When you finish this assignment you will have identified most of the essential camera shots.
1. Watch and familiarize yourself with Essential Camera Shots . Take notes.
2. Watch Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge. (This is part 1 of 5. You will want to watch them in order.)
3. Find an example of each shot in the Occurence at Owl Creek video. Take a screen shot, being careful to get the full screen (CMD-Shift-4 to select you own, CMD-Shift-3 to take the entire screen.)
4. Open that screen shot in Illustrator.
5. Use text to identify the shot size and type and arrows to show the camera movement. Make sure that the text is bright yellow (shows up best) with a drop shadow behind it (to make it stand out).
6. Export the labeled shot as a .png. File>Export>Export as>.png. Name it the same as the label.
7. When you have finished, upload the 20 separate shots in ONE email (20 separate attachments). (do not use a zip file or folder). There should be an example of each angle, shot size and movement listed in Essential Camera Shots (except for a crane).
Alternate method: follow the instructions above but create all 20 shots as 20 artboards in one .ai
(Adobe Illustrated) file. Choose File>Export>Export as>png. Send the .png to [email protected]
Here's a list of all the shots needed:
