week 5 tute
Week 5 tute
In this tute, we have a very complicated task to do that is to find the answers to ten questions. That is a big job, it need us spend time to do and there are a lot of answer on the website, but only one of them are right, so that you should use you thinking to judge which one is the best. I think it is good for my research in my study in the other courses.

week 4 tute
Week 4 tutorial
In this tutorial, we had a task that is finding a movie which had been watched, and find the key point of the story. Like how the directors tell the reader how is the story going, and the story was happened in what time, who is the key man in the story. What is more, we also need to cut some pictures from the movie, and show when, who, where, how, what, and why. This tutorial helps us to know how to make a story, and how to use different shut to recording.

week3 lecture
Week 3 lecture
This lecture was telling about the meaning of abbreviation in the process of video making. Such as LS, WS, MS, CU. Why people using this kind of measures to make a video, that is because in those way makers can make the story more clear.
The long shot is our answer to the where question, at the beginning of a scene it is known as the establishing shot. Both the wide shot and the close up can help us answer the when question. Time can be a difficult thing to capture on the screen. The big close up can help answer the why question, usually by revealing more about a character and their actions. A single medium close up or a series of close ups can explain an event and answer the how question.

7. Why do phone numbers in Hollywood films start with '555'?
They use the 555 prefix, because it is not a real number in the United States. If they used a number that actually worked, some idiot would try calling the number. We have a lot of idiots in the United States so I'd say 1 person out of 100 people would try calling this number. If 200 million people watched this movie, 2 million people would try to call this number. That poor unfortunate person who by no fault of their own ended up with this number! It would be a nightmare for that person.

Lecture two is telling about a short history of the computer and the internet. The original computer is various adding machines. As the year continuous, the computers become more and more powerful. It can do many things more that you can image. Because of the development of the computer technology, the internet was invented in 1960s. Through the internet you can get almost all information of the word. Internet makes the communication system change dramatically, like IM, P2P, Skype. Now there is an very common sense: what you don’t know and what you want to know, take it easy, google it.
