RULE OF THIRDS

  Rule of Thirds in Photography: The Essential Guide 258.5K The  rule of thirds  is perhaps the most well-known “rule” of  photographic composition . Use it carefully, and you’ll take some truly stunning images. But what actually  is  the rule of thirds? Is it really that helpful? And when can you break the rule for a great result? In this article, you’ll discover everything you need to know about the rule of thirds. And by the time you leave, you’ll know how to use it like a pro. Let’s dive right in. What is the rule of thirds? The rule of thirds is a compositional guideline that breaks an image down into thirds (both horizontally and vertically) so you have nine pieces and four gridlines. According to the rule, by positioning key elements along the gridlines, you’ll end up with better compositions. Here is a visualization of the rule of thirds: And to follow the rule, simply use the gridlines to position essential compositional elements. So when shooting a flower, you would place its

QUARANTINE. SPECIAL TASK

Imagen
Due to the quarantine situation, we must adapt the tasks to the conditions of confinement  we are in. So, I have decided to change the focus for this task into something different, this is:  QUARANTINE It is the title of the task and the topic to be developed. The rest is up to you, you decide what to show, what to do. YOU CAN CHOOSE WHAT TO USE: PHOTOGRAPHY OR VIDEO.   You can choose to make a video-diary, more or less close to reality, maybe shot a fake or not documentary or a parallel story to the events ... whatever you want to.  It is completely free of interpretation. Who knows, maybe it could help you to scape from this annoying time and keep your mind busy. Also, due to the very personal nature of this work, whoever does not want to publish it on their blog, can send it to my personal email. You can use my email to keep contact and ask for any question you need to resolve. Also you can send me parts of the short or some scenes if you have doubts about them. Hav

SEQUENCE, SCENE & SHOT

Imagen
In  film , a  sequence  is a series of  scenes  that form a distinct narrative unit, which is usually connected either by a  unity of location  or a  unity of time . For example, a  heist film  might include an extended recruitment sequence in which the leader of the gang collects together the conspirators, a robbery sequence, an escape sequence, and so on.  Each of these sequences might further contain sub-sequences; for example the robbery sequence might consist of an entry sequence, a safe-cracking sequence, and so on. The sequence is one of a hierarchy of structural units used to describe the structure of films in varying degrees of granularity.  Analysed this way, a film is composed of one or more  acts ; acts include one or more sequences ; sequences are divided into one or more  scenes ; and scenes may be thought of as being built out of  shots.

CAMERA MOVES

1 – What: Pan How:   Move the camera horizontally left or right . Ideally, you should use a tripod for a smooth effect. To be a great "panner", practice the shot several times at several speeds before you feel comfortable with it. Why:  To follow a subject or show the distance between two objects. Pan shots also work great for panoramic views such as a shot from a mountaintop to the valley below. Rule:  Always start on a still shot, begin the tilt, and finish on a still shot. Practice first. Look at the scene as the tilt reaches the middle portion between top and bottom of the tilt. If there is  nothing worth seeing, then the tilt isn't worth shooting . 2 – What: Tilt How:  Moving the camera up or down without raising its position. Why:  Like panning, to follow a subject or to show the top and bottom of a stationary object. With a tilt, you can also show how high something is. For example, a slow tilt up a Giant Sequoia tree shows its grandness and enormit

CAMERA SHOTS AND ANGLES

Imagen
CAMERA SHOTS There are many ways to frame a subject within a shot, which can range from showing their entire body to fixating on a finer detail, such as their eyes. In choosing the most fitting shot, you’ll need to bear in mind the message that you’re trying to communicate to your audience. Here are some of the most common types of shots and how you can go about using them: Establishing shot Often included at the beginning of a scene, the establishing shot helps to build ambiance and may give a nod towards the context of what’s to come. It generally comes in the form of a long shot and indicates where (and sometimes when) the scene is taking place. Full shot The full shot is just as the name implies and shows the entire body of the subject from head to toe. This shot tends to focus more on the character’s movement and gestures, rather than their state of mind. Medium shot Also known as the ¾ shot, the medium shot typically shows the subject from the knees up
