planing for the encounter

planing for the encounter

 This week i learn't about cutting,editing and the different rules of filming for example transitions. A transition is how you edit from a shot to the other, I also learn't that fade to black, dissolve and cross fade could be used at the beginning of a scene or at the end, I learn't that  match on action is where you have two pieces of footage that flow from one shot to the other. I learn't about shot reverse shot  where we see A's point of view and then you cut to person B's point of view this makes sure you
have talking space and the 180 degree rule. The camera starts shooting from the left side and then continues shooting from the same side. I learn't the establishing shot is the setting of the scene, mid shot is where they are showing half of the body. A close up is a shot is where we see detail and a extreme close up shot is where there showing more detail. A high angle shot, low angle and a canted angle shot is where the camera is not straight a tilt movement only goes up and down, pan goes from left to right and tracking is where the camera follows you. This week i came up with a story board of myself staring at the camera which is supposed to be me looking in the mirror in a bathroom free-styling and preparing myself for a rap battle right before Rashaan walks through hallway to the bathroom door and opens it. This is a story board idea I planned with my brother Rashaan.
