Through the Lens

Jill asked us to take a look at the world through a camera of some sort, I used my cellphone to get a driving angle. I've always been a fan of these sorts of shots, I suppose I enjoy pretending what it would be like to actually be a fly on a car during a chase scene. I also included an angle that I got at Gibson Hall under one of the glass sinks in the restrooms. I was unsure about any of the dreadful audio that my camera captured so I made a quick beat using Garageband, loops are pretty simple to work with.

Jorge: An Introduction

I started to film things when I was eleven, My parents gave me the family camcorder to capture Birthdays and special events. Soon I found out that my mom did not like the things I was capturing, she would tell me that the camera work was shaky or that I was focusing on the wrong things. I put down the camera and let it collect dust for a few years. In High School I was enrolled in Film Production and Film Analysis, taught by now independent filmmaker Derrick Lee Sims.

I suppose this is getting a bit word heavy so I'll wrap it up by introducing my demo reel from 2008. I hope to significantly change and improve this by the time this class is over.

First Post: Storyboards

The story boards I made are relatively simple. Id like to hear some feed back about what I am planing on doing. So here you go.
