My Camerawork Composition

Image
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.  Deeper meaning can be successfully communicated in a film through the compositional aspects without having to directly express what is happening. For example, in a leading line shot the line shape draws the audience's attention to a specific point of interest. I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  We  used our notes on camera composition to help us complete this...

Camerawork Framing

Image
  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. For example, an over the shoulder shot is when the camera is positioned facing one character while hovering just behind the other character. This camera frame is usually used during conversations to track the reaction of the characters. I had a good experience creating this storyboard with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  We  used our notes and online examples 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. 

Camerawork Angles

  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. For example, a high angle shot is when the camera is facing downward on the subject. It is usually used to show a variety of emotions and convey character information.  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 other resources to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the different camera angles was beneficial for creating our storyline.

Camerawork Shot Size

Image
  A shot 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. For example, a master shot features important characters during a scene. A master shot can show the audience the relationship between the characters as well as the set.  I had a good experience creating this PowerPoint with my group members Ashley S. and Renee P. (period 4).  W e used research to help us complete this assignment.  Being informed about the ...
