Script creation method

Camera shot scale

distant view

It involves capturing both the person and the environment within the frame, often used to showcase the time, setting, scale, and atmosphere of an event.

close-up

It refers to photographing the area from the chest up to the head of a person, which is very beneficial for capturing the facial expressions, demeanor, and even subtle movements of the subject.

midground

refers to the shot of a person from the knee up, focusing on showcasing the person's posture and demeanor.

panorama

refers to the entire human figure and the surrounding background, capable of expressing the environment in which the person is situated

close-up

It involves capturing details such as a person's eyes, nose, mouth, fingers, toes, and other such fine features, which is suitable for highlighting specific details that need to stand out.

content

Break down the script, placing the content within each scene.

dialogue

The script is the expression of words in front of the camera lens, playing a role of adding the finishing touch. It is suggested to use 60s short videos, and not to let the text exceed 160 characters, otherwise, it will sound particularly tiring.

duration

The duration of each shot should be clearly marked in advance, making it convenient to locate key points during editing and improve the efficiency of the editing process.

dolly shot

Cinematography refers to the movement of the camera. From close-up to distant, tracking shot, rotating shot, and so on.

Push forward and pull back.

Refers to moving the camera lens at a constant speed closer to or further away from the subject. Pushing in the lens is achieved by moving from a distance to a close-up, gradually changing the shot from a long shot, through medium shot, to a close-up, or even a close-up. This type of camera movement is easy to highlight the subject and allows the viewer's vision to gradually focus.

Cinematic panning shot

To capture an around-the-subject shot, it is necessary to keep the camera position fixed and rotate by moving the handheld stabilizer centered around the subject.

low-angle shot

Low-angle tracking shots simulate the perspective of a pet by capturing footage from a low angle, even close to the ground. The closer the camera gets to the ground, the stronger the sense of space becomes.

Prop

Props play a pivotal role in enhancing the overall effect, rather than being superfluous; do not let them overshadow the main subject's charm.
