Witness training video questions:
1. Three techniques you can use when trying to shoot steady shoots with out using a tripod are to shoot ten second shots so that you get enough footage, to keep your elbows close to your body and your knees bent slightly. Also do not wave the camera around hold it in one place.
2. To minimize camera shake while walking and taping you should keep you legs bend and body forward while walking straight and glide your feet. You can do the same when walking back. To walk to the side also glide crossing your legs gliding while bending your knees.
3. Camera movements that mimic eye movement are to not move you camera to quickly. Use wide settings when taking it everything and zoom when focusing on a subject. If you move, move straight across at eye level.
4. You should hold at shot for about ten seconds. It may feel long but will not seem long when watching it. Purposeful movements for the shot. Also do not move to quickly. Do not wave the camera around. Try to pick a shot that covers everything. If you need to move quickly make a swift straight movement to the side.
5. To avoid giving a sea sick feeling keep your camera steady and to not shack it. When you are trying to get everything in do not wave your camera up and down.
6. to avoid lighting problems to not shoot someone with the sun behind them or when it is very sunny. Cloudy days are better to shoot with outside.
7. Proximity is used to show the viewer what you are focusing on. A wide view shows where it is and close ups show what is being focused on.
8. Their mission is to open peoples eyes to the world and human rights. They put tape over the camera light so that they can capture things with out people knowing they are taping and can get the effect of what is it like where they are.
