In this project we had to video someones hobby using the 6 shot sequence. The 6 shot sequence is the sequence of shots that are the mail shots used in filming anything. The 6 shots are: extra close up (xcu), close up (cu), over the shoulder (ots), close up (cu), medium, wide, and extra wide. Extra close up is so close you can only tell what that person is doing. In a close up you can see what the person is doing and what they are doing it with. In an over the shoulder you see what the person is doing over their shoulder. In a medium shot you can see all of what they are doing and where they are from their waist up. In a wide shot you can see what the person is doing and most of where they are. In an extra wide shot you can see all of what they are doing and all of where they are. I learned what all the 6 shots are and how to use them. I also learned that you can have 2 wide or extra wide shots in a row. I also am learning to be more comfortable in final cut pro. In my next project i hope to apply everything that i learned from the 6 shot sequence.
