AB Sequence

Some of the things I learned how to do during this project are camera tools and responsibility.  I also learned that the arrow keys are your friends. Another thing I learned during the AB Sequence is command i and o.  I used these to make sure my music and video made sense and lined up together well.  Some things that I will use for my next project are how to use the zoom on the camera and that when you think you are close you're not close enough.  Other things I will use are communicating skills.  Its good to be able to talk to your actor or actress to make the video look as best as it could.  

Collaboration in my eyes is being able to communicate and get things done with your client or partner. This was a big contributor to the project because you and your partner had to communicate with each other during story boarding and filming so that the video looked good.  It also helps your people skills because you learn to work well with people who you don't usually talk to or new people

6 Shot Sequence

The 6 shots in the 6 shot sequence consist of extra wide, wide, medium, over the shoulder, close up, and extra close up.  Extra wide is head to toe of the actor and the scene.  Wide is the head to toe of your actor.  Medium is hips up, over the shoulder is exactly what it implies, showing what the actor is doing.  Close up is of the face only showing the actor’s emotion, and extra close up is what the actor is doing, an up close of their hands.  I learned that if you don’t know what you want to do while you’re filming or you don’t have everything you need, it’s going to be very hard to film.  In my next project, I will take into account the correct amount of tie it takes to prepare and get all of your shots and props planned out before you start filming.
