Zoe's Blog 

1.) Dolly Shot- I really liked Zoe's dolly shot it was done so well and made me feel like I was there and traveling through the hallway, felt so real. 

2.)  High Angle Shot- I loved Zoe's high angle shot because it made me feel like I was in power. I loved that it was taking high up and you could capture all the students in the courtyard and what they are doing because it just me a sense of strength and control. 

3.) Point of View Shot- I enjoyed Zoe's point of view shot because I felt like I was her; at first looking at my feet as I walk and then lifts head up to look at people. I felt like a connection like if  I had stepped into her shoes and was seeing the world from her eyes.  


Cayley's Blog 

1.) Follow Shot- I really liked Cayley's follow shot because it made me like I was there in the scene and actually walking behind the character, being Zoe, in my opinion it felt very realistic and a rather tranquil reassuring connection. 

2.) Two Shot- I enjoyed Cayley's two shot because I felt like if I was a producer recording the conversation and actions occurring between Zoe and Loren. I kinda felt like a spy because I felt like I was listening in to something personal that I shouldn't be hearing, but in my opinion it was really cool and let the audience see the camera from a different angle. 

3.) Over the Shoulder Shot- I really loved the over the shoulder shot because similarly to Zoe's high angel shot it gave me a feeling of power and control because I felt like I was right there with her listening, watching and following her every move without her realizing. Additionally, I kind of felt a connection like if I had a relationship with the character, being Zoe, like if we were close to her.

Storyboard shots who? Storyboard shots Woody!

 This is a pan shot. The subject of the video is my dog sitting on my bed. In order, to complete this shot, I slowly rotated the camera to the left horizontally from my night stand and bed to my desk and made sure my dog, Woody, was included.  This is an extreme close-up shot. The subject is a magnified object, which in this case is my dogs eye; it is the focal point of the shot and can be used to show great detail. In order to create this shot I just got the camera up close to my dogs eye and focused it.  This is a full shot. This shot captures the subject’s, being my dog, entire body from head to toe. In order to creat this shot I had my dog sit still and took a shot of his whole body from a farther distance.  This is an eye level shot. This shot is created to make it look as if you are looking into the subjects’ eye due to the level of the camera being positioned at the subjects’ eye level. In order to create this shot I had my dog, the subject, sit down and held ...

Hi, my name is Emily Solis and I am taking this class because I love try new things and want to enhance my learning about the media world. I heard that the purpose of AICE Media Studies is to enhance learners' enjoyment and appreciation of the the media world and its role in our daily lives. From this class I'd like to get a better understanding of the media world and the impact it has on us, as well as gaining some technical skills. I am no tech savvy so I definitely think this class will help me better understand and learn about different movie genres and eras. I love watching movies and have recently been more involved in the media world and would like to learn more about the way it a part of our daily lives and I think AICE Media Studies is the perfect class that can help me with that.

Film Viewing Practice Essay "Agent Carter"

-
  The film “Agent Carter" was directed by Louis D'Esposito and demonstrates a variety of different types of camera shots, editing, sound effects, and mise-en-scene throughout the short clip we watched of the film. Not only does viewing the film, but also writing about it helps me better understand the variety of different technical elements used in film because I was able to observe actual real examples of the film aspects we’ve been studying and learning.    To begin with, we have the different types of camera shots and angles used throughout the film. In the beginning of the film there were some close up shots of Peggy and Steve. It then transitions  into an establishing shot that shows New York, which helps set the scene and show the pass in time along with the difference in time period compared to what we had just seen. Additionally, the film uses an over the shoulder shot when Peggy is working at her desk and talking to two men. Moreover, the short clip from the...
