This week I plan to shoot another round of experiments but with a couple of inspirations that I wanted to try to incorporate.

For this next experiment, I did a couple of research that inspired me to do a little bit more than usual. Which is what it will end up becoming for the very last scene of this short sequence I will collate. These scenes and my initial idea were inspired by some scenes from the movie ‘500 Days of Summer’.

From the scenes that were in the movie, the location was almost exactly similar to what I have envisioned. Although, the shots and framing took a different turn (at least for me). In the movie, some shots were filmed with different focal length and depth, yet was shot in identical angles as my idea. I did want to replicate the scenes from the movie but I also wanted to be able to capture a similar idea or perspective that the movie has with a slightly different twist.

Which is why I wanted my character for this experiment ‘looking at the sky’ to end the sequence/experiment. However, I wanted this time to experiment with a slightly different technique where I used post-production or editing element to make the scene look a little more unique. I wanted to experiment with the idea of ‘stop-motion’ on the very last scene for this sequence, I am going to film this week. Additionally, I plan to be taking pictures of every little action to capture the ‘stop-motion’ idea using the same canon 5D Mark IV DSLR camera and this particular action will end this week’s experiment/sequence.

Although I was still experimenting with this idea, I wanted to explore more of these techniques in order to make audiences understand the differences angles can make in a particular action not only in ‘still shots’ but simply in ‘stills’. Therefore, I hope to be able to work on this idea and experiment further this week on the next round of my series of experiments towards the end of the semester.
