Research: Camera Composition Slide Presentation

  

Previously, I did a post talking about camera composition and what it is composed of. However, to show our understanding about the topic me and my team did a different assignment. Rather than drawing an example of what camera composition is, we took photos. With the consent of some students, we used multiple camera shots to describe what each element means, as well as giving action lines and context on what is going on.


  The picture above was our example of a shapes shot. We gave a definition for what a shape shot is. We also described how shape shots are used and how they affect the people who analyze them.  Moreover, the action line for this shot referred to how the character felt after noticing that the stand is in the shape of a triangle. 


  On this slide, we talked about a rule of thirds shot. Just like the shapes slide we described how a rule of thirds shot can be useful. In the action line, the artist wanted to take a picture of the tree the biologist was analyzing. So, he took a first-person picture of the tree and put it in rule of thirds format. The genre of the shot was science.

The goal of using the mise en scene element known as, lighting is to emphasize the importance the object of character. Without lighting, it would be difficult to figure out why and object as simple as a strand of hair is so important.   Proper lighting can also set the main character atmosphere in a film. When the lighting reflects of a character's face in the right angle, it gives them that feeling of relevancy within the film. It shows the character's dominance within the film. At the same time, it can demonstrate how lonely the character is too as well. It can show how lonesome the character is.

Camera Angles Slide PowerPoint Presentation

   The last time that I did a post on camera angles, it was on a storyboard. Me and my team had to draw pictures of different camera angles. What makes this post different is that this time we had to take pictures and put them on a slide presentation. Me and my team had fun taking pictures and utilizing them in the most creative way possible. Moreover, in the process, we learned more about camera angles and their significance to film and photography, in general.   The slide above was about a low-level shot. We talked about the meaning and significance of a low-level shot. By the way, the person we used in the picture tried his hardest to not break character. The shot had to be retaken at least three to four times. Moreover, we used a story about a student bumping into a taller student as a way of making the shot make sense.   Moreover, in the slide above, we did an eye-level shot. In this slide, we talked about the meaning and significance of an eye-level shot. Moreo...
