simple sequence (easy smeasy and mercury!)


For my simple action I would like to have someone picking up some sort of beverage, and then opening up the lid, and then taking a drink of it, and finally putting the lid back on and setting it down. I was thinking I could start off with a medium shot from a neutral angle, go to a close up as the subject is opening up the drink (with a low angle), then to a bird's eye view as the subject is drinking it, and then finish with wide shot from a neutral angle.

first blog(:

My video production experience so far has been fine. It hasn't been too exciting, but it hasn't been really boring either. So far I understand what has been going on, and I have been able to pick up on the basics of Final Cut Pro. I've also noticed a lot more about the movies and tv shows I see, and the angles they are shot from.

On Saturday night I went to my friend Nicole's birthday party. The theme was old hollywood, and everyone had to wear black and white. My friend Nicole had the prettiest black and white gown, with long white gloves. She even had a tiara. Before the party Nicole and I were waiting for the limo. It was supposed to show up at 6:30. We Waited, and waited, and waited and waited. 6:30 came and went, so did 6:40 and 6:50 and 7:00. We were both seriously irritated. He finally showed up at 7:15, Nicole was late for her own party! It wasn't even fashionably late, just annoying.
