8/18, learning shots, and storing shots

 Today (8/18), we've learned how shoot various different camera angles, and how we store them in our google drives.

Beginning with shots, we started with the basic establishing shot, master shot, and wide shot. These three establish the setting, confirm the setting, and highlight the environment around the character. Then we have the full shot, the cowboy shot, and the medium shot. These three are meant to present the character, highlight waist level details like a holster, and highlight the characters upper body. The final three we learned were the Medium close up, the close up, and the insert shot. These three all center the camera around the characters upper body, their facial area, and little details, all meant to add emotion and detail.

As for storing shots however, i was already versed in this. I'd take photos from my phone, upload them into google drive via the app. After uploading them, I'd download them into zip files and move them into my AICE Media studies folder, allowing me remote access along with group access to any projects.

All in all, today was a good refresher on the basic principles i had learnt in film 1
