Now let's talk about doc or 3 3 00:00:05,460 --> 00:00:08,029 events. It's a little hard to kind of 4 4 00:00:08,054 --> 00:00:10,800 focus more on docs competitions, because 5 5 00:00:10,800 --> 00:00:12,963 a lot of times you are just running and 6 6 00:00:12,988 --> 00:00:15,180 gunning. My favorite thing with docs and 7 7 00:00:15,180 --> 00:00:16,827 events is that when you do interviews, 8 8 00:00:16,852 --> 00:00:18,600 you can really mess with the composition. 9 9 00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:20,288 I've seen some really cool documentary 10 10 00:00:20,313 --> 00:00:21,890 interviews where they might have two 11 11 00:00:21,890 --> 00:00:23,868 cameras going and you see one camera 12 12 00:00:23,893 --> 00:00:26,060 really tight on the lens and you can see 13 13 00:00:26,060 --> 00:00:27,547 the emotion of their interviewing them 14 14 00:00:27,572 --> 00:00:29,110 about something really touching and then 15 15 00:00:29,110 --> 00:00:31,086 they have a wide standard or 16 16 00:00:31,111 --> 00:00:33,910 alternatively in a doc, you tend to be 17 17 00:00:33,910 --> 00:00:35,790 running around with the camera on your shoulder. 18 18 00:00:35,790 --> 00:00:37,631 The fun thing about documentary is that 19 19 00:00:37,656 --> 00:00:39,380 you are really just looking at what's 20 20 00:00:39,380 --> 00:00:40,963 around you, remember I talked earlier 21 21 00:00:40,988 --> 00:00:42,670 about paying attention everything around 22 22 00:00:42,670 --> 00:00:44,158 you and working with what's in 23 23 00:00:44,183 --> 00:00:46,290 front of you. The cool thing about doc is 24 24 00:00:46,290 --> 00:00:47,717 you can take your camera and put it on 25 25 00:00:47,742 --> 00:00:49,180 the ground and shot a soccer ball going 26 26 00:00:49,180 --> 00:00:51,132 by what or you can be running with the kid 27 27 00:00:51,157 --> 00:00:53,129 and trying to get him in center of frame. I 28 28 00:00:53,129 --> 00:00:55,087 think the big thing about documentaries is 29 29 00:00:55,112 --> 00:00:57,000 that there's this tend to go towards just 30 30 00:00:57,000 --> 00:00:58,988 news-gathering and keeping the camera on 31 31 00:00:59,013 --> 00:01:00,879 your shoulder. Now you wanna with docs 32 32 00:01:00,879 --> 00:01:02,267 you are trying to express something, you 33 33 00:01:02,292 --> 00:01:03,520 are trying to present something in a 34 34 00:01:03,520 --> 00:01:05,380 certain manner, so you want to take that 35 35 00:01:05,405 --> 00:01:07,240 camera and take it off where we normally 36 36 00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:09,146 look right? We are normally looking around 37 37 00:01:09,171 --> 00:01:10,299 with their eyes like this 38 38 00:01:10,299 --> 00:01:11,640 the big thing to make things look 39 39 00:01:11,665 --> 00:01:13,100 different is to take your vision and 40 40 00:01:13,100 --> 00:01:14,668 move it somewhere else. So for 41 41 00:01:14,693 --> 00:01:16,810 documentary, maybe take your vision and 42 42 00:01:16,810 --> 00:01:18,698 put it down on the floor, put a high up, 43 43 00:01:18,723 --> 00:01:20,540 put a GoPro in a car where you wouldn't 44 44 00:01:20,540 --> 00:01:22,408 normally see a camera. The big thing is 45 45 00:01:22,433 --> 00:01:24,229 just put the camera where you wouldn't 46 46 00:01:24,229 --> 00:01:26,264 normally have your natural eyes. If I'm 47 47 00:01:26,289 --> 00:01:28,299 sitting here and I want to shot myself, 48 48 00:01:28,299 --> 00:01:29,915 the camera is directly in my eye level, 49 49 00:01:29,940 --> 00:01:31,450 because we are doing an interview and 50 50 00:01:31,450 --> 00:01:33,565 we are doing information. But if this was 51 51 00:01:33,590 --> 00:01:35,680 more intense, more emotional and I wanted 52 52 00:01:35,680 --> 00:01:37,232 to make myself look big, we might put the 53 53 00:01:37,257 --> 00:01:38,710 camera on the floor so I can be looking 54 54 00:01:38,710 --> 00:01:40,216 down on it. Or if you want to make me 55 55 00:01:40,241 --> 00:01:41,840 look small talking up, we might move the 56 56 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:43,672 camera tie up, somewhere where your eyes 57 57 00:01:43,697 --> 00:01:45,460 are not typically, because that's going 58 58 00:01:45,460 --> 00:01:47,499 to create that aesthetic, that's going to 59 59 00:01:47,524 --> 00:01:49,490 create that magic. So for a doc, put the 60 60 00:01:49,490 --> 00:01:51,795 camera and compose shots when we wouldn't 61 61 00:01:51,820 --> 00:01:53,880 normally see things from. I think the 62 62 00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,981 other thing with docs is to really just 63 63 00:01:56,006 --> 00:01:58,030 understand that it's in the moment and 64 64 00:01:58,030 --> 00:02:00,038 you have to be rushing and quickly and 65 65 00:02:00,063 --> 00:02:02,200 quickly doing it, and typically you don't 66 66 00:02:02,200 --> 00:02:03,824 want to look like a news thing, so shoot 67 67 00:02:03,849 --> 00:02:05,329 on a longer lens, try to make it look 68 68 00:02:05,329 --> 00:02:06,747 like a narrative as much as possible 69 69 00:02:06,772 --> 00:02:08,280 even though you are running and gunning 70 70 00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:10,944 if you'll try to push yourself to make 71 71 00:02:10,969 --> 00:02:13,130 you doc look more like a cinema 72 72 00:02:13,130 --> 00:02:14,925 movie and use the tools that I was 73 73 00:02:14,950 --> 00:02:16,720 talking about narratives like rack 74 74 00:02:16,720 --> 00:02:19,210 focusing, like 24 frames per second 75 75 00:02:19,210 --> 00:02:21,230 like high-speed stuff. If you make your 76 76 00:02:21,255 --> 00:02:23,250 doc look more like a movie, people will 77 77 00:02:23,250 --> 00:02:24,652 be touched more and they will 78 78 00:02:24,677 --> 00:02:26,490 feel more because they'll be in that 79 79 00:02:26,490 --> 00:02:28,481 mode of.This is going to make me feel 80 80 00:02:28,506 --> 00:02:30,654 more as a person just watching the news. 6857
