Avant Garde Film





Resolution and Aspect Ratio are both terms that can be used to describe a video. A video's resolution is determined by the amount of pixels are lined up to make up the video. An example would be how 1080p video is 1920 pixels by 1080 pixels. A video's aspect ratio is the ratio between the video's height and width.

I feel that time management and planning were our main strengths when doing this project. Having a plan and sticking to it allowed us to finish our project very efficiently and in a timely manor. If we were to do this again I would try to have all members of the group actively involved most of the time. This is because during the process of filming there were a few instances in which some group members had nothing to do or chose not to cooperate.

Investigation 10/12: Visual Storytelling (Show Not Tell)

Visual storytelling describes the process of telling your story by only using visual elements rather than verbally. An easy way to look at verbal storytelling is to examine a children's book. The narration of a children's book bluntly tells the reader everything they need to know about what is going on. It tells who characters are, what they are doing, how they are feeling, and more all by directly telling the audience. Visual storytelling is the opposite as it uses only visual elements to broadcast the story to the audience, leading them to discern the story from what they see. Visual storytelling is a very general idea with different techniques to do so. Some of these techniques can be found below Visual Storytelling Through Framing Since visual storytelling is a visual form of telling a story, framing your shots within a film properly can convey your story without any dialogue. While most films use dialogue to enhance its story, the use of framing is so powerful that a film ...
