Plushie 1
After School
This is my first plushie called "After School." Before that, I haven't shot or made any film. I chose the little horse because it looks nice and cute and I like him. When I first got out to film, I had no idea on what I was gonna film about.
The first scene is near the stairs, on the handrail. I moved the camera from the stairs in a far lens of the horse and change to a closer shot. Thinking about the nice weather out I decided to shoot about the horse playing outside. There are two scenes of the horse walking out of the doors. I controlled the horse to move and shot it from above without my hand in it.
I shot the horse in different positions and posts from different angles: on the stones, the grass, the bench, and the deck chair; from left to right, close to far, up to down.
I suddenly saw a flower and it's really cute. I came up with the idea about the friendship between the horse and the flowers. With the accompany of his "friends", the little horse no longer feel lonely and bored.
To fit this happy and warm scenes, I chose a gay music. The process of making and editing the film was a lot of fun and I'm proud.

Plushie 2
We
This is my second plushie called "We". I feel like I got a better control and a story line this time. The photography site I chose is mostly in the library and outside. The story is about a cat becomes friend with a dog when reading a book in the library.
The first scene is the gate of the library, I moved the camera from below to above. To draw forth the cat, I started with shooting the bookshelf from left to right from a far lens and changed to a close lens of books shooting from right to left and to the cat. I used the similar way to show the movement of the cat by moving the cat with it’s head in camera.
The following cuts show how the cat meet the dog and they become friends. I moved the camera a lot from cat to dog and to both of them. After that, I shot different scenes of both of them hanging out together in different angles and positions.
