In this lesson I was assigned a task in a group to attempt to tell a story, I did this by using different angles, distances and frames to show how the camera can create a meaningful picture, but also by the models using a particular body language, facial expression, gesture and posture.

In my opinion, my first attempt at using a DSLR camera was successful, however there is definitely room for improvement. In some photos I think we achieved telling a story, for example, I took a long shot at a low angle to show a moving and slightly romantic feeling.

Here is my mood board:

Overall, I think this will help me with my music magazine production because it has allowed me to experiment with different camera shots and I feel I have more experience and confidence using a camera. Now I understand I can use camera angles, framing and MES to convey a narrative, to tell a story and to sell an idea.
