Camera Shots

 Welcome back to your fav bog of the week!



Since you all enjoyed the last blog so much I have returned this blog with more fun and pictures. In this blog I will be discussing the different types of camera shots discussed in my media studies class.


- Establishing Shot

-Close up

-Mid-Shot

-Long Shot


Establishing Shot


An establishing shot in simple words is known to be the starting or first shot in a scene. These types of shots have used the set the location and place where a scene took place in. It also demonstrates the mood given at the time which helps the viewer get a general understanding of what the scene is about in general.


Close Up


A close-up shot is exactly what it sounds like, it consists of a shot that's taken of a person's face which takes up most of the picture in a scene. The shot is supposed to make an object look bigger and in more depth as it is a close-up image of something.


Mid- Shot


A mid-shot is known to be a shot that shows part of the character in greater detail. It typically contains a character's profile from the waist up, and is known to be one of the most common shots seen in most films. This shot is known to focus on a character in a scene specifically while also including the place in which the scene actually takes place in.

Long shot 




A long shot is known to be a shot that captures a character(s) from head to toe. The character(s) is known to become the man focus in this shot but is still focused on the scene in which this is taking place This shot is meant to set the scene for the characters involved.


Overview:

As this blog comes to an end here is a quick sum up of what was performed this week in Media Studies. This week we learned about something called Camera Shots. This means that we discussed the shots that are taken in numerous frames for a certain amount of time. We learned the importance they have on films and movies and the importance they hold in portraying feelings, moods, and ideas while watching them. As a class, we individually practiced taking these shots ourselves with our classmates at school and used each of these pictures taken to demonstrate how we understood what camera shots are and present them in this week's blog.




Thank you guys for tuning into this week's blog, stay tuned for the next blogs to come!

Hey guys, we are back with another blog for this weeks blog.  In this weeks blog we will be reviewing and going in more depth with the table of contents for the fashion magazine. In the previous blogs we were working on the breakdowns of what are included in the Table of Contents for magazines. In this weeks I will review them in more detail and really go in depth to explain what they consist of and how they are constructed and put inside of magazines. To begin with, the purpose of a table of contents in magazines and other scriptures in general are included to help readers find their way in the magazine or other document that they are reviewing. People also use the table of contents in order what part or area in the magazine they should read or look at. Now on to the table of contents above, they are normally positioned in different ways depending on the magazine or article you are viewing but right now we will be unpacking the layout of this table of contents in specific.
