Professional Project Review

In this video a young High school student, named Micheala Gertner is being interviewed about weight lifting. In her family weight lifting is very common, her sisters and he father compete. Although, she wieght lifts she is still your typical teenager. (CNN Montano)
The video is primarily close ups with other shots to fill in the time. A lot of shots are repeated to show the full action. Most of these shots are very well framed and everything flows together. For example, when she was lifting weights the action started with a close up and ended with the exact same close up.
The story told was the story of a teenage girl who participates in an unusual sport, it was told through an interview. One element from this video I would apply to my own work is the amount of close up there in comparison to the other shots. One thing that is applied in this video that I already learned is framing.
Based on the work I have seen the creator did a great job on framing he shots. The creator also did a great job on making the story flow together. However, the creator could improve on using less close ups and becoming more creative with the types of shots. By doing these things it would dramatically improve the video because it would create a different version and make it more interesting.
Overall the video was very well framed and creatively shot. I would be more interested in it if it was more about how she go into weight lifting and what goes into a daily work out. In general it needed to be researched more. Some of the shots needed to be longer. In conclusion the video was good. Micheala Gertner Video

1st Semester Reflection

This year I gained many strengths. Some of my strengths include project management, cooperation, and leadership. I have strong project management because I get my assignments done on time and they are quality packages. My cooperation skills are strong too because I communicate well with Haley and calm her down when she's stressed out. I have great leadership skills because I can lead people without being bossy. Also my leadership skills have helped me finish my work on time and work well with others. However, I have a few weaknesses like staying on task and being proactive. My plan to become more proactive is by helping out with more things after school and helping set up the broadcast. I will also sit in on the game day broadcasts and learn how to work the equipment. I will stay on task by working on my portfolio and my blogs. Overall this semester was very successful. I learned how to work well with others and what it takes to be a strong leader. I also learned how to be a go...

Saul Bass Poster

This is my own Saul Bass based poster. I decided to create my poster using Snow White. For this project you need to have 2-3 elements and 2-3 other colors beside black and white. Though out creating this picture I learned how to image trace and create a silhouette. In my poster the 2 elements I'm using are snow white and the apple. I chose those 2 elements because they are pretty important to the movie. The reason I chose red was because it balanced the white and the black.
