After a consultation session with Paul a few days ago, I have decided to another experiment, hopefully, the final experiment that will end my ‘series of experiments’ this semester for this studio. I have decided to put together Paul’s suggestion and my own inspiration from the last experiment for this last sequence.

This time, I focused on ‘location’ or spot for a different frame and shot. Not until this experiment, I realised that frame and the location or space within it matters in experimenting or investigating about angles. Which I think was a great knowledge to learn for the last experiment! I was intrigued by Paul’s idea of using the grass as another spot for my camera angle idea and experiment. So that’s exactly what I did, I focused further on being able to capture the significance of a space and/or location within a frame and how bringing this into a short montage (and later sequence) in a variety of different angles is actually pretty fascinating.

Here’s a glimpse:

I ended this experiment being able to learn the meaning behind what the use of camera angle could mean in film or in this case – series of experiments. Which is:

Camera angles have an importance of capturing different space within a frame that signifies a different look of the subject including their mode of expression. Some angles emphasise the subject’s action (such as the front angle for this one) but others emphasise the space the subject is in. Every angle is a different frame which simply means it paints a different picture. Thus, being able to understand the picture means that I have to be able to acknowledge the space and capture the right angle.
