Quarter 2-Week 2: Graphic Organizer

-
In order to prepare for the sample exam, we were asked to create a graphic organizer with information from all the main topics that we have covered so far. This includes sound, editing, film techniques, and mode-en-scene. I chose to split each category into its own section and then create separate graphic organizers for each category.  Here is my graphic organizer.

We used my iPhone 6 for the camera and, after being unable to find a tripod in the garage, used a stepladder for stability. We shot about 20 different clips of similar scenes from different angles.
