Camera Shots

Reel, Unreel.

Aly's Reel/Unreel was a very believable continuity edit. He made us believe that these kids really did run around their entire town with the ease that the camera followed them. The different camera angle techniques helped us believe it was non-stop.
The subtext could be seen as the real representing life as a series of events and the film representing the memories that peoples have of those events. Having one boy unreeling them and the other reeling the same events back up could mean that as much as we try to keep historical events in place and honest, they can become misconstrued(the film being dragged through the fire and broken).
Ive seen this mini film before so the second time seeing it I did catch different things, but at times it still lost my attention. I think it is well thought out and the camera angles were believable.

Light Meter

  Light Meter 
A light meter is used to measure the intensity of the light entering the camera and is used to help the photographer expose a "correct" exposure. I put quotes around "correct" because the photographer can choose to ignore the light meter to make an exposure that they want. if they want a darker image, they will increase the shutter speed even if the camera is telling them to decrease it. With this exercise, by pointing the camera at different objects in the scene and taking the "correct" light meter reading, and applying it to the entire image, should result in the original object being a middle grey.
