Chronography



After reading this article and viewing the images that Marey captured, write a reflection on what you think Marey's motion studies contributed to the development of the motion picture. What makes his work so interesting?

Marey's photography contributed to the development of motion picture because of his technique if taking "multiple successive images, usually on the same print"(Meier). Marey used a photographic gun which was able to shoot 12 frames per second which influenced the invention of motion pictures. His photos were able to show stills of movement in an order which showed kinetic motion and it helped later inventors to create motion pictures.

FINAL EXPERIENCE WORDCLOUD

If you had to pick three things that you found the most valuable from this class experience, what would they be? What do you feel overall that this course has helped you prepare for? I think the group work was the most valuable because it helped me socially. I learned to act professionally at times were professionalism was most needed and I was able to stay calm and composed even when a group member was being immature and rude. Another thing I enjoyed was the class discussions and class work where we all created one thing. I liked the activity during the storytelling unit where we all passed around papers to create a story.

LETTER TO YOURSELF

Look back at your experience over the last two years here at Film/Video Production. Reflect on what you've learned, accomplished, the friends you've made and compose a letter to yourself on the first day of class in the beginning class. Imagine that this letter couple be delivered to yourself on that day and he/she could read it. What advice would you give your past self? Would you tell them they are going to have a great experience? What would you warn them about? Dear Angela from the beginning of second semester,       Here is some advice before going into this class: don't let being the new student stop you from expressing your opinions. The people in this class are very open and welcoming. Don't be afraid of them. They probably won't judge you for having ideas. It's okay to be wrong. It's better to say something than say nothing. You know more than you think you may know. This class is going to be a lot of fun but also really stressful. Be prepare...

BEST UNIT

What unit did you enjoy the most? Why? What are three things that you learned from the unit? What are two things that you'd like to know more about? How could this unit be improved? Please give detailed input. I enjoyed the film history unit the most because I was able to incorporate my US and world history knowledge with the things that we were learning in this unit. It was cool learning about all the different ways things were made and how things were started. With all the videos, I was able to understand and internalize all the information. The sound unit was also pretty good but a lot of the topics were quite hard to interpret. It might have been just me for this unit but I felt as though it passed by too fast. If I had gotten more time on this unit, I feel like I might have done better and understood the subjects better.
