cemetery photos
This picture is really cool. I like how the gate frames the big tree at the entrance to kind of give you a warm feeling when you are visiting the loved ones that have passed. This picture is kind of a long shot of the tree and the tomb stones in the background and then framing because the gate frames the tree.
This photo is my favorite because its a long shot of the road and the trees are kind of enhancing the photo.
This photo is a medium close-up of the tomb stone and a long shot of the rest of the cemetery. The trees help the photo look a little more gloomy but with more detail as well since it is in black and white.
This photo is enhanced with the color of the leaves and the blue sky behind it. This is a low angle shot that is making the students look over powering as they are up in the tree. It can also be a long shot of the student at the top of the tree since he is so far away.
This shot is interesting because the tree is framing the cemetery in the back ground and the fence kind of levels the shot. The tree is a close-up and the cemetery is a long shot. It all comes together and frames the entire shot. The clouds enhance the shot and add more detail to the cemetery look.

Red Balloon
I just finished watching "The Red Balloon" and this movie really caught my eye. Even though this movie does not have a lot of talking in it, the music is what really made it interesting. In some of the sketches that I had drawn for my story board I had noticed that there is a lot of emotional shots like the close-up shot of the boys face after he was told that he could not take the balloon onto the bus. The boy was very sad and you could see the emotion on his face without words. Another shot that was very interesting was when the boy was standing outside on the balcony telling the balloon to obey him and to not go anywhere, this shot was a frame shot. This shot centers on the boy talking to the balloon and it also shows how dramatic the coloring is. The shutters were a light grayish blue and then the balloon just pops out with the bright vibrant red. This movie is really interesting because of the coloring and music that makes the shots even more dramatic than they already are. I love how everything else is kind of dull and dark and then the balloon is just this bright red that sticks out and catches your eye. There is a lot of up beat jingley music and sad lonely music when the boy cant find the balloon. A really interesting shot is of the boy running away from the church because he is not aloud to have the balloon inside so he runs away from it and you can see the church in the background with a bunch of tall buildings and the little boy looking so tiny, this shot is a long shot that shows the sky. Another shot that shows the boy really small is a high angle shot of the boy running away from other kids that are trying bully him and take the balloon away from him. I really liked this movie it symbolized friendship between the boy and the balloon and how fragile friendship can be at times.
