Rule Of Thirds

Here I have taken some photos myself to help get to grips with the shots sizes and framing techniques:

  Extreme Close Up

Close Up



Medium Close Up



Medium Shot

3/4 Shot






                                                           


 Medium Long Shot









Long Shot




 It is important to have all of these different shot size because all of these shots allows use to capture different emotions within the character or surroundings. For example a Close Up would capture the face expressions of a person and the audience would be able to portray the emotions of these character.

Storyboard Drawing, Shot Sizes and Framing

Here I am showing different shot sizes and framing techniques. By doing this I hope to get a better understanding for shot sizes and framing techniques:

Top Left: Extreme Close Up (ECU)

Top Right: Close Up (CU)

Second Line(Left): Medium Close Up (MCU)

Second Line(Right): Medium Shot (MS)

Third Line(Left): 3/4 Shot

Third Line(Right): Medium Long Shot (MLS)

Preliminary Task Introduction

In our preliminary exercise we will be doing a task involving filming and editing, the criteria is:

• To be in groups no bigger than 4.
• A character opening the door.
• The character crossing the room.
• Sitting down in a chair opposite a another character.
• Finally characters must exchange a few lines of dialogue. 

 Also in this task it demonstrates match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. By doing this task it should help us get a better understanding of techniques, words and shots which will help us progress forwards in the course.
