For my investigation, I will be looking at the director of The Eric Andre Show, Kitao Sakurai because I am planning of making my next film in the same genre as it. Adult Swim's Tim and Eric, Amazing Show! Great job and The Eric Andre Show ushered in a new era of on-screen comedy. Their new perspectives were so irradiated, shocking, non-linear, and "random" that explaining them seemed impossible. Those who "get it" are part of a community whose bond is unspoken and whose litmus test is laughter. You understand what cannot be explained, what tickles you not through logic but through the unexpected and awkward pauses in its rhythms. However, this ineffable thing you consume has been painstakingly prepared, not blindly, highly intuitively, by a group of artists. Kitao Sakurai, the mind (where one might not assume) behind The Eric Andre Show, does some of the articulating everyone has failed at. It turns out that randomness on-screen necessitates a great deal of di...

In my next film, I plan on shooting with at least two cameras. In the beginning, I'm planning on using a TV set to make it look like I'm filming a real public access show and I would like to have two different shots of the set. Later on in the film, I'm going to be filming somewhere else to do the cooking portion of the story but still plan on using two cameras. So for my investigation, I looked into how multi-camera is done in the best way. Multi-camera refers to any cinematography technique in which more than one camera is utilized to capture video. A multi-camera shoot typically comprises of 3-4 cameras all pointing at the same topic. The central cameras focus on a wide shot, allowing you to see the whole location or set, the ou ter cameras are used for close-ups on the subject, capturing the details of the action. However, depending on the subject and the director, multi-camera setups can be used in a variety of ways. There are two types of multi-camera filmmaking appr...
Speed Ramps- Blog Investigation & Work Log 12/5

In my film, I am planning on adding speed ramps in a few scenes in the montage. Speed ramping is the process of gradually adjusting the speed of a video clip over time. Mainly to slow a clip down to slow motion and then to speed it up again. Speed ramping, sometimes known as The Matrix effect, allows you to easily shift between rapid and slow motion. You can even customize the rate of transition between the two speeds, choosing between a smooth and gradual slowdown or a swift and instantaneous flip. Frame Rate: If you want to produce a good-looking speed ramp, make sure your movie was taken at a high frame rate. You don't have to rent a high-speed camera like the Phantom Flex, but you should capture your photographs at a faster frame rate than your baseline (most likely 24 fps). Most cameras can record at 60 frames per second, 120 frames per second, or even 240 frames per second. The faster you can slow down your footage in post-production, the higher the frame rate. For me,...
