☀︎2. Five Video Shot ☀︎
AICE Media Studies Loose Close-Up Shot
AICE Media Studies Extreme Close-Up Shot
AICE Media Studies High Angle Shot
AICE Media Studies Overhead Shot
Before, during, and after filming the five different shots, it was interesting to plan out the ideas that I had for the shots and angles that I would want to take, along with the mood and perspective I wanted to set for the viewer. I planned on creating a peaceful atmosphere that showed the landscape of the school's garden and take advantage of the natural beauty and sunlight that was available. I've never experimented with camera shots and angles for an assignment, so being able to view it from a new perspective was honestly quite fun and entertaining, especially because I was able to film my shots with my friend. It was great to work alongside her since I would be comfortable asking her to lay on the ground for one of the shots, rather than asking a simple acquaintance, which would be slightly awkward. Each shot was thought out, cohesive, and had a theme, instead of it being shots with different ambiances or moods.
With the "Extreme Close-Up Shot", I wanted to capture the lavender from the school garden in it's natural environment, along with the fact that the scent of lavender is known to be calming. In the "Loose Close-Up Shot", using both the senses of smell and sight, it brings a sense of closeness and awareness to the landscape and greenery around, along with the gentle touch of the flower. The "Full Shot" gave a clear perspective of my subject's surroundings, and with her being right in the middle, it show's the focal point of taking in the beauty and being one with nature. Although I didn't have the proper equipment or technology to take a higher shot of my subject, I believe that my "High Angle Shot" was able to capture the relaxing mood of laying in the grass and basking under the sunlight. The last one, "High Angle Shot", I wanted this view from a high point to be the perspective of a tall tree, with my subject looking up to the tree, wishing to climb it and swing her feet from the branch.
