Here's a breakdown of the essential gear to consider:

- Camera: The foundation of your videography setup, a camera allows you to capture high-quality footage. Choose a camera that suits your skill level and budget, considering factors like image resolution, sensor size, and video recording capabilities. - Lens: The lens acts as the camera's eye, determining the field of view and the character of your shots. Explore different lens types, such as wide-angle lenses for expansive landscapes or telephoto lenses for capturing distant subjects. - Tripod: A tripod ensures stability and eliminates camera shake, especially when shooting static scenes or low-light environments. - Microphone: Audio quality is just as crucial as visual quality. Equip your setup with a microphone to capture clear and crisp sound, whether it's a directional microphone for interviews or a shotgun microphone for general recording. - Lighting: Lighting plays a vital role in setting the mood and enhancing the visual appeal of your shots. Consider investing in lighting equipment, such as studio lights or continuous lights, to control the lighting conditions. The Fundamentals of Videography

Before diving into the technical aspects of camera operation and editing software, it's essential to grasp the fundamental principles of videography. These principles form the foundation for creating visually appealing and engaging videos. - Composition: Composition refers to the arrangement of elements within the frame. Understand the principles of composition, such as the rule of thirds and leading lines, to create visually balanced and captivating shots. - Exposure: Exposure refers to the amount of light entering the camera sensor, determining the brightness of the image. Master the concept of exposure to capture well-lit and visually appealing shots. - Framing: Framing refers to the way you position your subject within the frame. Experiment with different framing techniques, such as close-ups, medium shots, and wide shots, to create visual interest and convey different emotions. - Camera Movement: Movement adds dynamism and visual interest to your videos. Explore different camera movement techniques, such as panning, tilting, and tracking, to create cinematic effects and guide the viewer's attention. The Editing Process: Bringing Your Vision to Life Once you've captured your footage, the editing process begins. Editing software allows you to assemble your clips, add transitions, and incorporate sound effects and music to create a cohesive and engaging video. Popular editing software options include Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.

Hi I’m back, wassup to all of you avid readers? I’m here again to discuss the different kinds of camera techniques wherein my instructor taught us how it works and how it taken by the use of your High Definition Camera. So here we go, let’s discuss the different kind of Camera Techniques.

Extreme Wide Shot. This is what we call in the first shot and the image shown above. According to my notes, extreme wide shot is taken from as much as a quarter of a mile away and is generally used as a scene-setting, establishing shot. 

Extreme Wide shot is commonly taken by the beginning of the movie and it depends if its going to take by the ending of the movie.

Wide Shot. Wide shot is the second category of the camera techniques and the example of an image shown above. According to my instructor, wide shot is the most difficult to categorize precisely but it is generally one which shows the image as approximately “life” size corresponding to the real distance between the audience and the screen in a cinema (the figure of a man would appear a six feet tall.)

Wide Shot is can be scene by the movies where in the 2 or more characters are in walking scene while they are throwing a dialogues to each other.

Close-Up. Close-Up is the third category of a camera techniques and the image shown above. As a researcher blogger, I search again the definition of close-up shot to make the topic more interesting hahaah anyway, according to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, close-up is a photograph or movie picture taken very close to an object or person.

This kind of shot, you will be encounter it by the subjects dialogue by taking shot at a close range.

Extreme Close-Up. The fourth category of camera techniques. As its name suggest, an extreme version of the close-up. Literally.

This can be seen sometimes in horror movie.

The Bird’s-Eye View. 5th Category. This shows a scenario from directly overhead, a very unnatural and strange angle.

This can be seen in the action movies, like “London has Fallen.”

High Angle. The sixth category (road to finish, in the name of the grade) of camera techniques. In my notebook said that the high angle is not so extreme as a bird’s-eye view. The camera is elevated above the action using a crane to give a general overview.

Eye Level. Seventh category. It’s fairy neutral shot: The camera is positioned as through it is a human actually observing a scene so that the actors head are on level with the focus.

If you are going to take a shot, it must be in real perspective in human eye.

Low Angle. Last category!!!!!! Heart Heart!!!!!!!!!!! These increase the height of the main subject  and it gives a sense of speed motion.

Example of movie: American Made

So that’s all!! Thank you for reading my blog even though you know, shortage. But I’m still hoping that you gain some knowledge about this topic. Thankyouuuuu and good day everyone!!

In #photography, #composition and #cameratechnique is essential. Here, frame is cut in half and subject is on the 2nd 3rd line. Subject is also naturally framed as to bring all attention to the subject. When you look at this photo, your eyes stay fixed on the #groom . All of this is shot with intention. . . . . . #bohobride #thatsdarling #loveauthentic #engaged #greenweddingshoes #chasinglight #bohowedding #HypeBeast #vscoportrait #ig_mood #discoverportrait #portraitphotography #bleachmyfilm #postmoreportraits #portraitpage #lookslikefilm #weloveatl #whyiloveatl #groomfashion #atlweddingphotographer #igersatlanta #weddingwire #canoneos #hmongphotographers #weddingphotographer (at Koury Farms) https://www.instagram.com/p/BqNBB9alOiV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=l0wlnkey5lza
