ISO Experiment

ISO 100 - Over the shoulder/ISO 1600 - Pan Shot

As this was the first time I had experimented with the ISO and aperture on a camera it was difficult to know exactly what to do to alter the image when exposed to different lights. However although it was more first time I still feel I was able to shoot 2 rather effective video's which clearly show the experimentation of different ISO on the camera. I feel my strengths whilst recording this was that I ensure that the image recorded stayed in focus throughout the duration of the clip, this is a strength because if the shot was out of focus the video would not show the change in lighting and ISO as well. Another strength I would say was my ability to pick to particular shot types in order to film. 

My overall weakness was monitoring the light exposure of an image, it took me more than 2 attempts of filming to get the lighting and exposure right to make the subject within the video visible. Technical challenges I faced throughout this task were being able to alter settings on the camera itself, this was mainly due to the fact that this was the first time I had been introduced to things like exposure, ISO and Aperture. By continuously altering settings and shooting a few different video's I was eventually able to understand ISO in  an image, this can be seen in my final video's of ISO 100 and ISO 1600. These video's made purely to help my understanding of ISO, and by creating video's at different ISO's I was able to achieve this understanding. Overall to improve my video's I need to improve my knowledge of light exposure so I am able to control lighting more and therefore have a better picture on my video's.
