Lecture
Week02/Framing and Storyboard

In this lecture, we learn about different types of framing sizes and shooting angles. Wide shots will be used to show the important elements to tell the audience straight forward the location or the surroundings of the character or subjects. Medium shot, to show expression, normally will show half the body part of the character. Medium close-up shot, used to let audiences focus on the expression. Over-the-shoulder shot, showing the p[point of view from others to the character or subjects, normally from behind. Extreme wide shot, show a broad view of the surroundings, usually used to show a big environment or city. Medium wide shot, between medium shot and wide shot, balances the character's move and the surroundings. Close-up-shot, isolate the most important part of the subject. Extreme close-up shot, singling out a portion of the face magnifies a detail and is used to focus the details or increase the drama or impact. We learned about frontal, side, and 45-degree angles for video filming, and also eye, low, and high view, each angle will show a big difference in the composition, but normally it will be keeping the consistency while changing the angle.

Week03/Storytelling in Film

In this lecture, we learn the basics of storytelling in the film. Act 1 is to introduce the base elements of the film. Act 2, is leading to the climax. Act 3 is the end of the climax, answering all the problems in the film. Plot point is the things or moves that push the story forward.

Week04/Mise en scene

Mise en scene, includes the visual aspects of storytelling, such as the set design, lighting, costume, makeup, and the positioning and movement of actores. In essence, it encompasses all the visual elements that contribute to the overall look and feel of a film or a theatrical production, shaping the audience's perception and emotional response. Directors and filmmakers use mise en scene to create a specific atmosphere, convey themes, and evoke particular emotions within the audience.

Sound Dubbing

In the sound dubbing section, we have been asked to add the dialog and sound effects to a silent video. We can find the sound effects online, but we need to work ourselves for the dialog. We need to remake a scene from the movie 'Munich'  with our own sound, first, we need to decide what sounds we need and record the dialog.

I follow the stats given for the sound effects adjustments but sometimes I can't really hear the sounds, so I change the stats to those I can hear. I use the pitch shifter for the dialog, to let my voice stick to the characters. It wasn't that hard, because we had already done the sound effects sheet so we could know what sounds we needed and where we put they.

Reflection

In this task, finding the right sound effects took a lot of time but Mr. Martin let us make the sound effects sheet in the beginning, the sheet did help me save a lot of time. Placing the track and sharping them isn't that hard, but adjusting the volumn is a bit confusing me, because if following the stats that given by Mr.Martin I can't hear the most of the sounds in the clip, so I just set the stat by myself. I did learn a lot of things from this task, having a clear plan at the beginning does help a lot during the progress.
