Classmates Commentary

Classmate Blog - Mahathi 

The Low Angle created by Mahathi is one of my favorite examples of this angle because as he describes it, this angle is used to make the statue look like it has power, and this is exactly how I feel when looking at a statue at such a low angle.
The establishing shot created by Mahathi is also a great example of how to introduce a setting, The establishing shot that he created make me understand that the setting is a highly active library with productive students working together to understand the assignment given to them.
The two shot created by Mahathi is also an amazing example due to the frame of the video being at a perfect angle and because the two characters are very visible to the audience. This two shot helps me understand that these two characters are reading and or studying something of their interest, this also helps me get an understanding of the personality of who the characters are.

Classmate Blog - Dyanna
The Close up Shot created by Dyanna is a well performed version of this shot because it shows the person or characters facial features and what they might feel during a scene. This shot makes me feel some sort of suspense to what the person might be seeing or what they are reacting to.
The Dutch shot is a well established shot that is effective the way Dyanna used it in her video, her Dutch angle made me feel intimidated due to the dramatic angle and how its lower a little bit to establish power.
Finally the Two Shot angle is a great way to show what position two characters are in and Dyanna made a great example on how the perform a Two Shot angle. This shot made me feel like the people are having a great time arm wrestling and are enjoying each others company.

Peer Reviews of First Cut Movie Opener Blogpost

What specific technical elements of the film opening did you like? *      I like the low key lighting of the entire video because it sets up the mysterious and sort of fearful tone of this piano player getting attacked by a threat in his car. Another thing that I liked is the camera angles for the piano. This included a close up shot of the strings, this gives a feeling of musicality and wonder as the main person we focus on is playing the instrument. The next angles that I like is a upwards tilt towards the characters face, because it show us how this person dresses as he plays the piano, and it shows how professional he is with his hobby. The next shot that I liked is the pan from our character to the mysterious and dangerous threat that is looming In the back of the car. This scene would then transition into a drone-shot of the car as it slowly pulls back the shot, this is done so that the audience could have another feeling of mystery because we are left on a cliff ha...
