DSLR

Friday 24th September

Today I learned details of a DSLR camera. I have previous experience as I did GCSE photography so I didn’t find it too hard. But I’m sure aperture, ISO and white balance will be useful for the future. Once we’d looked at the basics we were set a task where we had to take pictures of lots of circles. To make editing easier later we tried to keep the circles roughly all the same size in the viewfinder when taking the videos of them. We also made sure to do a white balance and adjusting ISO and aperture on each shot to make sure they look good.

Today we  edited our videos of circles together. This introduced me to more complex parts of premiere, this time being keyframes. I didn’t struggle to much and I’m confident I can use keyframes to great effect in the future. I mainly used opacity keyframes to help transition between each of the circles. However, I also experimented a bit with scale  and positioning to make sure the circles were all the same size and layered on top of each other well.
