Group Dynamics

-PICTURE OF US THREE-

    The way a group functions is very salient in how a project will go. Luckily our group had no issues really, in fact, it was a great experience working with Alejandro and Arturo. We evenly divided the work from the beginning, with all of us having a say while we were in coming up with the actual idea for our project, and all of us had ideas to add into the mix.

    After this, we continued to work together but narrowed our focuses a little bit. Arturo specialized in the technical details, costuming, dialogue, and props, Alejandro did some great camerawork and videography, while I focused on the editing. We all helped each other and oversaw each other's parts, as I know firsthand. All the while as I edited Arturo and Alejandro both were incredibly important with their help, and they always had something useful to say about any of the changes I made to the video

    I have nothing but good things to say about our team and the way we worked together, and I'd be happy to have the opportunity to work with them again in the future!

Videos

A few days back, we were made to create five different shots for our class with a partner, each using a different camera angle. Here is my work:      Video #1 - Introductory Scene - This shot shows the campus before stopping and zooming in on a tree, which the audience will ideally view as being the most integral part of the story. It's introductory because it shows the setting of the rest of the movie and introduces key items. This shot was created by simply rotating the camera and then using the zoom function on it, zoning in on the tree. Our goal of making an introductory scene was probably achieved.      Video #2 - High Shot - This shot displays Arturo (my partner) from a high vantage point below the viewer. In the video, he picks up a stick and slowly points it upward, towards the camera. The way this was recorded was by me standing on a bench and rotating the camera angle down at Arturo, then slowly tilting it upward during the course of the filming i...

CCR - Creative Critical Reflection

This is my Creative Critical Reflection (Length 11:44): NOTE: THERE IS AN ERROR AT 2:03 - I say "DIEGETIC SOUND" when I mean to say "NON-DIEGETIC SOUND". Summary: Overall, it was a great experience working on this project. The film overall is a horror / adventure film about someone who "loses" some of his friends while driving without any explanation or reason. This causes him to have a mental breakdown, serving as the intro to our movie "Search", which will presumably be about the driver searching for his friends. Analyzation: 1st scene: Color is utilized to symbolize future and foreshadowing; Non-diegetic Sound is not used to keep tone neutral 2nd scene: Could potentially be improved; we did not give anyone dialogue to use Transition from 2nd to 3rd scene: Could potentially be improved; There is a problem in that some viewers may think a significant amount of time is passing between the two scenes. 3rd scene: Moment of shock for driver; area in...
