From A to B

      Recently in e-Communication we were partnered up to make a video where we would be trying to get  from one place to another, in this project I took all the footage while my partner walked form the second floor of the school to our courtyard. We used the 6 shot system and attempted to ry to use he rule of thirds, though I don't think that went well. But overall the project was actually proved to be fun to do and in the end i actually liked how it turned out.
      
The Process
      Getting the camera and stand for it was easy, using it was harder. Unlike in the other video I took for the six shot system, in where we had normal stand the stand that we had in this project was slightly damaged making it harder to stand up correctly. 
      We started at my locker, which was conveniently on the second floor. Writing a quick scribbled note, my partner acted to be surprised then we began the process of walking down the halls and stairs all the way to the courtyard. Getting to the courtyard was harder than you might've imagined since the doors were at first locked, leaving me and my partner on a small journey to find a custodian.
      
What I Learned
      If anything I learned that when making a video like this, it's better to make 50% of it close-ups/extreme close-ups. This makes the video more interesting in a way. Besides that we still used Premiere and the same camera's as last time so I didn't actually learn much this time.

What Could Have Gone Better
      Some of the shots I actually didn't like at all. There's this one shot of going down the stairs, but the camera was angled wrong and it paned the shot. I didn't notice until editing the video, so I'm really annoyed at that shot. And in another shot you can see he camera stand in the background. Giving the chance to that again I would be more careful of the camera and what's in the shot.
