EXP2 - Video planning

One of the major advancement from the last experiment I want to make with this video is the is the actual video quality. Instead of a simple demonstration video of porosity lens, a few factor needed to be consider for the documentary.

  1. Firstly in the assignment brief, caption is specifically needed for the video to be successful in explaining porosity. I want to consider using the captions in a different way than normal documentaries. Using minimal captions to create maximum dynamic effect and direct to the point about porosity without using too many captions.
  2. Next is documentary style, instead of the documentary styles we learnt in experiment 1. I want to incorporate film making style into this documentary, I intend to use cutscene to act as introduction and prologue for the video, thus giving it a very simple intro, body, conclusion style to the video. Also with the use of a camera instead of freestyle recording, camera can provide a much steadier and smoother recording thus better quality. I researched few movie titles for camera angle techniques, Chris Nolan uses of the sky view of the city to give an introduction to "The Dark Knight" is a very nice and effective introduction without using too much information to cluster the viewer.
  3. Lastly is the music choice, too many past examples uses techno or heavy metal music as the "choice to go". In this video, I wanted to provide music that ties in with the notion of porosity; coincides with my explanation of porosity, porosity creates the character of architecture, giving it life and aesthetics; and provide a dynmaic effect of a good video. Here are the choices.
