I learned that you want to film a lot more than you end up including and overlap the action between shots so you have a lot more room for error. I also learned that you want to line up shots and audio very carefully with the arrow keys so it runs smoothly and it doesn't look like there is a delay between the audio and video. I learned to write down my log in to websites that we use.

I will use everything I learned from this project in future projects. I will also use my more expanded knowledge on the cameras that we used along with my familiarization to final cut pro.

Collaboration is two or more people working together effectively and this was very necessary to get more correct shots in less time. communication is key in collaboration and that is also necessary to get the right shot.

 

6 shot sequence

The six shots in the six shot sequence: The first one is the Extra close up or XCU, This shot includes a close up of the face. The face shown should be showing an expression or change in expression due to a reaction. The second is the over the shoulder or OTS this is another "uncomfortable" shot were the camera should be directly over the shoulder so the viewer can see what the subject is doing. Number three is the close up or CU usually a close up of the hands, It focuses on what the person is doing. the fourth shot is the medium shot or MS this is from the waist or hips up this begins to set the scene but still doesn't give too much away. The fifth shot is the Wide shot or WS this shot shows the entire person but doesn't give away the whole scene. The final shot is the XWS this shot shows the entire scene and the whole person and answers most unknown things about the scene.

I learned how to work with the cameras to get the desired look. I learned how big a deal it is to plan and draw out exactly what you will be shooting. I learned that the audience looses attention after 4 seconds and with that I learned how to portray what I want to.

I will apply every thing that i just wrote to my next project and probably even more.
