OPEN SCREENING OCT. 26TH
Dear Creators of Media,
Arts Codec (New Media Student Arts Group) and I are hosting Open Screening Oct. 26th from 5:30-6:30 @ WieKamp 1001. Please note the time has changed.
Open screening is for everyone in the New Media Department or anyone interested in media. Anyone who produces any kind of electronic media is welcome (video, design work, digital photography, etc.). Please bring work in progress or finished work to share. Our goal is to strengthen the electronic arts community on campus and give us a chance to see what students, faculty, and staff are creating.
Please bring files on a thumb drive and make sure they are optimized for viewing (smaller file sizes are preferable). Be prepared to discuss your work and receive feedback.

CONTINUITY (MOVING THROUGH THE CINEMATIC SPACE)
INTRODUCTION from The Five C's of Cinematography
"A professional sound motion picture should present a continuous, smooth, logical flow of visual images, supplemented by sound, depicting the filmed event in a coherent manner."
In Class Assignment
Group up in pairs of two or for more of a challenge 3, its up to you. I then want you to develop quickly a narrative structure that has one or two characters (depending on your groups size) moving from one place to another. These pieces should be comprised of at least 15 shots of the character moving through space (walking or running), and 1 shot at the end of them arriving/reacting to where they are. It could be as simple as arriving at a door step or looking over out at the landscape. These need to be any where from 30sec to a minute long. Make sure you keep the axis line in mind when shooting. After shooting is complete, every team member should take the footage, and make their own edits. The project is DUE Oct. 23RD. You will have this class and the next to develop your ideas, shoot, and edit.
READING Assignment: I want to start the 2nd Chapter CONTINUITY: Read 67-75 up to Master Scene Technique and 93-103 up to Map Direction. No quiz will be given for this given reading, but the principles learned within the reading should inform the assignment above.

MONTAGE/Editing on MOVEMENT
DUE Sept 20th
You homework is to create 3 Montage Sequences. Each sequence will needs a break of a couple of seconds in-between. For example you could start with setting up a character/actor like sitting and watching TV (like Shaun of the Dead) then go into a very quick montage sequence, then break, then montage, then break, and then end on a montage. You could do the reverse of that. Either way you end up with 3 short montages and 3 breaks or moments in-between. Shoot for the edit, watch for things moving or create your own by moving the camera really quickly. Your montage may not have any cross dissolves only hard cuts.
