For an Introduction to Film class students had to choose a scene
from any movie to show to recreate, in order to show their
technique and editing skills. Ashli Sartorelli chose a powerful
scene from How To Get Away With Murder, and these are the results!
Enjoy! 
For my Intro to Film class I had to do a scene recreation.
I chose a scene from Fleabag, which is one of the most well-written
shows I have seen in a long time. I tried to get a near shot for shot
match, but in some parts it differs a little from the original.
Enjoy
For their Introduction to Film class students had to combine footage from their experimental
films with footage from their classmates and then re-edit them into new videos.
These are the results.
For my experimental I wanted to make the audience feel something strongly. We recently set up a studio at Webster that students can use for photo and film shoots, so I knew that I wanted to use that location and have all of my shots be very clean and minimalistic. Through the speed of the cuts and the sound design I wanted to build up intensity throughout the video and show the audience what anxiety can sometimes feel like. It might not be comfortable for everyone to watch, but that’s exactly the point.
I reccomend headphones for the full effect of the sound.
Enjoy!!
This is a short Experimental Film I have created with the intention of learning better how to edit videos. I wanted a creation that made no sense yet was entertaining at the same time. My base video is the video of me sitting in the shower. Once I had my base, the sky was the limit and I had the opportunity to experiment with all types of effects. Creating the song was an interesting process too as the video does not truly have a storyline, I felt that the music didn’t have to either. For this reason, there are about four different types of rhythms which are all timed when a new effect or transition occurs. Aside from two videos that were taken during the time I shot the base of the movie, the other overlayed videos come from footage that I previously had. It was not easy to select pre-existing footage that could work and fit properly with the videos I already had.
Overall, I accomplished my goal and I was able to integrate: transitions, text, color, black and white footage, filters, music, special effects, overlays, slow motion, fast speed, and more. It was an extremely and exciting process and I would love to make something similar again.
I hope you enjoy it!
