CAMERA SHOT PROJECT - Harley Schmalz
By:
Cinematography, An Art passed down through out the ages... well, since the early 1900's, but still an art that has impacted nearly every person on the face of the planet...
One man has now created his own interpretation of this art with a short demo demonstrating different skills he uses while filming...

A CINEMATOGRAPHY DEMO
So, Ninja Harley...
Why is learning about camera composition important?
It is very important that you learn how to work a camera. It is like a paintbrush, but automatic and much faster than the human hand!
How do different camera shots and camera angles change the meaning of the story in the video for the audience?
Pretend I am you, and there is a sword coming at me. If you see it from my point of view, it is much more intense than if you were seeing it from a trees point a view, because trees cannot see, and they are at a much less dramatic angle of the sword than I.
What have your learned by participating in this project?
Film making is a lot like the movie "Vantage Point". The story is different from every angle, but essentially the same thing, just more interesting at some points of view than others. *poof*
