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 prepared to have a packed day with school, film class, and rehearsals. No naps. ALSO realize that you are from Saratoga. Not everyone has the same benefits as you but don't be arrogant about it. Have fun and don't procrastinate!! 
                                 -Angela from the end of the semester.

  1. It sounds like your journey through the film/video production class was quite enriching and full of growth. I'm struck by how you emphasises the importance of being vocal and engaged despite the initial fears of being the new student. It’s crucial, isn't it? Especially in creative fields like video production where every perspective can add unique value to a project. Adelaide, where I'm currently exploring video production avenues. I’d love to hear more about how these principles play out in different settings, perhaps even in the bustling creative scenes of places like Adelaide!

  3. Thanks for sharing such an honest and heartfelt post. Reading it made me think about how much I’ve grown creatively over the years. When I first started working on small film projects here in Adelaide, I used to overthink every scene and worry about getting it all right. Over time, I realised the learning process itself is what shapes you both personally and creatively. That’s something I’ve come to appreciate through my experiences in video production in Adelaide, where every project teaches you something new about yourself.

  4. A simple but meaningful idea i like how the post encourages reflection without making it feel complicated. While looking into a corporate video production company in Mumbai, I also came across Ambest Brandcom.

3-POINT LIGHTING

What are three key points that the presenter makes about lighting? Why are each of them important? What is one point that you would like to learn more about? Hair lights separate the subject from the background. It makes the body pop out and frame the subject. The key is the most important light. It is the strongest light that is hitting the subject. Fill lights even out the shadows. The key light is usually closest to the subject. The fill light is twice as far from the subject. 

CHARACTER ARCHETYPES

Which archetype seems easiest to write? Which do you think seems the most difficult? Why? What archetype do you understand the least? Why? What kind of hero's do you like telling stories about? I feel like the mentor is the easiest to write, seeing as they are just help so if there's a plot hole, the mentor can help fill in the background info that the audience needs. I think the main character is the most difficult. The main character has to be simple enough to be average but complex enough to stand out from society to be the main character. The shadow is something that I feel like I may struggle to do as well because I don't like to keep my antagonists as 100% bad. I need a reason for my audience to see the reason behind their actions and possibly sympathize with them.
