Blog Post #48: Storyboard - Scene 1

I made a storyboard depicting the introduction/title sequence. I am going to create more storyboards for scenes that come after that don't include the interview.

Top left: this shows a package at the front door, centered on top of a welcome mat. I drew the tripod I am going to use to show the overhead angle. 

Top right: there is a pan from the front door to show the top of the table. I used a pan to "reveal" and build anticipation for what is inside the package.

Bottom left: I am going to center the package in the middle of the frame with an overhead shot using a tripod. It will have the same angle as the top left drawing on the storyboard.

Bottom right: I want to build anticipation by having a scene before the final reveal. The last clip of this sequence has the package open showing it filled with different types of clothes. I am going to use different patterns, colors, and clothing types to show that every package is different but also to make it visually appealing.


Before I created the storyboard here are some examples I researched:

Blog Post #1: Final Project Idea

Image
For my final project I will be doing a documentary about fashion. Each episode will be based on something that influences fashion. Some ideas I have is pop culture, designer brands, culture, politics, celebrities, and music. I can look at magazines and movies for more references. I want my documentary to have a fun and creative style. Pop culture : there are many articles online about how pop culture and fashion are connected, and I can use these articles for research. Designer brands : top brands and designers are known for starting fashion trends and influencing pop culture. I can do an episode about how these iconic brands started trends. Examples: Vivienne Westwood, Balenciaga Culture : every culture has their traditional clothing, so I have many different topics and ideas to choose from on an episode about culture. Politics : political movements and ideologies have inspired fashion subcultures. Celebrities : similar to pop culture and designer brands, famous people have always inf...

Blog Post #8: Preliminary Exercise

I used my cat as the posed actor for my video clips. Pan: The pan shot I used was to introduce the posed actor. It could be used as suspense to slowly begin to show the subject you are recording. It also allows the audience to see the background/environment that surrounds the actor. I could use this both on people (interviews) or when showing a wider view of a scene in my documentary.   Zoom: The zoom has a similar effect as the close up shot because it is showing my actor's expressions and close up details. It can also be used for the background/environment. It also makes the audience pay attention to a certain aspect you want because it is directing their attention to something. Close Up: A close up shot on actors is used to show their expressions and emotions. Because I used it on my cat, you could clearly see her expressions and the details of her face. This could be a good camera shot to use in a nature documentary to show close up details that you want the audience to notice....

Blog Post #5: Documentary Styles

Documentary M odes Expository documentaries involve extensive research. They include interviews, visuals, and narration that support the argument. Their purpose is to educate and explain. This is the basic and most common documentary mode. Observation documentaries are shot without any narration, commentary, and the viewer is left to interpret it in their own way. It is shot like a "fly on the wall" where the audience views the entire documentary without interruptions. Participatory documentaries have the filmmaker participating in the scenes or interviews while on screen. This includes an equal amount of capturing the interviewer and interviewee. Reflexive mode documentaries use interviews, narration, and visual metaphors to explore the relationship between the filmmaker and audience. A cinematographer will shoot behind-the-scenes style footage of the entire film making process, including editing, interviewing, and post-production. Poetic mode documentaries focus on emotions...
