Took a leisurely walk to the San Francisco Marina Yacht Harbor today. Was reminded of a friend from art school who is a veteran and now lives on his yacht at the harbor. Today's story is dedicated to that friend. The first 2 shots were pre-planned whilst the remaining 9 were random. 17 Jun POV/MS/DA/EWS/LA/WS/CBS/CU/HA/ECU/OTS

I realized that I missed a day by accident on 31 May. I was not feeling too well in Bogota then, preparing for my flight to Cartagena at night. Anyway, I made up for it by doing 2 stories today. Again, I gave myself a random shot order to fulfill. Additionally, for 'My Baby',I tried to rely less on line but more on value shapes to simplify my composition and save precious time. I hope you enjoy the stories! (: 31 May MS/OTS/CU/POV/EWS/LA/DA/ECU/HA/WS/CBS About 'My Baby' - Initially I wanted to do a boxing match because the first few shots seemed perfect for that (MS of Boxer 1, OTS of Boxer 1 in foreground with Boxer 2 in midground, CU of Boxer 1, POV of Boxer 1 seeing Boxer 2's glove flying into his face etc...). Instead, I decided to turn the violent boxing story on its head into the sweet 'My Baby' because I found it funny and challenging. 16 Jun WS/OTS/LA/MS/HA/CU/DA/ECU/POV/CBS/EWS It's been a month since I started this exercise so I have decided to pick 3 of my favorite stories I have done so far! There were many stories that I liked but because of my messy and hideous draftsmanship no one could understand them but me. These stories were chosen because I felt that they were the most clearly understood :D In the previous post, my stories followed the systematic inward/outward progression of shots. It is an effective way to tell a story but it was starting to feel formulaic. I decided to randomize my shots from 08 Jun onward and these are the results. Additionally, I decided to expand the story on 14 Jun across 2 days. Looking over my work there are 2 main areas where I need to improve on. 1. CLARITY 2. Composition (to support story point) -Specifically... a. Lighting I was excited and nervous at first about this exercise of randomized shots as I felt that I might have to force inappropriate shots into a story. Thankfully, I found ways to work with the limitation, such as using hybrid shots and creating a story that revolved around the random shot order. I have provided the random shot order for each of the stories above each video link. 14+15JUN DA/WS/POV/LA/MS/OTS/ECU/CBS/EWS/CU/HA/HA/MS/LA/WS/DA/OTS/CU/ECU/CBS/POV/EWS 13JUN CBS/LA/WS/DA/CU/EWS/HA/MS/ECU/OTS/POV 12JUN DA/LA/OTS/MS/HA/POV/WS/CBS/CU/ECU/EWS 11JUN DA/OTS/ECU/WS/LA/MS/EWS/CU/HA/CBS/POV 10JUN POV/CU/EWS/DA/LA/OTS/HA/CBS/WS/ECU/MS 09JUN OTS/EWS/POV/CU/LA/ECU/HA/MS/WS/DA/CBS 08JUN CBS/OTS/MS/EWS/WS/LA/CU/ECU/HA/DA/POV |
