Research & Planning: Aperture Test

Aperture is 'the size of the opening in the lens when a picture is taken.' This means that when you hit the shutter button on the camera a hole opens up to allow your camera image sensor to catch a glimpse of what you want to capture. We decided to look at aperture as it would allow us to change the depth of field in the shot, we felt that this would be a good idea as it would enable us to focus on the narrator and give his surroundings a blurry, out focus to add effect and make sure that the narrator stands out and is more poignant, giving him control over the product.
