Stumpy Joe

Exercise for Juxtaposition and Rhythm

For this exercise the class paired up and the small groups each wrote a short story.
then two pairs joined up and we were tasked with meshing the two stories together.
It's all about juxtaposition, parallel story lines, etc.

Got a lot of practice using the NLE on this one.
Pulling in the clips, sorting out the dross, and sending clips out to AE for colour work.

Our final exercise was to create a trailer for our scripts.
