When it comes to Filming for my music video, there are many different pieces of equipment that I will be using. The first this equipment includes a DJI drone, Sony video camera, and an iPhone 13. The piece of equipment we will be talking about today is the Sony video camera. The Sony video camera comes in handy when wanting to fill high quality shots. Such shots include dutch angles, shoulder level angles, and hip level shots. A Dutch angle, also known as a canted angle or oblique angle, involves tilting the camera at an angle to create a sense of unease or tension. This can be effective in conveying a certain mood or emphasizing a specific moment in your music video. Shooting at shoulder level provides a perspective that is more personal and immersive. This angle is often used for dialogue scenes or to connect the viewer more closely with the subject. Pay attention to the framing and composition to ensure that the shot effectively captures the emotion or action. Experiment with the degree of tilt to find the right balance for your desired effect. Shooting at hip level can be a creative choice, especially for capturing unique and unexpected perspectives. This angle can add a sense of intimacy or playfulness to your video. Consider using the hip level shot during moments that require a more casual or unconventional feel. These type of shot will be very important in my video. As I mentioned in my research blog, I will probably be using the hip level shot at least once. Take advantage of the Sony video camera's manual settings to have precise control over exposure, focus, and other key parameters. This control allows you to tailor each shot to match the desired mood and style of your music video. That is all that is important about the Sony video camera. See you in the next blog.

When it comes to producing and editing my all about me commercial, there are many key factors. The key factor I will be discussing are the songs I chose. I will also talk about where they will be used in the commercial. For the commercial I will be choosing two songs that represent me. These songs will describe me as a person. One song will represent one of my past favorite hobbies. The other song will represent a special moment in my life. But to start off with, I will announce the final picture and video order. It will start off with a picture of me age three, with my Mom and Dad. This will be followed by another picture of me age four at my first year of baseball. This will be followed by a video of me at five playing baseball. Then followed by a picture of me age seven with me, Mom, Dad, My sister, and my brother (complete family).

CCR: Question 1 and 4

Hey Cambridge, I will be filming a day in the life of Dylan Tanner as I answer questions 1 and 4 of the CCR for AICE Media.   How does your product use or challenge conventions and how does it represent social groups or issues? In response to the first question, let’s break it down into two parts to better address both issues.   While filming this production, I chose to use a lot of shadowy imagery with fade-ins, fade-outs, tracking and sounds to build suspense without ever giving away the ‘actual monster’s’ face.   I used a variety of camera shots spanning from wide angles to close ups. I chose a variety of close-ups of the character’s faces to only reveal looks of horror and fear and to keep the identity of the ‘devil’ under wraps.    The music in the background starts out with a pleasant and low tone sound, with is paired with a visual of a clear road leading into the woods.   The tune becomes more ominous and the visual changes into a narrower an...
