Lights Camera Action

 Monday 29th November 2021

Learning Objective:

To Explore the use of setting and colour in films.

Setting

Why might a director choose the following settings?

An isolated house in a rural setting for a horror film - you're by yourself , no help, you are left by yourself in an unfamiliar setting with a killer or antagonist of the film.

A big city for an action film - action films are normally the protagonist trying to save people/ peoples so a city is a good place also for some destruction because of the crowds of people and the traffic etc.

A small seaside town for a romantic comedy - the 2 people will see each other again if its a small area, a aesthetic scenery/setting to match the vibe of the film.

A range of different country for an action/adventure film - the range of countries contributes to the adventure because of the different cultures and loads of locations for different settings for people to fight or run from bad people.

A large modern science laboratory for a science film - links to the science vibe of the film and could lead to maybe a science   experiment gone wrong or something along those lines.

Colour

Why might a director choose the following colours?

Blue and red for a new superhero costume - these colours are quite bright and already symbolise heroes like superman, wonder woman, captain america.

A black suit for a villain - a villain associates with dark because dork symbolises mystery and dark evil. A black suit can also blend in with shadows which can help them hide in the background and normally with fighting its normally 'light side beating dark side'.

Bright colours for a comedy film - bright colours are quite upbeat and uplifting and symbolise happiness, for example if u put dark, depressing colours in a comedy film you wouldn't be able to tell it was a comedy and it would bring down the happy mood.

Setting and Colour

Where does this action take place? - Takes place in the city and at their headquarters

Why is this story taken in this place? - For action, destruction to get the viewers attention. 

When and How does the setting change? - It changes multiple times when they go to their headquarters and go back in time etc.

How does the setting affect the characters? - In the city they are enraged and ready to fight any threat but in their headquarters they are sensible and tame.

How could u tell where the story was taken place? - Change of atmosphere, colour and mood, as well as seeing the setting in the background.

Could the same story of have happened in a different setting? -  I don't think so because a big city was a good place for the action that happened because of the risk of people and the actual city.

When is the story taken place? - The story is taken place in the future because of the advance technology like spaceships and guns etc.

Is the story in the future or past? - In this film its a difficult question to answer but the original plot they are in the future but then they go into the past but that is not shown in the trailer.

Why are certain colours used? - Some of the costumes are used for villain characters and hero characters to represent if they are evil or bad and the colours really represent of atmosphere and mood.

Are any colours associated with certain characters? - When all the characters change into matching costumes the white and red symbolise they are good, the white for innocence and purity and the red to symbolise the avengers because that is their main colours.

Are the colours important in a film? - Yes because they represent the mood of the film and give more of a clue of whats going on.

What would the film be like in black and white? - I think it would dull the film down a lot and not give it as much excitement or joy, it would get rid of the mood of the film and make it less enjoyable.

I AM LEGEND movie poster - what tells you what genre it is? - Its an action because he has a gun in an isolated bleak landscape.

28 days later movie poster - what tells you what genre it is? -  horror film, zombie film because of the infection symbol and the singular person walking alone.

Raiders movie poster - what tells you what genre it is? - Adventure because of the tomb vibe / desert setting with the sandy colours and torches and the title 'the lost ark' suggesting he will be looking for said ark.

Get creative

The setting would be of an underground lab which is very futuristic and protected to keep them away from the deadly virus. Everyone would be wearing masks to stop the spread of the virus if it somehow gets into their lab. Every room is air tight with small vents connecting to an outer storage unit on the main land. There is a data base of  everyones names to keep track and multiple machines to test the virus and see if anyone has it daily. There are corrupt people in the lab that are willing to do whatever they need to survive for themselves. For themselves not others. Including this one scientists who have been taking people from outside the lab and testing the virus on them and seeing if he can cure it. Not only could this be dangerous and spread to others but it is inhumane. He has a dirty lab coat and scruffy hair almost with a sadistic crazy look on his face. His lab is filled with test tubes of blood and chambers of people with alive people with the virus and dead normal un affected people. While the rest of the lab is clean and white.

I chose these colours because the regular lab using white gives off a gives off a very clean vibe but with the red and bodies in the evil scientists lab it suggests something bad is happening because its not like the rest of the environment.

Photoshoot

Learning Objective:

To explore different styles of photography

Planning - 

Reflection - Reflecting Face of the computer screen 

Patterns in Nature - Symmetry in the brick wall outside / stairs

Ground level - Shot of the stairs from the top

Framing of the shot - Nature / plants outside

Looking up - Looking up shot of a building 

I think the images would of turned out better if it was better or worse weather the cloudy weather didn't help i think that the shots would be better if it was sunny or raining. Other than that i think the only thing that could improve the images is more practice so we could get better shots and more nature environment around us.

Homework

This movie poster is the captain marvel film. 

The colours red and blue suggest that she is a heroic and good character and the star in the back symbolises her costume as the same star is in the middle of the costume.

The glowing and her hair floating suggest she is very powerful and is ready to fight anyone as she is also in a fighting stance.

Sound in film 

Learning Objective: 

To use the use of sounds in films

What kind of music would your hear in ? -

 A horror film -  Eerie music, creepy music too make the atmosphere more scary and to create tension

An action film - Heroic music, a music sequence for getting prepared to fight and get the viewer excited

A thriller - thrilling music to get the viewers excited.

A comedy film - Upbeat and happy music to lighten the mood and atmosphere.

A science fiction film - maybe mysterious music to make the viewers intrigued to what the main character is doing.

What kind of sound effects would you hear in ? -

A horror film - Footsteps, loud jump scares , screaming 

An action film - Gunshots , Explosions , chaos 

A thriller - Running , Loud footsteps 

A comedy film - Laughter 

A science fiction film - Fizzy of chemicals 

There are 2 types of sounds in a film - Diegetic and Non-Diegetic

Diegetic - Diegetic sound is any sound that emanates from the story world of the film. The source of diegetic sound doesn't necessarily need to be seen on screen, as long as the audience understands that it is coming from something within the film.

Non Diegetic - Sometimes called commentary or non-literal sound, non-diegetic sound is any type of sound that does not specifically exist within the world of the film itself. In other words, it's the type of sound that characters in a film are not able to hear, but that we can.

Diegetic - 

• Speaking                                        
•    Something flying through the wind 
• Gunshot 
• Motorbike engine 
• Cat 
• Finger click 
• Screaming 
• Glass Breaking 

Non Diegetic - 

• Voice Over - Narration 
•  Music 
• Screeching Sound Effects  
• Pin-drop 
• Explosion in your mind
•  Drums 
•  Singing 
•  Guitar 
•  Punching sound 
• Faster drum beat - tensions rising 

Foley

 Most microphones pick up too much noise so we use foley.

Foley is the reproduction of everyday sounds to use in filmmaking. 

The reproduced sounds could be anything and it helps to create a sense in the scene and without the sound effects the film would be unnaturally quite.

Foley Sounds in Animation

• gunshots
• clicking fingers
• door opening 
• shouting 
• door shutting
• box dropping 
• blinds opening 
• phone ringing 
• picking up the phone 
•  footsteps up the stairs
• dog barking 
• box opening 
• dropping the dog 
• kicking
• dog walking around 
• dog banging into the wall
• rubbing his nose 
• ball hitting the box 
• dog kicking the ball
• the box falling 
• the dog yelping 
• the persons expressional noises
• dog running 
•  dog biting the ball
• dogs expressional noises
• persons walking 
• crutches walking on the floor

Is there music in the scene?

Yes

How does the music make you feel?

Tense when the music gets louder because it creates alot of tension.

When do u hear the music or the sounds change?

When more action happens the music gets louder and more dramatic but if its quite tense moments the the music quietens.

What is happening in the scene when the music changes?

There is alot of action when the music is loud and not so much when its quiet.

If you aren't looking at the screen when the music changes can u tell what is happening?

Yes because the music somewhat tells the story by the mood and atmosphere of the music.

Are there any moments of silence?

Yes there is when the woman is laying and after she speaks the music gets super loud and dramatic.

Do any of the characters speak? What do they sound like?

The characters do speak and some characters have quite firm voices.

Can you hear any sound effects?

Yes , explosions gunshots etc.

Do you think any sounds were made louder than they actually are?

Yes some are to emphasise the impact of the sound.

Alien Story Sounds

No music when they are operating on the alien.

Emphasise the sounds of them operating on him like syringes and equipment like that.

When the alien wakes up have quite a dramatic sound effect and then quite background music with emphasis as you hear all the metal equipment and metal hit the floor causing like a ringing echo on the floor along with shouting and screaming as the scientists run in fear.

Monday 7th February 2022

Learning Objective:

to experiment with foley and sound effects

Settings and props -  You can tell they are in a very rich/ high class location with the food and the golden chairs along with the wallpaper and paintings.

Costume, Hair, Makeup, Facial Expressions and Body language - The costumes of the 2 guards makes the watcher assume they have some authority as well as them standing straight up with good posture and a spear like weapon in their hand. The hair and makeup of the guy in the middle makes it look like he is a pirate and looks quite dirty and ragged. The facial expressions and body language makes it look like they aren't friends and he is somewhat captured.

Lighting and Colour - The lighting really emphasises the golden chair making it brighter than the rest of the set. And the colour makes it seem like quite olden day like it is less modern times.

Positioning of characters and objects within the frame -  the food is quite obvious as it is taking up almost half of the shot suggesting where he is, is a rich place. The way the soldiers are standing in-between the pirate makes it seem like he is captured and cant move much sort of trapped. And the way the soldiers are positioned makes it seem like they were ordered to keep him there like they are waiting for someone.

Creative Task

The room was silent. Only the sound of the uvi beeping and the rustling of the hazmat suits as the 2 scientists gently pull apart the alien ever so slowly. The room was clean, sweaky clean, white everywhere other than the small bits of blue blood coming from the aliens stomach. Test tubes covered the counters and other scientific equipment. The scientists where covering head to toe in this silver double layered silver hazmat suit to avoid any of their bacteria getting on the alien or vice versa. Goggles around their eyes and thier hair in a hair net. They were cautious. Very cautious. They didnt want to disqualify the experiment and ruin their research so their movements were stiff, and slow. Their expressions blank filled with utter concentration. The lighting was bright, almost too bright, It was beaming down on the specimen as they experimented on it. All the equipment was perfectly placed and labeled, very organised and set out with perfection. Nothing could of gone wrong.. until the eye of the alien opened....

Clip 1 

voiceover and breathing

music put over the clip

crunching of getting of the sofa

teeth cleaning

tap running

toilet flushing

dialog

draw opening

spreading the  jam

ding of the teacup

shutting the door

putting the milk away

 We did the tap running clip very well as it sounded quite similar and could also probably get away with the toilet flushing sound. The background noise was annoying as we didn't get that clear enough sound quality with the clips due to the talking in the background.

My Disaster Movie Ideas

My main character is a male. He is a school scientist who is incredibly smart and experiment with human blood cells. 

The disaster is an epidemic, more in detail its a somewhat zombie infection/virus. The disaster was accidentally created by the main character who was experimenting on one of the students in the school basement and she managed to escape. He caught her and injected her with a syrim he hadn't tested yet, this created the virus. He locked her up in the basement but one day another student heard noises coming from the basement and he got to close to the girl and with one quick bite... the infection was out.

There is a group of other people of which one of them is the scientists daughter and her best friend.

As soon as the outbreak started loads of people where dying, the corridors and classes crowded with zombies that could attack any second.

The group of people are running away from zombie and fighting for their lives until they find a safe classroom with zombies swarming outside.

The scientist finds out  that his daughter who was trapped in a room with her friends was bitten, he didnt want her to become one of those monsters so he got the motivation and courage together to create the vaccine

The scientist locks himself in the lab and tries to finish his almost completed vaccine that he was working on before, he finally completed it and gives it to the military and his daughter..

The scientist find the vaccine for the zombie outbreak in his case and they spread it across the city killing all the undead.

The group is saved by the military even after feeling great loss they made it out alive.

The setting is an american high school with an upstairs and downstairs, basement and attic.

The estate the high school is in is very posh and the school is a very rich school to attend with only the smartest teachers and students accepted in.

My Disaster Movie

The disaster is a zombie apocalypse, the virus gets out because of a school science teacher doing experiments on students in the school. The lead characters is the science teacher and his daughter with her friends and its set in there school.

My film is set in 2021 in an american highschool.

The overall mood is all based on fear and how everyone will react to a life threatening disaster like this. Doing so it will show peoples true colours and their morals. There costumes will be normal school uniform but its ripped and dirty maybe covered in blood to represent how much they have gone through.

There will be special makeup for all the zombies which will require a bunch of extras and the camera angles will be maybe some drone shots to show the impact of the virus and maybe some mid shots or close ups for when 2 people are having a conversation.

The message behind my film is to show in our modern time how people will react to something like this and the risks people will take to save themselves or others. 

Name for the movie -  Learning Is Deadly

Monday 28th March 2022

Learning Objective:

To effectively develop and idea for a disaster movie

6 conventions

• a hero
• a life threatening disaster
• family member saved 
• worldwide impact
• populated area - like a city
• the hero somehow saves the day

Todorov

Equilibrium

The equilibrium is just normal day to day school, you have some bullying our protagonist struggling and stressing about failing a class. Everything isn't good as you do have cyberbullying and other problems but it is normal school life. No one is aware of what the scientist is doing.

Disruption

One of the students go into the scientists lab after hearing suspicious sounds and get attacked by the student they run out in a fright and don't tell anyone in fear of getting punished. In their next class they are sweating and are very un comfortable, they ask to go out and get some air but as they stand up they collapse on the ground. People surround them as they lay still but then they start shaking and distorting you hear bones crack as they suddenly jump up and attack a fellow classmate, thus began the outbreak.

Recognition of disruption

People hide in classrooms, border the doors and try to stay safe. The scientist try to get back to his lab to try and discover the cure while trying to avoid any zombies in his path.

Attempt to solve

The scientist goes off to find the cure/ create it.

New equilibrium

The cure gets passed around the city but some zombies still lurk in dark tunnels waiting for the pray...

Propp

The hero and villain 

The hero and villain is the scientist and he solves the virus but he also creates the disaster.

The Donor

The donor is the scientists daughter as her being effected by the virus gives the scientist the courage to cure the virus.

The Helper

The Helper is the scientists friend who sacrificed himself to help him find the cure

The Princess

The Princess is the cure because it is the item of interest to stop the virus

The Dispatcher

The Dispatcher is the scientists daughter , also the donor because she sends him to go create the cure.

The Princesses Father

The zombie that was originally tied up in his lab is protecting the stuff to make the cure by attacking any people who go in.

The False Hero

The False Hero could be the military as seen to most people they saved the day as they got given the cure to save everyone.

Visual Story Telling 

Im Hungry -  

Ive lost me cat-

Im tired - 

The Day before exams - in the morning

[TIREDLY] Alyssa groans as she carries her books along the hallway. She hears rattling as she walks by a door, she takes a few steps back.

Alyssa- Hello?

No reply.

Alyssa- Is anyone there?

Alyssa- Aww a cat

[Carefully with Haste] She picks up the cat with no hesitation ready to take it out then room when she heard a long and clanky bang behind a dark curtain.

Alyssa- Hello? I know someones in there.

[She rapidly opens the curtain with a swift hand swoop.] There lies a student tied to metal pipes [squirming and squealing in pain trying to break free]

???- HIUHDEOHFDOHFDHEIEHAHHHHEHEEH

[Scared and Confused]  She goes to look at them but [ Frantically] they rapidly leap on her biting her stomach ferociously. [Confused but Determined] She kicks the thing off her before running away leaving the cat as its next meal.

30 MINUTES LATER.

[Nervously] Alyssa sits there in class , [she is burnt up and sweating.]

Ester - Are you okay? You don't look so good..

I was surprised that that one film idea has to need to be authorised so much and passed around to make sure the film is perfect before it is released in the cinema.

The process is very slow to get that permission to get the film released not even including hiring actors and all those other people. The amount of determination to get the film released is alot and you have to have a massive passion for your idea to spend that much production value and time into that single idea.

What is Pre - Production?

Monday 23rd May 2022

Learning Objective:

To develop an effective film marketing strategy 

Deadpool 2 

The marketing budget for Deadpool was smaller than usual, like the production budget, so Reynolds worked closely with Fox domestic marketing chief Marc Weinstock to use the internet to their advantage and come up with cheaper, "Deadpool-based" ways to market the film.

----- trailer and interviews

posters ----

You normally see film posters on the side of buses, in cinemas and on social media.

By distributing them in these locations you would hope for ore recognition and more people interested in watching it.

Information in the posters are the characters and the name of the film as well as the date of release.

The fonts are all quite slim and long normally quite or silver.

The colour palette is very dull quite a lot of grey and white.

The images are mostly showing desolate worlds.

The Taglines are very dramatic and intense.

The titles are very blocky and slim with wide spaces.

This poster suggests that its a disaster movie because of the background image, its isolated and damaged showing that some significant effects happened recently.

It contains a very grey and dull colour palette which suggests there is no life and the font text and colouring of the font connotes that it is a type of mechanical tone to the movie.

The tagline in the poster gives the atmosphere of regret and ignorance as well as the bottom text which gives an area of mystery. 

The blocky, slim text shows that its a sort of serious and like metal sort of age like a destructive streak

I used the conventions by adding the main background image and the title

I would say i used the poster conventions well by adding the title to the top of the screen.

I am pleased with the background image i found.

I would improve the title if i had more time.

 I would like to learn how to improve texts to make them look better.
