STUDIO 2 BRIEF Formative 01 – Composition and Editing Working in a group of 4-5 people, film and edit the following very simple story: On a cold morning, a person leaves his or her house in a hurry, gets into their car, drives to school, arrives at school, goes inside school building, arrives in class, and nervously sits down in front of a computer. It is your team’s job to film each shot using proper meaningful shot compositions and pacing. It is up to your team to decide just how much of each shot is necessary to show in order to tell the story. You want to achieve an economy of storytelling – that is, show everything that is necessary to communicate your story, and no more. Once you have filmed each shot, work together to edit the final sequence. Ideally, the sequence should be under 30 seconds in length, and certainly no longer than a minute. You can use any camera you want to film this, including your phones. The idea is to simply try to tell a clear and effective story that communicates all of the story elements listed above. Is there a more complex story sitting underneath these simple stage directions? That is up to you and your team to determine.
