Recording The First Parts of the Music Video

The first scene I needed to record was me sliding down a slide. Our music video is reflecting our pasts and one of the things I used to love to do was riding slides. I got home from school and walked over to the park in my neighborhood but the slide was a bit small. So I took my bike to the other park nearby and used those slides instead because they were bigger. I set up the camera and went down the slide. It took about 3 tries because the camera fell over twice. Once I got the video I saved it in google docs and went home to film the second scene. The second scene that needed to be filmed was me knocking on the door and my friend answering and me waving back to him. This scene also reflects back on days because when we were little kids and we visited each others houses. So to record the scene I had to wait for my mom to get home so she could record it for me. Once she got home I went outside and walked in and then waved and she got the shot. I saved it to google docs and then made a folder to combine all these for when we start editing. The next scene I needed to record was me looking off of a Ferris wheel. So one day our group got together and we went to Santa's Enchanted Forest which is a pretty big theme park that is only around this time of year. We waited in the line for the Ferris wheel for about 30 minutes. When we finally got on the ride we waited until we got stopped near the top and then we took the video. It took 2 tries because the first time max was in the shot on accident. Once we finished we went home and uploaded the video to the google docs folder. Well that's all for today. Logging off.

 The common camera angles in action:  Long shot: Artificially shortens the distance between two characters, tricking the viewer into thinking that the characters actually punch each other but the angle just makes it look like that. Wide shot: Used to establish the main characters in the movie but not the area surrounding them.  Low angle: Used to show how intimidating the villain is and how they are above all.  High angle: Used to show when the main hero is in a tough situation and losing, usually fights or big battles.  Establishing shot: Used to show the main area where the heroes/hero battles it out.  Common Costumes, Props, Setting, and Make-up:  Costume: The costumes in action films are what truly establish the character, some people don't even know the characters face but as soon as they see the suit/costume they immediately recognize them.  Props: Props are important in action films, whether it range from Thor's Hammer to Batman's Bata-rang...

 Common Camera Angles: High Angle: These shots are used in thriller films to give the effect that whatever is being looked down on appears to look powerless and vulnerable.  Tracking/panning: Used to make it look like one of the characters is being followed or being watched.

This can also make the audience feel weak and insignificant. Zoom: This gives a dramatic effect and helps to create suspense and fear of not knowing what's going to happen next.
