Learning Event 2:
DESCRIBE MOTION PICTURE TECHNIQUES
1.
Camera techniques for uncontrolled action must be mastered in order to
film combat or tactical training documentation. The same basic style applies
to both training and actual wartime documentation. All the techniques used to
film in peacetime are also used in wartime or tactical conditions.
Composition, depth of field, cut-ins, cut aways, screen direction, basic
sequence and exposure are still required when shooting COMDOC.
The main
difference is that the surroundings are hostile and you may not always be able
to shoot exactly as you wish due to battlefield situations.
a. Composition is an important part of documentation photography.
All
the techniques you know concerning framing, arranging, and elements of the
scene are required when possible. There are times when this is not possible.
Keep in mind the following points on composition.
(1) Four lines of composition include; horizontal, which indicates
peace and quiet; vertical that indicates strength and power; diagonal which
indicates force and action; and curved which indicates grace and charm (fig 1-
1).
