Today’s Plan:
- Review the Kalman Project
- LAC Interview Project is Taking Shape
- Reviewing the Interview Projects
- Rest of Year Schedule
Kalman Project
Just a quick review.
- First, here is my notes on the project
- Second, here is your notes on the project
- I am stipulating that the length of this project should be 4-5 minutes (5 is a hard cap)
The Kalman project should reflect all of our previous work on cinematography.
- Shot length
- Opening shot
- Sequence grammar (wide, mid, close, mid)
- Lighting / use of contrast
- Color
- Rule of thirds
- Head room
- Montage
Additionally, I’d like you to layer multiple audio layers:
- Dialogue / Narration
- Wild sounds and/or ambient sounds (see Scrhoeppel)
- Music (intro? outro? montage?)
