Camera Composition

Camera Composition is the way a director puts together the pictures from a camera. This assignment taught me how to better communicate with my teammate, along with a better understanding of designing slides.

  During the creation of the slides, I participated in the design of the slides, I was inspired to use film on the sides on the PowerPoint to show the evolution of film. The rule of thirds frame divides the frame into thirds and keeps everything centered in frame. Much like the rule of thirds, a symmetry balance shot also keep everything in frame centered. A asymmetry balance shot presents people and items in frame shown unevenly. A point shot shows the perspective of someone with the camera, much like the director does in Blair Witch or As above, As below. These shots would be good to know when filming our own short film, with the variety of frames to work with we could get as much information as possible in one scene.
