Frame size vs Choice of lens
Lenses should be changed depending on the application, such as frame size.

Comparing differences between wide angle/ standard/ tele lenses by shooting same subject


Fig 3 - Comparing Differences

Different lenses produce differences between wide/standard/tele angle, even if it is the same subject.


Fig 4 - W.S Example


Wide Shot- W.S
Shoot wide angle (18mm-30mm)


Fig 5 - M.S Example


Medium Shot- M.S | Shoot standard angle (40mm-50mm)
Medium Close-up Shot- M.C.U | Shoot standard angle (45mm-55mm)


Fig 6 - M.C.U Example

Headroom
Headroom refers to enough room for the subject's head. Space around their head yet not too much. Too low in the frame (too much headroom) makes them appear short. Not enough headroom makes them look tall and scrunched. Correct headroom gives the subject just enough space around their head to make them look comfortable.

5. Week3 Storytelling in Film 
Re-cap
Story: The set of all the events in cause-effect relationship occuring in time and space, both the ones explicitly presented and those the viewer infers, constitutes the story.

Plot: Everything visibly and audibly present in the film, and material that is extraneous to the story world.

Story & Plot:
Story = What happened?
Plot = Why they happened? And how?

Plot Segmentation
The best method for understanding a film’s narrative system is to create a plot segmentation, a scene-by-scene outline of the entire film.


What is the Three Act Structure - Diagram
Fig 15 - Plot Segmentation

Story & Plot: 3 – ACT Structure

Story Structure

•Raises the stakes
•Reminder of the narrative enigma; presents the possibility of a different outcome 

Plot Point II: "the longest mile”
•The "Climactic Turning Point"
•Protagonist's quest reaches critical mass
•Possible solution is presented
•Biggest cliffhanger: will the protagonist win or lose?
