LECTURES

Week 3:
This class taught us about plot segmentation and storytelling. How do we write a narrative properly and what is the difference between story and plot. We then did a small exercise where we watched a short film and dissected what the plot of the story is into bullet points.

Week 4:
We continued on to recap our previous lesson about plot and story. We then further discussed about 3 act structures - the beginning, middle, and end. The beginning would be the setup, the middle is where conflict or a confrontation occurs, and the ending is the resolution. Then we learned about sound in film such as speech and sound effects, as well as music and dubbing over videos.

Week 5:
In this class we learned about storyboarding and the process to how someone can storyboard a scene. There are so many different angles and shots that can be used. There are also some rules that need to be followed in order for the scenes to flow together in a way that makes sense.

Week 6:
For this class we further learn about using the program Adobe Premiere Pro and the settings that could be used for our videos.

Week 7:
We begin our preparations for our final project by attending stop motion class.

Week 8:
Independent learning week.

Week 9:
Preparations for final project, as well as other exercises to complete. The class is used to gain feedback about our proposals.

Week 10:
Again, this class was only to obtain feedback for our proposals. Further preparations for final project are made.

Week 11:
Public holiday.

Task 2: Zach King videos


Zach King is a popular social media influencer that has been creating videos of his 'magic tricks' online since the days of Vine, an application that consisted of 6 second long videos. He's extremely well known for how smooth and professionally he edits his videos to make it seem like magic is truly happening in real life.

My personal favorites from him are in this video, during 1:22, 2:48 and 6:23.


The first one is fun to me since he twists a shirt around to reveal a cat after, the transition from one to the other was very smooth and makes me want to learn how to do that.
As for the second one, I like the simplicity of his trick here, it's easy and straight to the point.
The third one is a cool illusion type trick that makes us think the video is paused when it actually isn't.
