Camera movement and editing

Image
 1.  2:58 to 3:02 t he camera movement is suddenly handheld and edgy, signalling the tension and danger to the audience. This adds realism and suspense and contrasts strongly with the smooth camera movement of the end in the scene. The audience to feel like it was happening to them and analyse the scene so thinking about the next move. 1.(b) 3:17 to 3:20 The smooth track or dolly shot as they walk to the table and makes the audience feel as if they are joining the party and includes them in it and it makes equal decisions.  1.(c) 2:18 to 2:21 this shows that the handheld and smooth camera movement shows the audience how hard he is trying to fight back and escape from the dramatic situation.  2.(a) 2:19 he was trying to escape from them but those flying gears they have makes it even harder to escape from them and it makes the audience think how he can escape from this situation. 2.(b) 1:49 the audience thinks this is where the guy got caught but he could try to e...

Camerawork: Blog Tasks

  this is a two shot because it shows that there are two people in the scene and it shows that they are in a serious talk or a waited talk this describes them as lazy/or not hard working this make them the audience feel bored and not really listened parts.  this is over the shoulder and this shows that the shot was taken for above the shoulder and this creates a move that could cause the scene to go to climax type of a scene and the audience would think of its also a close up shot and this shows that the the work that has been they doing shows it will makes and creation of an illusion to the audience making some people confused. this is a close up shot and it creates a scene where the audience feels that the work they have been doing is very important and i look like they are in a problem and really need a solution to solve this and it is also kind of a medium close up shot too. this is a high angle shot and it is used for making the person feel weak and less power and it is r...

Mise-en-scene: Blog tasks

  Costume : The character at the start is wearing a white lab coat. This suggests to the audience that he was working in a science lab ,this makes the audience feel like the guy from the start could be running from what he done wrong in the lab or maybe he was left abandoned in the lab. Make-up : The character at the start is has messy hair while running. This could show that the character in the start was my seriously wanted to escape and trying not to get found. This may cause the audience to get that the antagonist is the monster shown in the start. Setting : The setting has been created in dark blue weather .This means it may help them create the monster a bit hidden and make it unknown with no proof given. This creates a kind of an illusion to the audience that it may cause fear because its has a scene in the night where they are sent alone to home by themselves and making its more suitable for the director to create the kid in dramatic scene.

  I choose this picture because its very dark theme and its very much has most of the colour needed, and its for summer group of  cold drinks united together its kind of vibrant colours, its looks very realistic also is looks like it was made on a mountain because of its 4k picture used for its theme it makes it very realistic + each cold drink has a different flavours of each with it so it makes it more easy to get more colour on the parrot.
