Jose Rodriguez: Samuel Moaz, Mater Class, Extra Credit

-
Attending Samuel Moaz master was an experience that helped me better understand what makes a good director. What interested me the most about this master class was learning about the life of a director. I consider him to have a very interesting and inspirational life, being raise in a not so wealthy family who were holocaust survivor, yet he never let anything stop him from pursuing his love for film. Ever since he was a kid, he always loves film and he constantly practice filming with his father, something which shows me that he really loves what he was doing, and he had a lot of passion for filming. This make me realized that passion is one of the most important qualities needed to succeed in a filming career. I also learned many tips on making a good film. For example, I learned that the best way to show emotion is through the expression of the actors rather what they are saying, also it is important to use narrow point of views it you want to focus better on the character and no...

Jose Rodriguez's Blog 4

The lecture with Kirsten Johnson was a very interesting lecture, it was very different from what I was expecting. Even though she puts me and other students in the spot, I still liked her presentation, she went around asking student individual questions, something which I believed help keep students engaged and curious to who she will got next. I liked when she talked about her film making process, how she mentions that she got down on the floor just to get a shot of some carrots, and there were even some children who were laughing at her.

This shows how a filmmaker is always trying different positions to find the perfect angle for the shots. I also liked when she mention that every filmmaker has their own way of filming, like when she used the example of a friends of her who is very short yet is an amazing filmmaker because she is able to film in her own unique way thanks to her short hei...

Jose Rodriguez's Kirsten Johnson - Cameraperson Extra credit

-
On the film Cameraperson you can tell, how much people trust Kirsten Johnson. For example, there is a clip of a girl telling Johnson what it means to be a single mother, how difficult it is, how she been going through this for 19 months. She talks about how having another child would stop her from doing what she wants to do in life, the girl being interview even spoke about what she wants to do for a career tin her future. I consider the fact that was willing to speak about all these personal subjects with Johnson to be an example of how much they trust each other. When the girl started crying you can hear Ms. Johnson comforting her from behind the camera. To the women being interview Johnson was more than just a person with a camera, she was a friend. Another example was an interview that she did on Sarajevo, Bosnia to a Muslim woman who was a former resident of Foca, Bosnia. In this interview the women spoke about what she went through while living at Partizan, in Foca. The Muslim wo...
