Three Shot Sequences

Sequencing is a group of 3 shots or clips that are similar to each other. Sequencing has interesting angles and they are usually in a wide, medium, and close shots. Most people use this in videos so they don't have to take one long video of the same thing. This makes the different shots or clips more interesting. Sequencing is a very helpful technique because it can help you get nice and well shot pictures or videos. More information found here.

Practice Story Reflection

In my G.T. class we were making practice videos so we could get ready for our real project. This practice project included interviews the interviews were about a class mate that loved to do something or was good at something. My team was made up of four sixth grades Makena Kahananui, Nahele Keale, and Kalani Young and Me Jasmine Laplante. We also needed B-Roll because our story was Nahele likes exercising we get footage of Nahele doing jumping jacks and squats ect. Nahele tried her best in her B-Roll and interview.

Our team had a hard time working together but we had lots of fun. Our team lost our interview footage the first time so we were behind but we were determined to get it done. My team was feeling like we were going to get disqualified but we still worked as hard as we could. Two of us worked on our transcription templet and the other two were working on the video in FCPX. I think that we did a good job working together but we got through it.

At the end my group tried our hardest in the last 10 minutes. We didn't think that we could make it or even finish the transcription templet. All of us were nervous but we finished the templet and the video, with only 2 minutes left we imported it but the importing took 5 extra minutes. So our team got disqualified. My team was talking and we are happy that we finished even though we got disqualified it was still a fun project. this was only a practice story we still have our real one to come more fun.
