The Exposure Triangle

 




On the video above it is possible to see six different shots. One with a deep focus and the other with a shallow depth of field, both with other two different versions, one overexposed and one underexposed. During this exercise, I was able to better understand how light and focus work on a DSLR camera through combinations of aperture, ISO, and shutter speed. I also learned that it is important to find balance, and that exposure is very important to set the mood of the film.

Short film project "Create your future"

            Script For this project, Will and I worked together to plan and film it. Initially, I was having a hard time coming up with ideas, so he came up with the idea of having two characters applying for college, in which one of them was completely unprepared. Then we started adding more details and building the characters' personalities and interests. We set that the film would be a satire to criticize how some colleges prioritize athletics and donations over scholarship and character. To express this theme one of the characters would be very smart and hardworking, she would participate in stereotypical extracurriculars such as debate, while the other character would be an athlete, from a wealthy family that was applying to an ivy league college last minute. We planned the places and the dialogs and started recording them. One of the places we wanted to film was occupied so we had to improvise and film the writing scene in another room, which aft...

Soundscape

For this audio project I came up with the idea of doing a dinner scene, I thought to myself all the sounds I could do and tried to mimic them as similar as I could. I think that the most successful part of this project was getting the sounds, as all of them sounded really close to the sounds in real life. The least successful past of this project was editing it, Whenever I transferred the audio from voice memos to my computer, it became mute, so I had to use Premiere Rush on my phone to edit. Overall, this project taught me how to edit a series of sounds to make them seem continuous and how to export audios in voice memos to another device.

Script Sample - Full Script Here    At first, I was having a hard time coming up with ideas for the film, but as I was talking with William, I remembered a book that I once read called  'One of Us is Lying',  and that was where I got my inspiration for the script. In the book five characters go to detention; The nerd, the dealer, the popular girl, the baseball player, and Simon, the character that dies during detention. Up to the end, the book builds this mystery on who killed Simon and shows the personal side of each character while they are being investigated. When we set up the overall idea of the film we partnered with Morgan and Emiro to elaborate more on the script. We ended up recycling some of the characters and putting a twist on the story. Ben Richards (the nerd) was played by Will, Jessica Hart (the dealer) was played by Morgan, Ricardo Alvarez (the football player) was played by Emiro, and Michelle Diaz (the snitch who dies) was played by me. We each...
