Video Scavenger Hunt

In your production groups (once your LOGO and Production names have been decided and approved) you will be working together to collect images and film the required objects/situations. You will need to learn how to get into the shot and think about how you may capture the shot using a variety of perspectives. You will need to pause between clips and come back to the school to edit.

Vocabulary:


Montage- 

Montage is a technique in film editing in which a series of short shots are edited into a sequence to condense space, time, and information. It is usually used to suggest the passage of time, rather than to create symbolic meaning.

From the 1930s to the 1950s, montage sequences often combined numerous short shots with special optical effects (fades, dissolves, split screens, double and triple exposures) and music. They were usually assembled by someone other than the director or the editor of the movie.

We will follow along with a online tutorial that explains and provides excellent examples of the shots that make good and exciting film.
