Two things i already knew:
1) the rule of thirds-"The is that an image should be imagined as divided into nine equal parts by two equally-spaced horizontal lines and two equally-spaced vertical lines, and that important compositional elements should be placed along these lines or their intersections"
2) grab good bites- a sound bite is a short phrase your interviewee gives

Two things i now have learned:
1) Use Trucking ShotsTrucking or dolly shots move with the action.
2)

Shooting repetitive action in sequence is another way to tell a story, build interest or create

suspense.

Some things she enjoys are listening to music, hanging out with friends, watchingher favorite t.v shows including, "glee", and the recently ended "glee project".
