Rule of thirds

1. The camera work allows for the young black gentleman in frame to really be a prime focus of the image with a secondary focus of what he is doing

2. The audience should feel happy seeing the man smile as he reads a book interested in what he is reading

Deep Focus

1. This photo allows to get a good facial analysis of who this humble young man allowing to see the demeanor of his face establishing character

2. The audience should feel understanding of who this is and how they are feeling within the moment

Shallow focus

1. The photo allows to capture the background while keeping an emphasis on the person in the photo seeing the mood in the setting he's in

2. This allows the audience to feel a sense of immersion seeing the character and the setting allowing to feel the appropriate emotions within the setting

Focus pull

1. The structure of the camera allows to capture a dual focus of one character to another that has more interesting movements

2. This video makes the audience feels funny because its funny seeing a kid in the background doing a random dance behind a very serious looking young gentleman

Standard Focus

1. This image structure a concrete photo of my humble young friend Ethan seeing his goofy front to the camera

2. The picture makes the audience feel funny seeing a goofy face focused on by the camera and interested in why he's looking that way

I didn't like the ending, the sudden stop and no real emotion conveyed on the characters face felt off not really making me want to know what happens further. The mis en scene of the opener also didn't feel right. nothing seemed confusing the opener was straight forward and easy to understand. I suggest to make the movie opener better they should make the lighting a little bit darker in the therapy room and change up the ending a little to make the therapist seem a little bit more emotion regarding the girls case. https://youtu.be/eX32iRuSMvc In the opening film above I liked the subtle music playing in the background it helped me understand the genre of the movie. I didn't really like the lack of depth with the characters especially since its romance genre I would've liked more dialogue. I wasn't really interested in the rest of the mo...

peer review evaluation

This week, my group went over the peer reviews written by our classmates to asses their feedback and determine if there are any suggestions we'd like to implement into our final cut. Peer review #1 (by Johansen Rey) :https://johansenrey.blogspot.com/2025/04/title-sequence.html My favorite part of this opening sequence is definitely the ending and the editing done while the surgeon rips his face mask.

If the film had included some lowkey lighting to help add to the ominous atmosphere of the scene, it would have been better. The setting would have also been a bit more unsettling and worrisome for the audience. I do think it looked like an opening sequence as ...
