Camerawork in film is the choices made by the cinematographer and director regarding how the camera captures and frames the action, characters, and scenes. It involves the use of different camera angles, movements, and compositions to visually tell the story and evoke the specific emotions in the audience. Camerawork is important for visual storytelling, setting the mood, enhancing characterization, creating visual interest. Shots sizes is the distance between the camera and the subject being filmed. For example, a close up shot, it's the camera being positioned up close to the subject. Camera angles is the position from which the camera captures the action or scene. For example, a low angle, it's being taken from a position below the subject. Framing is how the elements within the shot are composed or arranged within the frame. For example, rule of thirds, it's where the frame is divided into a grid of nine equal parts using two horizontal and two vertical lines. Composition is the arrangement of visual elements within the frame to create a visually appealing and meaningful image. The person responsible for camerawork on a film production is the cinematographer. They work closely with the director to visually capture the story and create the desired look and feel of the film. An example of a famous cinematographer in Roger Deakins. He made the films "Blade Runner 2049" in 2017 and "No Country for Old Man" in 2007. My team and I develop camerawork skills to create our film to be experts in filming and completely our film successfully.
Reflection Paragraph
My team and I took these pictures in the school library, near the vending machines, and the cafeteria. Taking these pictures was really easy because we had already planned what we were going to take pictures of and how we were going to do them. Between Jane I, Paul T, and myself we would switch who was being the person taking the pictures and who was the person getting their pictures taken. We used Jane I’d phone since their camera was better than Paul Ts and mines. I would say that I’m an expert on the assignment because it’s fairly simple to take pictures that take no longer than 5 minutes and I learned how to match pictures to each different storyline in our storyboard.
