The Chase

This is my chase video that I did for my video class. Kit Walters stars as I film. The video was about a girl running from something out of school in a chase like fashion. I started the project by talking with my partner on what we wanted to do than we storyboarded our ideas. We spent one hour collaborating, one hour filming, and one hour editing. During this film I learned how to collect a varied amount of shots in a certain amount of time. I also learned some new editing techniques with final cut. If I could do something differently I would take better shots and be more careful about getting a better shot. I would keep the storyline we had because I liked it. For my next project I will take more time and be more careful. I enjoyed this project and I wouldn't mind doing it again.

10 Shot Sequence- Late for Tennis

This assignment was to create a 10 shot sequence video about going somewhere. This video stars Wyatt Fowler and was created by myself. The shots we were given to use are close up, medium, extreme wide, point of view (POV), over the shoulder (OTS), and wide. Medium shots are from the waist up. Close up shots are from shoulders up and extreme close up is just the face or very close to the object. Extreme wide is showing main object as well as the whole background and wide is showing the whole main object with little background. A POV shot is from the point of view of the main object and an over the shoulder shot is from over the shoulder of the main object. From this project I learned how to further use final cut and I learned how to make my camera shots better by using camera settings.
