For this assignment you will be required to create a short, documentary style video post that will be available on Instagram Page https://www.instagram.com/memorytales/ and Memory-Tales website (https://memory-tales.com/ ). In this series of articles you will find all the important technical aspects and general information you need to know before you start the shoot.
Going into this assignment you will get to choose between two different aspect ratios (dimensions) for your video. It’s up to you to decide which one will be best to tell your story. Once you decide, you will need to keep it in mind while shooting. As those videos will be uploaded to an instagram page, there are very specific technical aspects that you will have to follow, including frame size, file size and delivery.
