The Jungle Book Review

The Jungle Book was one of my childhood favorite movies. The 2016 version of The Jungle Book was even more amazing then the older animated version.
The overall story of this piece was the boy Mowgli who was raised in the jungle by the animals has to escape from the tiger, Shere Kan, who also was the animal that killed Mowgli's father. Throughout the story Mowgli finds himself discovering more and more who he is and the role he plays in the jungle to protect his friends. In the end Mowgli posses what no animal could possess the red flower, fire, and uses it to defeat Shere Kan and bring peace to the jungle.

This movie is amazing. All of the shots are perfectly placed and all of the lighting looks very natural and pretty. The animations of the animals are just as amazing as the voice acting for them and the acting for Mowgli. The Jungle Book is overall an amazing film that I personally recommend for anyone to watch.

Something that I hope to use from this film in my projects is the lighting. The lighting is so good that I want to try and make that same lighting effect in my movies to make every shot look how it is planned to look. One element that I already have that they used in this film is probably the continuation of all the parts in the film. This film is very good in keeping continuation in shots which is one of the things that I really like to keep in line in my videos that I make.

Everything in this film is done well. Nothing really needs improvement at all in this film every little aspect seems to have been worked on hard enough to make it all wonderful. Overall, The Jungle Book  is one of the best films that I think has came out in 2016. Every tiny piece in this movie is amazing in its own way and everything just feels real. Especially if you have seen the older animated version this film will for sure be one of the best remakes a person could see.

Chase Scene

This project was a chase scene that was a sequence of around 30 shots. The shots used were medium, wide, close up, extreme close up, point of view, and over the shoulder. What it took to make this video was before we filmed we made a storyboard, next we took 2 hours to film the shots we had on our storyboard, finally I edited the video in Final Cut Pro. I learned how to color correct in final cut pro which helped make my shots look better. No new camera shots or angles were used in the video so I didn't learn anything in the camera category. If I could go back now and change something I would make some more of the shots have a better white balance in the hallways because they were kind of yellowish. All of the other shots and angles I would keep the same because they all looked really well in the finish. In the next project I will white balance more often to make the shots look better. In conclusion my video was very good in my opinion, just a few visual things due to the whi

Blood and Legos

Blood Drive This is a news report over the ONW blood drive on Nov. 14 2014 that I edited and filmed with my video team of Kit Walters and Victoria Scarduzio . I had to make sure to capture important story telling shots about the ONW blood drive, we chose to follow sophomore Olivia Contractor.  There was no tripod use so all of the shots were shot in a particular stance to make them as steady as possible. Once we were done filming we brought it back to edit, using a very import editing technique called JNL edits. A JNL edit is where you see the subject speaking before they are heard in the video.  That new technique was the most important thing that I learned from this news report process. After seeing the shots and how it turned out, most likely if I did it again I would ask Olivia more questions and do my best to make steadier shots. The rest I would do the exact same because the video turned out quite well. In conclusion I learned a lot about the importance of sound byt

Professional Project Review: 21 Jump Street

21 Jump Street I absolutely love this movie! It is and will always be one of my favorite comedy movies. This movie is overall a hilarious piece of art. The story is very funny and has many great points throughout it. The irony in the story is also a valuable part in it in story. In which the main characters Schmidt and Jenko were once enemies then became friends then enemies and once again back to friends. It also presents a solid mystery in trying to find the drug lord, in which I truly didn't see being conveyed through the story for who it actually was. I never saw the old show  (left) that it was based off of. Inferring the old show was as funny and interesting as this it must have been a hit!  This movie already has a sequel  22 Jump Street  which I thought was as equally amazing!   I hope that a third movie could be created because both of these movies were brilliantly comedic and had a fantastic story to build with it. 21 Jump Street is an phenomenal m
