Video Shooting

Last Wednesday our professor told us to create a 60 minute script for our video that will be part our midterm examination. So we came in school with our script, before we shoot our video he shown us a video which contain everything that we should know in shooting a video. 

This day our professor taught us the meaning of the abbreviation of the different terms in video such as HD which means High Definition, SD for Standard Definition, Full HD for Full High Definition, CF Compact Flash, SD Card Secure Digital and the meaning of the SDHC Secure Digital High Capacity. He also taught us that when we bought an SD card we should test it and it supposed to be a 10 class. on the video that we watched it is mentioned there that Full HD is the one that is being used in broadcasting.


Before the class end our professor told us our deliverable next meeting. And that is our video, and we need it to be uploaded in vimeo.

Alphabet Photography

This Wednesday our topic was all about Alphabet photography. Our professor asked us to go outside and find letters that is a natural letter made of some thing unusual. At first I got a hard time doing it because, it seems like there is no letter and yet I do not loose hope I was able to pass the collage which consists of 26 letters. Here are my photos of the alphabet.

Alphabet photography is not easy to do. But if if you have courage and trust into yourself everything is possible.

Portrait Photography

Today is Wednesday and it's Visual Communication class again and today's topic was Portrait photography.
Our professor taught us the different kind of style in taking pictures with light and how to control it.

There are four lighting patterns:

SPLIT

Portrait Photography is a very hard thing to because a photographer needs to be in command he gives his model some directions and of course it is also being smart in controlling the light and what lighting pattern to be used.
