AB Sequence

Shot Sizes and Sequencing   

 The six main shots for photography and video making are very crucial in order to make a good film. Each shot adds a certain part to a story whether it is giving us details of the setting or showing us certain emotions of a character. Along with shot sizes comes sequencing. Sequencing is also vital to film making. If certain clips were placed randomly together, the story in the video makes no sense. Sequencing makes the story fit like puzzle pieces. With these two components, anything can happen.

Brainstorming

     Our idea for this project of sequencing was to do a thriller or horror chase scene. The idea of a chase scene was shot down by the teacher, so I worked around the chase scene to make our project more of a horror or thriller. Instead of a chase scene, the "victim" was to run towards safety while the "killer" can teleport anywhere. This still gave the impression of a chase without any chasing taking place. This worked better than a chase scene due to the fact that the "killer" can teleport anywhere. This gives the audience a sense of dread by reason being nowhere is safe.

Editing

     For editing, I used Adobe Premier Pro. The goal was to try to cut the runtime to thirty seconds, but if needed, we could go longer than thirty seconds. Editing was easier this time around because I knew what certain things did. This time, I learned how to make a Title shot.
      The title shot was interesting due to the possibilities of color and style an editor could add to the title slide. 

Overall

      the collaboration with a new team was interesting. The variety of skill in this new group was evident due to the two other people's knowledge in the thriller/horror genre. I have not seen any horror movies, so their knowledge benefitted the group as a whole.
     I did not think this was the best video I made, but it is still good for a beginner.
