Experience Review:

On September 8th, 2022, me and my friends Malavika and Rida went outside to the school campus and filmed multiple scenes for certain transitions. The first one, a sound/object transition, I filmed by myself in my house with my own electric guitar.  I wanted to do a sound transition thing for a while and my ideas kind of bled into the second clip, the fast/multiple cut. For the next one, I based it off of the beginning of the movie Dazed and Confused (1993). The idea was for the cuts to match up with the sound, but I couldn't get access to the music or film it with it playing in the background, so I kind of guessed. The last clip is a Fade to Black, really easy but useful for a closer. 

The extra scenes exist because I misread the assignment and made five, whoops, but at least it was more than enough. For the dolly zoom in, I wanted the background to get larger/closer while I stayed the same but there was no way I could back up and zoom in at the same time so I ended up using a TikTok filter to create this clip. The last transition is one that I am proud of, but it just ended up in the 'extra' section. It was one where I would 'kick' the camera and end up transitioning into somewhere else but I ran out of ideas of what to transition to so I just grabbed it instead. Plus, I had already used an object transition, therefore, its an extra.
