Presentation Transcript

  1. Today we will: • Be introduced to the genres of storyboards and scripts and develop them for own PSAs. • Reminder: We are meeting in the basement of Graham Memorial Hall (room 018) at 9 am for a tour of the MRC

  2. Unit 2 Calendar

  3. Storyboard…

  4. Storyboards: What Is a Scene? • A combination of shots that shows the action that takes place in one location or setting.

  5. What Is a Shot? • A continuous view filmed from one perspective. • The view consists of: • Camera framing (how close or far is a subject to/from the camera) • Camera angles (angling of the camera from which you view the subject) • Camera movement (stationary or movement forward, backward, left, right, up, and down)

  6. A. Camera Framing • Extreme long shot • Long shot • Full shot • Medium shot • Close-up shot • Extreme close-up shot

  7. 1. Extreme Long Shot • Establishes the location or setting.

  8. 2. Long Shot • Shows the location, characters, and action. No characterization, lots of context.

  9. 3. Full Shot • Frames the entire height of a person, with the head near the top of the frame and the feet near the bottom.

  10. 4. Medium Shot • Frames an individual from either the waist up, or from the knees showing the audience just enough to feel as if they are looking at the whole subject .

  11. 5. Close-up Shot • Shows a character from the shoulders to the top of the head (collarbone included).

  12. 6. Extreme Close-Up Shot • Shows part of a character’s face in extreme detail. Very intimate and may make the audience uncomfortable.

  13. B. Camera Angles • High-angle shot • Low-angle shot • Eye-level shot • Bird’s eye view • Canted shot • Tilt Shot • Three-quarter shot • Over-the-shoulder shot

  14. 1. High-Angle Shot • A camera placed higher than the subject (not directly overhead) and tilted downward.

  15. 2. Low-Angle Shot • A camera placed lower than the subject and tilted upward. Makes the subject seem important and powerful.

  16. 3. Eye-Level Shot • The camera is positioned at eye-level with a character. In this case, it’s a Point of View (POV) shot from the boxer’s opponent’s perspective.

  17. 4. Bird’s Eye View • The camera is positioned directly overhead of the action

  18. 5. Canted Shot • The camera is tilted so that the subject appears to be diagonal and off-balance—often from a low position. Usually used to help create a jarring, "off center" feel.

  19. 6. Tilt Shot • A fixed camera that moves on a vertical axis, tilting up or down. • In this case, it might be the POV shot of a child looking up at an adult.

  20. 7. Three-quarter Shot • Positions the camera between a frontal angle and a profile shot—character is shown in ¾ profile. Shows emotions of the character while also providing some situational context.

  21. 8. Over-the-shoulder Shot • Positions the camera over the shoulder of one character, revealing part of the backside of their head and shoulders in the foreground, and focuses on the character facing the camera in the background. (Point of View of character whose back we’re seeing.)

  22. C. Camera Movement • Stationary • Pan shot • Tracking shot • Zoom shot (there are many more but you’ll need advanced equipment for them)

  23. 2. Pan Shot • A fixed camera pivots on its axis turning from left to right for the purpose of following the action within a shot

  24. 3. Tracking Shot • The camera tracks alongside of the object or person.

  25. 4. Zoom Shot • Camera stays stationary as the focal length of a lens zooms in or out.

  26. Visual Storytelling • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qyXFN4ocN_o • Pay close attention to: • The number of cuts (when and why); • Composition of frames (close-ups, medium shots, wide shots,…); • Camera angles (high-angle shot, low-angle shot, eye-level shot, bird’s eye view, …) • Camera movement (stationary, pan, crane, tracking,…) • The effect of each of these techniques. • What might a storyboard for this PSA have looked like?

  27. Create a Storyboard! • Take the rest of the lesson to discuss the number of cuts, composition of frames, camera angles, and camera movement in your own PSAs. • You should try to actually sketch a storyboard of your PSA. If this seems to be impossible due to a lack of artistic talent in your group, write a detailed script in which you add camera framing, angles, and movement to visualize your ideas!

  28. Homework for Wednesday/Friday • Wednesday: no formal homework. • Begin filming this week and hand in feeder 2.2 in print on Friday. • Friday: discussion and presentation session. Develop short, informalgroup presentations (max. 5 minutes) and introduce the class to your PSA concept. Involve every group member!
