Early in this year, I learned the importance of using certain angles to help make your messege more clear.  You can see that in my first film, I didn't really follow a certain shot list because there were certain clips that didn't seem like they were supposed to be there. I realize now that if we had a certain planned shot list then it would have made it a lot better. In my second project, I learned how to overlay and insert clips so that they will be placed properly for the film. You can see this is the cyberbullying video we made. I found this quite difficult to understand because of all the complicated directions and understandings but after a while it sort of explained itself.  Another concept that was hard to get used to was over the shoulder shots. I was hard to wrap my head around filming someones questions and responses all in one clip. Filming without having the feel for the shot you're filming felt weird, but in the end it all made sense. I believe I used most of the things I've learned in this class on my final video.  So in a way the final video served it's purpose.  It made me remember and utilize everything I've learned and made me squish it all in to one film.  Thank you for making me a better film maker. I can't wait to do this in the future.
