We were asked to look for an anti racism PSA*

At the beginning it there is calm music and it show peoples shadows asking why people are racist to them. Then it shows someone covering up graffiti that says racism. Then it goes to people saying that they believe that  they can stop racism.

The main focus of the video is the impact of prejudice discrimination

video sequincing article


We were asked to read an article on video sequencing
I learned that with video sequencing you have to learn and practice it you can’t just do it there is lots of planning and strategy involved. Video sequencing is used to shorten and simplify a video clip, which keeps your attention so it does not bore your viewers. An example would be instead of having someone walking down the stairs to their kitchen making bacon then eating it (which would take about 2 minutes) you could film 2 seconds of the person’s feet going down the stairs. Then a quick shot of him entering the kitchen, a shoot of bacon sizzling in a pan, and finally him putting a piece of bacon in his mouth, and chewing.  Sequencing makes a video easier to watch, and more interesting, but it’s something that takes lots of training and practice
