Group Work: DP

This is such a fail because I've just discovered there's a reflection guide on the RMIT TV blog. I think I missed this. Which makes this entry a little bit late.

Anyway, on week 3 we were formed into groups for our last assessment, the short film. I got the Director of Photography position, which is the one I wanted. I am so thrilled because I've been always fascinated by cinematography works, especially the good ones. I joined a cinematography club when I was in high school, even though it was for a pretty short time, it was still a great experience. Moreover, after cinematography, I'm getting interested in photography up till now.

What's the job of Director of Photography?
They are the head of the camera department and it is their job to capture the photographic impression of the directors' vision

One of the DPs that I like is Bruno Delbonnel who was the DP of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince movie (2009). Actually I'm a fan of Harry Potter and have been reading the books and watching the saga but from all of the Harry Potter movies released, I like the Half-Blood Prince the most, in technical way. I mean, the cinematography was just awesome! Bruno Delbonnel definitely went with a whole different way on depicting the world of Harry Potter.

Long story short, I'm so excited for the final project!
