Different Uses of Camera Angles in:
Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2

This angle appears to be taken from a lower angle. It invokes excitement and a little bit of fear, as Drax is jumping straight into the monsters mouth.

This angle was taken from eye level. More specifically, a close up. You can see that Gamora is in awe from the sight of the planet she is on. This made me feel both serene and excited to see what the planet was going to look like.




This is a master shot. Although all of the characters are in the frame, this scene mainly focuses on Rocket and Quill going back and forth about who should fly the spaceship through the asteroid field ahead. It shows an internal conflict between both characters, which brings out a sense of annoyance in the viewer, as the cannot seem to agree.


         This is an establishing shot. It helps the viewer understand the beauty and importance ego, as this is where the majority of the movie takes place. It makes the viewer feel calm, as the planet appears very beautiful on the outside, and makes the viewer feel curious about the inside.

     This is a low angle shot of both 
Ego and Peter. Peter has just met his father which creates a feeling of suspense in the viewer. We begin to understand that since Ego is a Celestial, Peter shares part of this special ability.

This is a point of view shot. It shows what Rocket is looking at while trying to fly the ship. This confused me, as I do not understand what it is supposed to do.
This is a high angle shot. It helps you to see all the characters from a new perspective, creating a feeling of the characters no longer being larger than life.

Week 7- Editing

Image
 This week we continued to edit our film and finalize the background music. Since we did most of our editing last week, all that was left was to focus on adding the music which can be seen in the image below. Then, Theresa, Peter, and I looked over our opener one last time. Almost everything from last week remained the same. We had the same title, fonts and kept from adding any more visual effects or transitions, as it would disrupt the flow of the film.  For adding audio, we had to look up legalities for adding and uploading music on your computer then into iMovie, the editing app we used.  One of the problems we faced was uploading music that we liked and wouldn't be copyrighted. However, after watching tutorials we figured out how to do it.  This took us two class periods to figure out.

Week 6- Editing

Image
      This is what Theresa's screen looked like while editing. While Peter and I helped out, Theresa editing the main parts and added music.     These are different photos taken from all of us editing different parts of the movie opener. We all discussed what order the clips should go in and made sure they were all the same length.     We placed titles at the end of the movie opener to create a more suspenseful and dramatic atmosphere. We titled our opener "The Next Level," as it seemed fitting for highschool athletes who are signing onto be a part of the collegaint level. The best place for the title seemed to be in the center.          Some of the different video effects used were fade away, cross-dissolve, and cross blur.   Fadeaway was used most of the time because it provided a seamless transition into the next clip.           During the editing process, the decision was made to use ...

Initial Storyboard

Image
  Summary: This week, Theresa, Peter, and I began to outline what our film opening would look like by creating a storyboard. This will help us come up with a script and figure out when we should transition into the next scene. We all came up with the idea of our opener being based around a high school softball and baseball player, who will be played by Theresa and Peter. I will act as a college scout from FGCU, looking for them to play for the school at the next level. The purpose of this is to show what a high school athlete goes through when they are trying to play at the collegiate level.      The first scene is Theresa and Peter walking out to the dugout for practice. This shot will establish and set up the opener. Next, they will be in the dugout showing all the equipment they need for practice. Following this, Theresa and Peter will be throwing a ball back in forth to warm up, when they see me sitting in the bleachers wear an FGCU shirt and carrying a clipboard...
