Three Shot Sequences

When creating a great video story you want to have shots in sequence so that the your audience wont lose interest. Especially if you're just showing images that don't go with the story or fit in right the audience want to feel like there apart of the video. If you were making a video on what i do on the weekends it would take way too long to show a video of your whole weekend so that why we put everything in sequences so you understand whats going on and it doesn't take up too much time.

 Here, in this video it show a three shot sequence so it starts off at a wide shot, a medium shot, and then a close up shot of me picking up my binder. This is better than just one shot of me grabbing my binder because its like you get to see me in different spots around me.     

Composition Techniques

Turning Your videos and pictures good to great composition video techniques will do the job.

The composition techniques that can be used are rule of thirds, framing, unusual angles, and leading lines.

Rule of thirds helps make an image more dynamic and interesting. It also creates a balance to the image or video without it being so busy.

Framing is composing a frame around your subject this will show depth, gives emphasis to the subject, and grabs viewer's attention. Some examples of creating a frame can be doorways, windows, tunnels, and tree branches. Taking pictures at eye can get boring taking pictures to the next level like finding unusual angles some people want a different perspective. Getting above or below the subject, tilting the camera right or left, getting super close to your object or farther away.

Unusual Angles is my favorite because you can take a picture or a video either down low, up high, to the sides, and make it different from many pictures where its just eye level were it can get boring.

Leading Lines is when you have lines that are leading to the main subject of your video or the picture or you can say its a path for the eye. Some examples for leading lines can be roadways, a river, bridges, and a window.

All About Me

     Hello, my name is Nahele Keale, I'm 12 yrs. old and was born on October, 1, 2001 at Castle Memorial Hospital on the Island of Oahu. I lived on Oahu for the first year of my life until I moved to the island of Kauai. My mom and dad didn't want to raise me on Oahu so we moved to a the beautiful, tropical, island of Kauai.

 

     I have no brothers or sisters but I do have 2 Australian Shepard's, 2 sheep and used to have around 50 or more chickens!  The chickens are all gone, but we may be getting more later. My mom is a nurse and my dad is working in Alaska.

I was in  Kapa'a Elementary from Kindergarten to the 5th grade.  This school was a great school with strict but nice teachers who taught me a lot. This is my first year in the G.T. Program as a 6th Grader in Kapaa Middle School.  I really enjoy this school and I don't ever plan on leaving. I'm either going to Kapaa or Kamemeha for High School. I heard a lot of good things about Kamehameha and hope too get in if I go.

   Once I am finished with high school I would like to go to a college where I can learn to become an archeologist. Ive been wanting to do this later on because it seems very interesting to dig up ancient artifacts, sculptures, skeletons of bodies and learn about their culture, there life, and how they died. Especially since it involves traveling which is also one of my dreams to do. Traveling is what everybody should do at a certain time in your life and try different food, languages, old buildings, and much more.

Practice Profile Story

  The purpose of our practice story was to understand what we were doing for the Hiki No project. This gave us a chance to get to know the Cameras, Lava Mike, to use final cut pro for editing our videos, and to critique the videos so we know what we should and shouldn't do for the " Elders Words of Wisdom" interview. The camera that we were using were very High Tech and had lots of buttons that I had never used on a camera before and now me and my group would know what to do and weren't lost. Lava Mike weren't used in any projects of my first year in the G.T. Program so it made it really exciting to be using something new.

  The reason we all chose me was because they knew that I had a hobby of exercising so they decided to do that. Me and them thought this would be a good topic for a practice story. It would help us later on the bigger project. They also knew that I liked talking and I would love to get interviewed just in case I might get interviewed in the future. Then we thought exercising is something great to talk about because it so good for you and it makes you stronger mentally, physically, and you have a chance of living a long life.
