The activity assigned was to create a presentation of a visual story about an inanimate object. The purpose was to be able to showcase different types of shots within a total of 15 photos.
I approached this task by first creating a story that my photos could follow along to. My story involved a highlighter as the protagonist who falls off a desk and has to find their way back to its owner. I took photos at different angles and distances to get the perfect shot. I organized how the story would include the required shots and how to make it relevant to the story. I then chose the best photos and organized them in chronological order. After compiling the collection of pictures that both tell the story and include the use of different shots, I wrote a short description of the purpose of using a specific shot or angle beside the corresponding cut onto a slide presentation.
I think I did well on composing the story and shots together, but I could’ve done a better job on the portrayal of specific shots. Using a small object, it was difficult to establish the medium and close-up points of the subject. On my future projects, I can improve on ensuring that a close-up and a medium shot are each differentiable.
