Response to Aesthetics of Video

From the reading, what I learn is the different ways of framing can create various meanings about human actions, bodies and expression. It is clear and straightforward. It illustrates the relationship between human and environment that captures in the frame. With the framing, good management and preparation will allow smooth cut and transition between each clip. In comparison, angles is to use to illustrate the images. It allows the viewer to understand the dominant subject in the film, which relates to the sizes of the subjects that are presented. Lens is also another element that needs to take into consideration. Lens matters more when it is shooting people's faces then landscapes.

The camera movement more critical for a short video shooting. Video shooting does not have the same equipment that film can have. The shaking and instability of the camera will affect the visions. Normally, when we watch videos, the shaking will cause the viewers to feel the dizziness, which will damage the enjoyment. Tripod and dolly are suggestions to decrease the dizziness. But it will also eliminate the objects and environment that presents in the film. So how to manage and express clearly is  challenging. I do not have the experience of experimenting with all the techniques that are introduced, but as I start looking into some of the clips. They are all included inside.

The idea is to use the cardboard to create a different point of view, but at the same time contains all the techniques that are described in the essay. It asks us to see the world in a different point of view, which the background music also complies with the entire theme. I learn a lot from it.
