The Camera in MotionIII. Drunk Stoned Brilliant Dead Current LectureBasics of the Moving Image Basics of the Moving Image Persistence of vision Sequence of images being projected that our eyes see as cohesive; there is actually a disconnect between frames, but since they move fast enough, we can’t tell Film records at 24 frames per second (fps) Except for ‘The Hobbit’ movies; the frame rate makes it look almost hyper real Video records at 29.97 fps When shooting video with the GH2, use “24 fps” setting and NOT “30 fps” It will give it more of a cinematic look, and most importantly your footage won’t crash Capital Fitness Commercial Movement Movement in and out of focus: Use telephoto shot Movement adds to theme of activity / helps move eyes to what the gym wants to show of Pans that go left to right and up and down: They’re motivated by the movement of the subjects Other times the camera is still and there is a lot of movement in the frame itself Movement of shadow: Allows the viewer to project self into itThe Camera in Motion Types of Camera Set-upsThese notes represent a detailed interpretation of the professor’s lecture.
