Camera movement and editing

 1)   Pick  three   aspects of  camera movement  in the Minority Report clip. Identify the  type  of camera movement and write about why the director chose to use that camera movement in the scene and what effect it has on the audience. Three camera movements the director uses are tilts, crane movements, and tracking shots. Tilts are used when the camera moves up or down. The director might use this to show the size of something or to focus on a character’s reaction. It helps the audience understand how important something is or how the character feels in that moment. Crane movements are when the camera moves high above the scene. This type of movement is good for showing the setting or making the characters look small and controlled by their surroundings. It helps the audience see the bigger picture and understand the atmosphere of the scene. Tracking shots follow a character as they move. The director uses this to make the audience fe...

  WWW: Great to see that you have gone back and completed some of the tasks that were previously not done. This shows great dedication to the subject and hopefully will lead to a great result next year. Next Steps: - Please go back over your posts and change the titles to match the tracker above. This will just make information easier to find in the future. - Please combine your 2 Mise-en-scene posts. This just puts all of the same topic into the same place for future revision. - Begin to personalise your blog. This is going to be your workbook for the next 2 years. Use the layout and theme tools on blogger to alter the site to reflect your personality. - Go back to your first LIAR analysis on the movie poster and try to apply some of our most recent knowledge to the ‘Language’ part of this analysis. Consider Mise-en-scene and Camera Shots/Angles especially.

 1. Three Camera Shots       This a six shot and it is to show the audience a group call had between the collective, it is impactful because it shows us what is happening within the conversation. This specific shot called  a close up. It's purpose is to show the audience the emotion on her face to help us further understand her as a person. This shot is called an extreme close up. The director implemented this to show us the severity and pressure this man is in right now to fix what has happened within the situation.It makes the audience understand the severity of the situation. 2) Pick  one  camera  angle  that is used in the scene, take a screenshot and explain the effect it has on the audience.  The affect the birdseye camera angle has on the audience is that it helps us see the full surroundings and allows us to feel as if we are in the same position as the actor. It brings a more realistic feeling towards the audience. 3.  Pick...

Mis - en- scene

      In the first eight minutes of  Stranger Things , the costume, lighting, and setting all work together to create a strong atmosphere and give the audience clues about the story. The boys wear typical 1980s clothes like jumpers, jeans, and puffer jackets, which shows  that the show is set in the past and suggests a feeling of childhood, normal life, and nostalgia, helping the audience connect with them as regular kids. The lighting in the Hawkins lab is dark, with flickering lights and shadows, which shows (denotation) that something is wrong and gives the audience a creepy, tense feeling (connotation), warning us that danger is near. The setting switches between the scary lab and the boys' cosy basement. The lab shows (denotation) a cold, secretive place, while the basement shows a warm, safe space where the boys are just having fun. This contrast  tells the audience that the normal world is about to be disturbed by something strange and dangerous. The...
