Reflection On Five Shot Sequence

As part of our Media AS course, as an introduction we were asked to film a five shot sequence about someone who had just recently passed their exams. In order to achieve this, we had to consider the framing and shot type and what affect we were trying to create. For example we filmed a close up on the eyes that looked as if they were scanning the page for a good exam result, this could connote that the person has failed their exams because of the way that their eyes are scanning the page at a fast pace. This is one of the ways that we have practiced filming in order to build our confidence for when we come to do our coursework, which is worth 50% of our final grade.
