tuesday the 15th november.

Today we looked at haiku poems we looked at 3 different poems and then did a film with something to do with the poem, for example these are the three poems i chose and what i filmed to go along with them;

1. the butterflies dance
brilliant colours of the rainbow
rippling like water
         -for this one i filmed the trees swaying in the wind as if the leaves were the butterflies.
i filmed the flowers as the colours because of all the different colours of the flowers.
and i also filmed a tap running as the water rippling.
         -I didn't think that this video was the best one because from my point of view the tap running at the end of the video ruined it because it was the only part of the video that had nothing to do with nature.


2. in the garden
the old man dances
behind the butterflies

-for this video i filmed the grass with all the autumn leaves on the ground as the garden. I then filmed a tree that looked all wrinkly as the old man and the sky behind some frozen berries as "behind the butterflies"

-I think this video was quite creative because i used a tree that looked like it was wrinkly as the old man because if you see wrinkles you would instantly think of an old person. and i also liked the end of the video because i think the frozen berries were really pretty so they made you think of butterflies.


3.
unknown to the birds and butterflies
a flower blooms
the autumn sky

-for this video i filmed some birds flying for the first sentence and then a pretty flower on its own for the second sentence, for the last part i filmed 2 seconds of the sky then 3 seconds of the camera gradually moving down on to a tree so you could see the contrast in colours from the sky and the autumn coloured leaves.
-I liked this video because they weren't all just still shots, and also when i filmed the flower the sun shone onto the flower and it made it look like it was blooming.

A haiku poem consist of 3 lines and they have 5 syllables in the first sentence then 7 then 5 again.
