DESCRIPTION: This was my final project for cinematography, a scene recreation from a live action film. I transcribed the original scene and made a script of the scene in screenplay format, created a shot list from the original scene, casted talent, and directed them. My main goal was to practice working with actors to produce a certain effect, in this case, awkwardness, and use blocking and tone as an indicator of that effect.
