YSP Shots Walkthrough

Shot 1: The first shot is a chase shot which shows Joe running down a hill towards a statue and myself following. I increased the speed of the shot to make it seem more comical. I chose a running fade which instead of fading in and out it fades directly from one shot to the other.

Shot 2: Shot 2 is another shot of Joe but this time he has his arms flailing and he’s is running towards some children, I am briefly seen in the shot walking. Again I chose to speed up the shot to make it look funnier. The transition that I chose this time is what I like to call a burn transition which gives the illusion that the first shot has burns away to reveal the second.

Shot 3: The third shots show Joe performing to the camera. It is a very humorous performs of Joe lifting a branch off the ground pretending that it is very heavy. Once again I have sped up the shot to make it seem even more humorous than it already is. The transition I have used shows the first shot break into small dots which eventually disappear to reveal the next shot.

Shot 4: Shot 4 begins with me climbing into a statue and pretending to get stuck, hearing this Joe tries to get me out in a comical way. We then continue to talk about the sculpture. Just like the previous shots the speed has been increased. The transition for this shot is just a simple fade to black transition.

Shot 5: Shot 5 shows a simple zoom onto a sculpture before panning and fading. The speed of this shot was kept the same as it didn’t need any comical value. The transition is the same as the previous dot transition which the shot breaks into small dots which disappear showing the next shot.

Shot 6: This shot show myself doing a funny walk. The speed of the shot was kept the same because it would have been too short if the speed was increased. Again the transition is just a simple fade to black.

Shot 7:The seventh shot shows a still shot with a slight  zoom on a sculpture of a face. The speed has been kept the same as it did not need to be increased. The transition was just a simple fade to white.

Shot 8: Shot 8 shows an upward pan on a sculpture to reveal it’s face. The speed has been kept the same as it did not need to be increased. The transition was what I like to call the checkerboard transition where the look of a checkerboard cuts out the existing shot to reveal the new one.

Shot 9: This shot shows a sculpture then it zooms out and pans left. The speed has also been kept the same here. The transition is just a simple fade to black which lead into the text that follows.

Text: The text simple says “Well That Was Weird”. I chose this because it will add to the humor of the video.

Shot 10: Shot 10 is the final shot, it shows myself, Joe and Matt walking along a path with the words “Yorkshire Sculpture Park” appearing underneath. The speed of the shot has been increased considerably to end the video. The video ends on a simple fade to black.

Music: The piece of music that I have chosen is called “Improper Dancing” by Electric Six. I chose this particular piece because I felt that it also help the video to be more humorous.
