7a - Video Reflection and Video Links

Our Joke videos can be watched here:

Joke 1

Joke 2

Our videos had a great deal of contrast and affinity between the two. Since they were both based on the same joke, the videos had very similar characteristics in the storyline and the same characters used in both videos. They were different in that we used two completely different takes on the same joke and because of that the videos each have their own individual feel.
In video one, we used virtual lines when the mom and son are interacting because they are never really looking at each other in the same shot but instead are cut to when they are looking over at the other.
The second video does a good job of using lines to break up the background and frame the characters in the video more. It also utilizes movement to show the depth of the space we shot in when Johnny walks from the battle ground up closer to the camera when he goes to his "room." Also, while he is in his room, the viewer has to think actively (rather than didacticly) while Johnny tries to decide what his next move will be.
