Reflection about this Shooting! EDITING 2nd version/3rd version
I just realized today about forgetting what do I want to show or present in this video, also what is the meaning of this video.
I think the second version is very messy, I cannot find a main concept after editing, so I tried another editing which is the third version and it still cannot reach my standard. That is the main reason for me to shoot one more time, try to be better.
I found the angle for shooting is also very important, I think my 2nd and 3rd version have some deficiency in shooting angles.
A bird’s eye angle is an angle that looks directly down upon a scene. This angle is often used as an establishing angle, along with an extreme long shot, to establish setting. A high angle is a camera angle that looks down upon a subject. A character shot with a high angle will look vulnerable or small. These angles are often used to demonstrate to the audience a perspective of a particular character. The example above demonstrates to us the perspective or point of view of a vampire. As a viewer we can understand that the vampire feels powerful. An eye-level angle puts the audience on an equal footing with the characters. This is the most commonly used angle in most films as it allows the viewers to feel comfortable with the characters. A low angle is a camera angle that looks up at a character. This is the opposite of a high angle and makes a character look more powerful. This can make the audience feel vulnerable and small by looking up at the character. This can help the responder feel empathy if they are viewing the frame from another character’s point of view.
But I am still confused about should I use all the same feeling angle for the whole video or use quite different angle to show the differences.
