Adv Tips For Student Leadership

Now that you are advanced students, you will be expected to step up and become a leader in the classroom.  Read the following article and write a detailed, well-thought-out reflection based on your experience from last year.

Considering how you behaved last year, select 3 of these leadership qualities that you are weak in.  How can you positively develop these leadership qualities going forward this year?  How could improving these aspects of your leadership make you a better class leader and filmmaker?

The first leadership quality that I feel that I'm lacking in is extroversion. I'd say I'm an ambiverted person meaning showing qualities of both extroversion and introversion. I tend to be more introverted socially speaking but, this year I plan on changing that or at least improving it by showing my genuine interest in the questions beginner level students ask me. Friendliness and confidence in my responses will also help me. The second quality I feel that I need to work on is courage. Courage is something I feel I can improve on. I want to be able to take more risks freely and hope they succeed I want to show that I'm not afraid to try something new and different in my work. It's okay to have a different outcome. The third quality I'd say I want to work on when it comes to leadership is my confidence. Last year I struggled a lot on my confidence in my performance and abilities in film. This year I want to be able to believe in myself so that I can show to my peers that I know and I've truly learnt this material. Not only that but I also think it's important to be confident otherwise you'll be too afraid to even lead in times needed. Improving these skills will make me feel happier in general and boost my confidence to lead and create.

What is the difference between zooming and dollying? What do dollying and trucking add to the shot? While zoom is created through a static camera change in focal length. A dolly is created by moving the actual camera closer or farther. (Usually on a set of tracks) a dolly can be created using a prime lens, that's because the lens doesn't need to do anything. While a zoom shot only adjusts the camera's focal length a dolly zoom moves the entire camera toward a subject.

The History of Frame Rates Pt. 2

60 hertz = 60 fields per second. It is created in a 60th of a second resulting in a full 30 frames per second. It was chosen over the air broadcasting because flashing the same frame on screen was not an option that was technologically feasible. Engineers were also more concerned about bandwidth, something they were trying to conserve with over the air broadcast. Another reason to conserve bandwidth and avoid flickering each frame would be interlaced. The introduction to color factored in 1948, the FCC (Federal Communication Communion) put a moratorium on new television broadcast licenses as it tried to figure out what to do with the newly available UHF spectrum. TV sets access died off while they tried figuring out what to do.

Horror Lighting Tutorial

They talk about their setups in this video and the main one that caught my attention was the staircase scene they created. They put up two lights the first and 150 watt then they do a light with the projector attachment inside and they put an M size steel gobo that replicates the look of a four panel window thus giving the audience the idea this is coming from somewhere natural its originating from within the scene. The second light they use is the softbox on top of it so its not barefaced and they stick the egg crate on top of it to provide some directionality in the living room we put their third and fourth case of which in this case mul richarchardson they use as much as the same in the  projector attachment to illuminate a back wall.
