Rationale

Person Rationale:

I interviewed Sharron because I thought it was very interesting her story of going on holiday in Europe and then finding a job teaching gypsys or Irish Travellers. I wanted to find out what she did what it was like and what was different amongst their lifestyle to ours. I chose to interview her at school as it fitted the story of her being a teacher. I chose the cutaways to keep the viewer’s attention as I thought watching a video of just a close up shot would be boring. Cutaways involved children, artwork and school related items such as books which I though look good and was suitable for my videos topic and visually showing where she’s is at today in her career as a teacher

Place Rationale:
I chose this area of Browns Bay along Paremata Road as it is a place which I use to visit a lot when I was in college and I would always pass this small beach every day on the way to and from school. Where me and my mates you to chill and relax after hot school days so I decided to portray this place as refreshing natural and peaceful.I used shots that were very vibrant and had a lot of focus in clarity of the Highlighted subject in the shot. I walk down to the beach and look up to find the beach. I then have various cut scenes displaying the views of the beach and the various landmarks, things and sheds at the beach. It is located near a corner with moderate traffic which audio I thought added to the environment of the area using the raw natural audio from it with the native birds in the background and waters movement. I chose to record this on a great day was I was trying to imitate summer as how me and my friends use to come down to swim and jet ski after hot school days at college. The detour end connects with the intro of the video Detour Ahead. I’ve focused on Shots which have relevance to the places we would play and hangout along the beach. I Added Black bars along the top and bottom as I though the video looked nicer and it helped the colour on the video too with the framing.Editing I liked the straight cut to each shot but have a fade in and out for the beginning
Inspiration for this film was Ivan Slavov a Music Video Producer I like his style of shooting and edits. He has very clear nicely edited music videos which keep consistent vivid detail.
