On the first video they said you don't have to draw perfect people, stick figures are fine. On the second video they were saying not to move your camera around too much, just like you were telling Timmy and I, Miss Williams.
Some things that I learned and can apply to my videography is that a storyboard provides a solid foundation to your movie. You can think of a storyboard as a visual map. Teamwork is very important in making a storyboard. Everyone should agree on one thing to make it a lot more fun. A storyboard gives an order. Everyone can work on it together.- Tim M.
In the second movie I learned that everything in the frame has a purpose. One thing you want to be thinking when you are videoing is why you are putting the camera in the spot that you are putting it in. The setting is going to tell about the character. You don't want to get up in the power of being a director. Actors have to understand why the character is acting like it is.- Tim M.
A storyboard... Is a blueprint for your video. Is a fast and easy way to communicate visually. Is what you're putting on the bigscreen. Allows you to work as a team and get different ideas.
On the second video they were saying that everything in the frame will be assumed (by the audience) that you put it there and has meaning. Your project is 100% dependent on the quality of the video you shoot. The better you understand your camera the more efficient you will be on the set. The most common error with new cinematograohers is that they do too much with the camera.
Story boards are so good because they save so much time. If you don't have a story board, then the one person who has the idea will have it in his head, and nobody else can see it. They will have to keep asking that one person what to do next, and it might get confusing, and even the person with the idea might not know exactly what type of shots he wants. So after watching this movie, and seeing how even professionals use story boards, I can see how important they are!
As said on previous comments, lighting is so important. You want to make sure that you you have those three kind of lights: key light, fill light, and backlight. Also, your background and design are very important, and can tell the audience a lot about your story. They can put any atmosphere you want on your movie. For example, for a nativity story, you wouldn't have harsh lights and harsh backgrounds while shooting in the stable, with nice animals and a sweet baby. But when shooting the seen with Herod's soldiers killing the children, then you could have reds and black and harsh things.

Here are three really good hits I can immediately put into practice as a cinematographer:
1:Every object in the shot has a purpose.
2: The most common error in cinematography is that people running the camera do to much with the camera.
3: Focus on the Story. Don't become distracted by the technical details.
I'm excited to put these into practice in class!
Good comment Rose. If you remember to focus on those three points, your videos will definitely improve.

Here are some of the things that I learned in these videos.
1. A storyboard helps visualize what you are going to put on the big screen.
2. Everyone can work on the story board together.
3. Everything in the frame has a purpose.
4. Try not to touch the camera too much before you know what you are doing.

These videos said that a story board helps to keep every on the same page while making a video.
