CAMERA SHOTS TO TELL STORIES
Create a movie from a still picture by choosing shots and camera moves. As a practice task, use software tools to recreate a movie about people in a crowd. See how combinations of camera shots can hide things from, or reveal things to, the audience and create mood. Apply these skills to an assessment by telling a story using a different photo. Choose a title, outline the story and describe the mood and feelings your film will convey. Select three elements of the photo as shots and sequence them on a storyboard. Add camera moves such as pans and jump cuts between the shots. Write explanations of how your choices of shot and movement help to tell your story.
