm color) is usually known to symbolize power, anonymity, death, and elegance. When thinking of the  color white (cool color) purity, simplicity, and protection comes to mind. Red (primary color) is thought of to be a noble color usually used to show love, energy, and strength.

(both in period 4)  We did this by analyzing movies of our choice and describing how the connotation of each color has an effect in the movie. For example, the color green (secondary color) is usually known to symbolize nature and amusement. When thinking of the  color orange (secondary color) vibrance and warmth comes to mind. Purple (secondary color) is thought of to be a noble color usually used to show the transformation of someone or something. 

Paragraph 1:  The objective of this lesson was to create a color wheel Semiotic Analysis Organizer based on Roland Barthes' Theory of Denotative and Connotative Signs.  In film, color plays a significant role in mise-en-scene. Color is important to the audience because it can influence our emotions. A film's tone or mood can be established through the use of color. Exposure, lighting, and art direction are the three codes a film uses to illustrate color. Exposure is the amount of light admitted into a camera. The lighting in a film creates a visual mood in the atmosphere. In a film scene, art direction is the overall aesthetic of the scene.  There are many people responsible for color in film. Some of these people include screenwriters, directors, cinematographers, and production designers.  Paragraph 2: My group's goal of the preliminary exercise was to create a PowerPoint showcasing our knowledge about color and its effect in films.  The two other people ...
