Check out this YouTube video for further enlightenment about cinematic techniques; this will help with the following exercise:
What to do? :
1.____Read through the cinematic techniques. Underline key points for each term.
In groups of three, experience the following:
2.____Roll up a piece of paper. Simulate a long shot. What is its use?
3.____Reduce your paper lens to simulate a medium shot.
4.____Reduce your “lens’ again for the purpose of a close-up.
5.____Experiment further with camera angles and camera movements with your “paper lens”.
6.____Create a triple entry vocabulary template on dot-matrix or loose-leaf paper. The most important frame (the 3rd box on the right) will be a picture of how the “shot” would look.
7. Only do this for “Shots and Framing”, “Camera Angles”, and “Camera Movements”.
8.Maybe, pick a scene from “The Stolen Party” and illustrate it using the various camera shots, framing, angles and movements ( how will you illustrate movement?---try dotted lines ------) (15 terms). Or go online and find examples of these techniques to draw from to illustrate the terms.
*Each student is responsible for doing a triple entry vocabulary for the 15 terms: “Shot” thru “Boom/Crane” We will have a quiz on these terms Wednesday, and you can use this reference (the triple vocabulary of your own making) to complete this quiz.
a.______Read the “Learning Focus” on page 142.
b. ______Complete Activity 2.17
VI. Homework: Read Animal Farm, pgs. V-XXVII.
a. Textbook Check will be ongoing. ( I am checking: pgs. 89, 90, 91, 92, Mark the text, 94, Mark the text/Notes, 104, 105, 106, 107, Mark the text 110-115), 118-119, 121.
*For extra credit ( Honors must do) (worth 2 assignments), make a collage that is made up of pictures from magazines ( these would be from advertisements). Glue the cut-out pictures onto a piece of construction paper. Find pictures that illustrate “shots and framing”, “camera angles”, and “camera movement”. Label and caption them ( explain what the picture cut-out exemplifies). Make this presentable.
