Composition Summary

What are three things that you've learned about in the camera and composition unit? What are two things that you still have questions about? What is one thing you want to learn more about?

I learned how to adjust the white balance on the camera using the buttons and a white surface, use an ND filter when it is too bright outside, and follow the Hitchcock rule when appropriate for the time and story. I especially found the Hitchcock rules interesting because his rule made so much sense and nearly applied to all filmmaking.

I still have questions about the different menus and the functions of some of the buttons on a camera. There are many button on the camera that that serve the same function as another button on a camera. I don't understand when to use one over the other. I also do not understand what the difference is between an EX1 and an EX3 besides the shape of it. Is one better for one purpose and is the other better for another purpose?

I want to learn more about screen direction. It was very interesting to know that antagonists usually move from right to left, as opposed to protagonists who usually move left to right. I was curious about the other different theories regarding screen direction.
