Advanced Portfolio

And after finding the actors it will be much easier for me to create a plot with characters taken from my actors.

Sometimes a camera does tilt movement to show the whole body of robot. During the extract the titles with green numbers are seen which again approves that it had an impact on ''Matrix''. After the beginning of the scene the camera uses mostly medium and long shots except some moments when it has to focu...

The only thing that I failed to do was the microphone sound because it all sounded very quiet so I thought that it would be even less heard. As a result, I left it the way it is. But hope that it won't disturb anyone.
