Camera Shots Quiz

For this assignment, we were asked to choose an inanimate object and put together 15 shots to create a story. Ten of the shots had to include ones that we learned in class, the other five were up to my partner and I to pick. 

We decided that the easiest object to utilise in our project would be our water bottles. Since we were in a classroom, we believed it was best to create a story that was common in school. We discussed this and decided to use bullying as our topic. We used various shots and angles to convey a message and the emotions that came with it into our pictures. One of our water bottles was bigger than the other, so we used the larger bottle to represent the bully, as this displays a difference in power and dominance between the two characters. We also used more stationary tools like scissors and coloured pens to represent the principal and other students, respectively. This advances the plot of our scene, eventually bringing a closure to our story. 

As I reflect on this project, I believe my partner and I did a good job at conveying emotions through the shots. I also believe we chose the right shots for each scene, which in turn helped develop the plot. Some ways I could've improved was by creating more accurate shots. I believed that if we utilised our classroom space better by stepping back or bending down towards the floor would've helped us deliver the message slightly better.
