Reflecting on your blog:


Early in the year i learned the importance of the way to film. Shots, over the shoulder, long shots medium shots, two-shot, three-shot, close-up, medium close up, extreme close-up. You can see in my first film i didn't do this, especially in my "honesty" value video. Shots where we should of shown reactions up close an extreme close-up shot would of worked well. On my second project i learned how to add titles and backgrounds. A scene that showed this well is in the film called "finn!!" I understood all of this at the end of this semester i really understood what filming meant, it is alot then i expected.

Birds


Kaycee and I chose this topic because we couldn't think of anything better to do. Later on, we decided that birds were symbolic of this school year, and highschool in general, and how it goes by so fast.

reflection, Jabberwocky, special_effects


The special effect that we used the best was probably the first picture in the beginning called "solid composit" it showed a man dead and we added a red color in it to show the meaning of death, i just thought it was a very understanding and clever idea. The mood we were mostly trying to communicate is, a jolly mood except for ther beginning because the person is dead. The second picture and effect shows two men hugging to show when he hugs his son; the effect is bend we thought it looked cool because it makes it look like they are moving and hugging. The next picture shows people cherring to show frabjous joy. Then the happy man at the end chortles in joy.
