A Day as a Nanny: Quarantine Video Story

I chose to spotlight the most prominent person I spend time with during quarantine and that is the 1 year-old I nanny for, Gabriel. I spend majority of my time with him every day of the week, therefore I wanted to share his daily routine as the focus of my video story.

At work I chose to take different shots of Gabriel as he lived his everyday life. The only issue being, getting longer, steady shots of a 1 year-old before they swipe at the camera or just plain leave the frame can be very difficult. Working with subjects who can be easily distracted or when there is a barrier of true communication, not fully understanding what is going on, capturing clean shots poses several challenges.

In an attempt to double as care-taker and videographer I tried to compile the cleanest shots I could get as Gabriel was in action, following the story of his daily life.

Enjoy!!

Sunshine Study Session Video Shoot

For this exercise, I chose to feature different outlooks composed with a variety of shots of student, Sophia Facione as she studies. I only had access to an iPhone 8+ camera, so getting a clear, still and framed image posed a bigger challenge.

Stay healthy and enjoy the outdoors this quarantine while you get some studying done!!
