Reflection: 2/15/11

Reflection:
What new information has been introduced?
Previously, because I had not taken film, so I did not know much of the terminology.

I learned about the different distance shots, ranging from the extreme long shot, through to the extreme close-up distance, as demonstrated in the above slideshow. I also learned about the various camera angles, such as the birds-eye view, the high and low angles, or the dutch angle, as followed below.

This terminology will help in the future, as it is important in the entire film unit. Film is based around cameras, and I need to know what the names of the shots mean. By using this terminology in the future in film, I can enhance my learning.
Evaluation
How can I improve my knowledge?
Since I had not previously taken film, I need to increase my own film knowledge. Aside from the distance and angle terminology, there are others such as the camera movement terminology. I can do look up more information in film books and personal research as it would help me in the future, especially in the unit, upping by marks, knowledge and other areas in regards to film.
