50 Shot Test

 

Just an exercise from Stockman's How to Shoot Video that Doesn't Suck - which I highly recommend as a fun and informative workbook, btw - try to work up 50 different angles to view the same thing. Used the iPhone, so no zoom or anything tricky. Got to practice a little with Premiere and Audition too. 

Learned a few things. Mostly, that the sophistication of the modern viewer demands extremely creative and unusual camera angles to maintain visual appeal. Zoom with your feet. Faces really matter too; no face, no eyes, no draw.
