Photoshoot for Digipak

 The shoot was carried out in my house and a park. At my home, the green screen was hung in a rather innovative way since I didn't have access to a green screen stand. I folded a long thread several times to make it thick after which I sewed one corner of the green screen with it. I did the same with the other corner and a point between both these corners of the green screen. These threads were then spun around three bricks which were placed on the edge of the roof, allowing the green screen to hang from the threads. 



 The aim was to capture the fun, appealing and talented side of my actor. Thereafter, I directed him to make silly faces, jump, pose with his guitar, etc. 


After this, we went to a park where I made his hang from a monkey bar to take his upside-down picture. My friend held the green screen behind him.


And of course, we took other fun pictures!

Red talks

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ICYXheEBoM&feature=youtu.be   With only a few pictures, recordings and some information available, I narrated and edited a video in a few hours for a friend for her project. This was a new experience for me in which I had to manage everything under pressure within a certain time frame. This equipped me with time management and organizational skills (since I had to organize the available content in a chronological order to make it clear and understandable).

Research on Genres

I want to create a music video following the comedy and romance genre. To create such a text, I looked into the romance and comedy genre conventions that I could follow. These are some of the important points I noted down.  ROMANCE: COMEDY: I came across a table that showed the types of comedy. To my surprise, visual comedy (through editing) was not included.

Dignity Day Video

Today we celebrated dignity day in our school and being the head of filmmaking society I made a video about it. The video started off with a fun fast-paced soundtrack to create suspense and interest. I added text with a simple question, in the start, to encourage engagement with the audience; which is ironic since this video can be considered a part of hot media (which demands little interaction from the viewer/user).  Two interviews were added to give the video a documentary feel.  A smooth audio transition from the diegetic and non-diegetic sounds of the interviewee and background score respectively to an 'Urdu poetry' was made. The poetry was accompanied by slow-motion shots of students and lower staff members to give a dramatic effect.   https://youtu.be/kzJ9UjASq3c
