Today we will be creating a video which main task will be attracting employers to our brand.
I want to be a freelance photographer in the future therefore I did an advert for people that might want to employ me as a photographer for their event.
1. I chose the format called Jobseeker, and started with editing the photo and the name. I also changed the font to 'Oswald' because I liked the simple design of it.
2. Then I changed the background for the second slide to a top down photo of camera gear on a wood. I liked the wood theme in this shot so I continued it in the rest of the slides. I putted the captions on the left hand side so they would fit in better.
3. Then I changed the colour palette for the count down and applied it to the rest of it, including the first slide.
4. Then I started editing the first reason. I changed the background photo to a man editing a photo on his laptop. It was important for me that the photos I chose had some greeny, woody elements in it, so they matched the aesthetic I had in mind. Then I added a very transparent and barely visible background to the captions so they were easier to read. I am a slowreader, therefore I am a good determinant of how much text can be on one slide - If I can read it in the time given, almost everyone can.
5. I repeated the same steps in the rest of the reasons, keeping in mind the aesthetic I chose.
6. In the last slide I added the background photo of a woman in some green scenery calling on her phone. I added my mail and a link to my blog and relocated the captions to the left side so they fit better in this composition.
7. Last thing to do was choosing the music for my advert. I chose the 'Funky Oak' tune. I chose not only because of the thematic title, I also felt that slower, and less happy music was more suitable.
Great video and process here - would be great to send to employers - a couple of spelling mistakes that need fixing but otherwise very professional - well done
In the last part of my research connected to this term's major project I will be looking closely into different dream sequences in cinema. I will analyse how different filmmakers are visualizing them in their own visual style. I will be looking at four films in which we can either see a dream sequence or the majority of the film is a dream. The four films being, ' Spellbound ' (1945) directed by Alfred Hitchcock, ' Inception ' (2010) made by Christopher Nolan, ' Anima ' (2019) created by Paul Thomas Anderson, and finally ' Wild Strawberries ' (1957) directed by Ingmar Bergman. Spellbound (1945) Directed by Alfred Hitchcock Spellbound (1945) dream sequence Probably the most recognizable dream sequence in film history, and for good reason. The scenography created for this sequence was done by Salvador Dalí, Spanish surrealist artist whose one of a kind visual style can be easily recognized in every frame of this scene. While the style does not appeal...
You could say that the origin of sequential photography, as important by itself, is also the origin of cinema. Not the Lumière brothers, but Eadweard Muybridge can be recognized as a pioneer of film. Edweard Muybridge was an English photographer. His fame started when in 1868 Eadweard photographed Yosemite Valley in California, but today he is famous for initiating a new photography trend which is our today's topic. Sequential Photography 1 Sequential imagery is a photographic technique of taking many following pictures in a short period of time. It can be used for a variety of reasons, ranging from showing movement of someone or something to telling a compelling story. An actual origin story of the pictures above is interesting in itself. Eadweard Muybridge wanted to prove his friend that horses during gallop are pulling or their legs at the same time. Because of this trivial bet we now can enjoy films and TV series. Sequential photography 2 First set of my sequential photos I too...
As of now I completed three days of shooting, and shot around 30%-35% of the needed footage. It takes more time than I anticipated but I think I will finish everything on time. I cannot really shoot outside during the weekend since there is a lot of people on the streets at night during these days, so I have to go out during the weekdays. It slows the production a bit since now I have most of the interior shots done, so the only things I need to shoot are outside. I also understood quickly that making everything by myself is far more difficult and complicated than I anticipated. There are some shots which I imagined in my mind that are not looking as good when I shoot it. Nevertheless, focusing on the positive I have finished shooting and editing first page of the script. The entire editing process with the actual edited part of the film at the end. You can view it here. This part ranges from the beginning of the script to the first scene on the second page. Shooting around one to thre...
