Speical Subject

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Star Wars New Hope 1977

The first shot is from the film New Hope which shows Luke Skywalker played by Mark Hanmil standing out on the desert planet Tattooween looking up at the two suns.

The shot shows off the location which is is very empty and the figure looking into the distance.  The colours look  warm, the  shot for me gives the sense of Hope and a look of Luke’s Journey ahead of him.  A farm boy wanting more than the life of  Tattoween; he wants an adventure.

 

The Dark Knight 2008

In this shot you see Batman looking down by the fire on top of rubble after he has failed to save Rachael. The colouring  in the shot is  very dark and moody showing us Batman’s sorrow; this shows off Christopher Nolan’s Style of film making. There are a lot of blues and blacks in this shot which work well. The brightness of the fire emphasizes  the shot making the dark a little more colourful. I think the shot shows Batman alone to deal with his grieve. Batman himself also becomes one with the background, as he  almost blends in because of the similar colours.

Black Swan  2010

 

 

A Nightmare on Elm Street 1984

Batman Returns 1992

In this shot we have Catwomen who is played by Michelle Phieffer, and Batman played by Michael Keaton confronting each other in a sexual manner. The background is very creepy and Gothic as Tim Burton uses this imagery a lot in his films and shots. The darks and lights work well together and both characters are nicely framed. This helps to show  Catwomen as the more dominant and stronger character in this shot, therefore a strong female lead,.

 

 

The Shinning 1980

Mad Max Fury Road  2015

The Lion King 1994

Star Wars Empire Strikes Back 1980

This is the end shot of Empire Strikes Back before the credits roll which shows Luke Skywalker, played by Mark Hanmil, Leia played by Carrie Fisher, C3p0 played by Anthony Daniels and R2D2 played by Kenny Baker, looking out onto the galaxy. It shows looking out to see the uncertainty of what will happen next.  It also shows Luke with his arms around Leia comforting her.

The shadows over and below the characters work very well on this shot.

 

American Beauty 1999

Task.3

Task.5

My throughts on the documentary that Made Cinema Experiences. 

I felt when looking back at my documentary that the opening part of lam talking is out of sync and does not come back into sync until Josh comes onto screen.

I also felt that is was more like a interview rather than a documentary it felt like two subjects were being interviewed through out.

The fades to black you see throughout the documentary don’t really work but are more put in to try and cover up jump cuts rather than put in to make the documentary look better.

I had more filmed for my documentary but a lot had to be put onto the cutting room floor to fit into the five minute time. For example so the scenes that are cut are Liam talking about films He thought 3d worked in such as Mad Max Fury Road and Aviator.

also what I didn’t like was the documentary suddenly ended not really giving a real ending again this is to do with time.

How Sarah Wesson Viewed My Documentary.

I shown my documentary to a LSA at Brooksby Melton College Sarah Wesson these are her Thoughts on the documentary.

Like me Sarah also felt the documentary was more like a interview rather than documentary.

What  Sarah felt was the subjects Liam and Josh were always in the same location and postion she would like it if they change in scenes it keep her as viewer more interested.

Sarah also said that Liam’s Shooting position was better and the background worked better with him.

Sarah said that the lighting and the picture quality was very good and well done.

Sarah pointed out that the choice of clips I  choose were good but there timing could of been better and better synced the example which she gave was when Liam was talking about Barney the Movie, Rugrats and The early the Harry potter the clips were shown to late. which I agreed with.

Sarah also picked up on the narration at the start stating that was to quiet.

She felt the two subjects Liam and Josh both acted in front of the camera well saying that they were both relaxed, Funny and informative.

She also liked the clip of Spiderman 2 with Liam describing the clip. but it was a shame the description of the clip did not match the clip it’s self.

Sarah also mention it was sometimes out of sync and did not like how it snap Moffat the end. She was also not sure if it was meant to be a capital CI in the title of the documentary.

Her final thoughts of documentary was that it was overall a really good documentary and it was interesting begging of the documentary.

Above is the document Sarah wrote on her views of the documentary. Sarah Wesson Review.

My Overall thoughts are it was a real documentary and it could of been edited and sync better but overall I am happy with the end result and Liam and Josh perform well in the documentary.
