Reflective Journal Post
- Go back to our creative intention which was:
- ‘To discover how you, as a novice cinematographer, can use framing and movement to communicate meaning.’
- Review your footage, with this in mind
- Create a slideshow which includes two examples of framing and a short commentary on…
- One clip (or photo), which you are pleased with and think that the framing communicates meaning.
- One which you are unhappy with and feel doesn’t really work, why not?
- Then two more examples, with commentary on…
- One for camera movement which you are happy with and what message does it communicate.
- One which you are less pleased with, why doesn’t it work?
Place this in your reflective journal, under the cinematography page under the sub page heading ‘Exploring Basic Cinematography’
Still got time? Then watch this video on…
Telling stories through images (a masterclass)
Remember the reflective journal is yours – not just a dictate from your teacher. If you have found these (or other videos) on cinematography inspiring then embed them into your journal and reflect on what they have taught you, and how you want to explore cinematography later in the course!
