6 Shot System



                                                             6 Shot System   
       The first shot in the 6 shot system  is the extra close up. In this shot only the hands are shown. This lets the viewer know what the person is doing ,but nothing else. The next shot is the close up, which shows only the top of the face to the end of the chin. This shot identifies who the person is. Shot #3 is the over the shoulder shot, it shows part of the back of the shoulder and head and this shows what the person is doing. The next shot is the medium shot. In this shot it shows the person from the hips up, and they are the main focus of the frame. The wide shot is the 5th shot. In the 5th shot they are shown from head to toe and it also shows part of  the setting. In the last shot which is the extra wide shot. In the extra wide shot you can see all of the setting and the person only takes up a small portion of the frame. I learned what a jump cut is, and that is where a wide shot and an extra wide shot are put next to each other when edited. I also learned How the put the video clips in a good order so that the story line made sense to the viewer. Next time I think I could have all of the frames set up a little better.

Orthogonal Cube

  In illustrator we made orthogonal cubes. We watched a tutorial on Lynda.com to figure out how to make all of the sides equal. We had to copy and paste the three main lines and copied them several times to finish off the cube. Then we added color to the cube to give it depth/perception. The darker colors make it look farther behind and the lighter shades make it come forward. Then i rounded the edges of the cube so that way it did not have weird tails that lost the flow of the eye making it look 3D.  This was a challenge for me because there was so many steps to do to make it look accurate. However the end result was with it, because it looked really awesome and it's cool to say that I made this from scratch.

Senior Project Final

I have finally finished my magazine. 1 front cover, 3 articles, 3 visuals, and 1 back cover. I did it. I am super proud of myself for all that I accomplished. I finally made something that represents not only my creativity, but also what I believe in. This project has also given me the confidence to know that I can start something from the sketches all the way to the final file, and have every single word and design come from me. I am so thankful that I trusted my gut and chose this as my final project. But most of all, I am glad that I learned that it is okay to use your experiences to influence your creative work.

The Interveiw

       During this quarter of video I learned how to use Final Cut Pro and all the short cut keys that make is easier to use. Like command B is the blade tool and command I is import and command E is export. I also learned what the six shot system was and how to frame all of the six shots. The hardest ones to frame are the close up, extra closeup, and the over the shoulder shot.  I also learned how to work in a group and spread the work out evenly so that everyone has a fair amount of work so that everyone did a part so that the video got done by the due date. In the future I can use my group working skills in whatever strand I choose to go in because no matter what I do I will always have to work with people, and communicate my ideas and what I am envisioning in my head so that the people I am taking to can see what I am seeing.
