In your journalism notebook, please comment on the following article:
Think fast! Crazy job interview questions
Now answer several crazy interview questions in your notebook. Please note that you will be writing as if you are giving a video response. Do NOT go overboard or have long answers.
I will state the questions orally.
Activity
Review the following Link: and discuss any that you find confusing or discuss one that you find interesting and tell why.
Camera Shots
Journalism IiI
Camera Angles/ Movement
Students will identify important visual terms (such as long-shot, close-up, camera angle) that are used on television and in movies and begin to recognize that these angles/ movements affect meaning.
Camera Direction/ Angles
Students will review camera direction, angles, transitions and key elements via worksheets plan a video project.
Students will review two handouts on camera direction/ angles
Students will discuss a packet entitled: Lights, Camera, Action
Why is it important for students to be aware of camera-subject distance, perhaps before addressing any other aspect of movies and television?
Television is made up of hundreds and thousands of pictures, called shots, each of which must be carefully planned. The long shot, medium shot, and close-up (and many other camera-subject distances such as the medium long shot and extreme close-up) are the basis of editing in movies and on television.
Without these shots, the person who edits the movie, TV show, or commercial would have nothing to work with. Editing, in nearly all cases, is the combining of long shots, medium shots, and close-ups to create an effective visual presentation. Camera-subject distance is the basis for visual editing.
It is essential for students to have a clear understanding of camera-subject distance before they begin to analyze television programs and movies and before they begin to create their own productions on video.
