Hello I’m Omare and welcome back to another blog. First day of filming  was amazing. I was able to get a good 10 seconds of my commercial done. I was able to do my first scene where I had my self viewing a highlight from Micheal Jordan. I filmed a wide shot. A wide shot, also called a long shot or a full shot, is a shot that shows the subject within their surrounding environment. A wide shot tells the audience who is in the scene, where the scene is set, and when the scene takes place. Then I was able to film a zoom shot getting a close up on the highlight. A zoom shot is when the focal length of a camera lens is adjusted to give the illusion of moving closer or further away from the subject. Zoom shots are done with a zoom lens, which have variable focal shots. Next week I hope to edit. Also I plan to finish my commercial. I’m going to do a scene where it shows a closeup of my shoes. Then I plan to reenact the highlight that was being viewed in the video. Then I hope to get a back and forth shot with me and the original highlight. Then I hope to end it off with the Jordan brand logo. I already know the hardest part of all this is probably the editing. Editing is the process of putting a film together–the selection and arrangement of shots and scenes. But to sum it all up. I really enjoyed first day and can’t wait for the next.

                                                                Research Blog      Welcome back to another blog. Today I will be doing research on the music video Basketball by Kurtis Blow. This is probably the most famous song written about the sport of basketball. Kurtis is a huge fan, and wanted to pay tribute. The song was recorded and released in 1984. The idea of the song came from Kurtis Blow's wife. Kurtis wanted to make a song that had never been made before so his wife suggested that he make a song about basketball. The music uses various lighting to have a bright positive mood. The music video also uses various jump cuts. One instance of this is when the song goes from Kurtis singing to then jump cuts to a scene of someone dunking the basketball. In filmmaking, a jump cut is an edit t...

                                                      Genre Research Blog Comedy Common camera angles used in comedy may consist of a close up shot. Sometimes after a character tells a joke there's often a close up shot of the characters facial expression. A close up shot In filmmaking, television production, still photography, and the comic strip medium, a close-up or close-up is a type of shot that tightly frames a person or object. Close-ups are a common type of shot, along with medium and long shots. The eye level angle is another camera angle used in comedies. This angle is achieved by positioning the camera at the subject's eye level in the frame. This angle is frequently complementary to the standard shot, somewhere near what the human eye sees. This will be the most commonly used shot in dramas, sitcoms, and comedies, among other things. In ...
