Too much drama!

  The next genre that our group settled on is Drama, there's a lot of drama shows that we all have watched and enjoyed so the genre seems like it could fit. When thinking about shots that would be needed if we chose to do a drama for our topic of interest. We expected that we would need Two Shots, Wide shot, Long shots when looking at the person and the locations that they are in. Of course we knew that the shots and angles that are taken show the tension in the scenes so it is very necessary. We'll have a few images of people on the ground or in their beds where we'll only be shooting their faces or even their eyes through extreme close-ups. Their faces will be the only thing in the frame, but from above. The object/character is taken from above or at a higher angle in a birds eye or high angle shot. These are commonly employed to gain perspective or to convey that a character or object has less significance than another. But to go into more detail on what drama is in movies. Drama is characterized by stories with high stakes and numerous conflicts. They're plot-driven, and every character and scene must advance the plot. Dramas have a well-defined plot structure, depicting real-life settings or severe situations with emotionally charged characters.

To show this I would like to introduce the movie Joker. The 2019 movie that was the highlight of its year and the years after it was released. The message carries such a hard message that hits every when it's knowened. What do you think the message of the Joker movie is? The Joker is a cruel film that leaves fans watching Arthur Fleck be beaten down by the streets, the system, and his own mental health difficulties.

Joker was shot on Alexa 65, Alexa LF, and Alexa Mini cameras in ARRIRAW 4k at 1.85:1 aspect ratio, according to our study. Although the resolution differed from camera to camera, they were all shot open gate and the 39672160 part extracted. After that, the clip was edited in Avid MC v8.

What a thriller!

 

Hello! Seeing as though we need a certain type of genre for our final task, my group an I had a dissuasion about it. We have different ideas in mind. One of those being a thriller. One of the main points of a thriller is to have the viewer at the edge of their seat. It needs to be exciting and or suspenseful. Some of the common camera angles that are present in a thriller are high angles, low angles, canted angles, wide shots, close ups and extreme close up among others. All of these angles can be used to create the suspense that is usually present in most thrillers. Some Mis-en scenes that are used in a thriller is for one the use of lighting. To make the viewer feel suspense the lighting would be more darker and not brightly lit. Also there will mostly be a setting that would make the viewer nervous. The it comes to the editing of a thriller is is sure to be jumps cuts, elliptical editing, shot reverse shot, and parallel editing. These are used to make the viewer feel like they are within the film. They cause the viewer to be alert thinking something will happen. And keeping them on their toes. Thrillers also tend to add the sounds of the weather such as rain and wind so the viewer can feel the setting. They also add heavy breathing of the characters so the viewers can feel the tension that they feel. Some popular examples of thinners are Scream, The silence of the lambs, Get out, and Black swan. These are all really popular thrillers that use a lot of the things that were mentioned. The elements of thrillers that I like and would uses are the sound devices if possible and the lighting and angles to bring our finial task feel alive and interesting as well as suspenseful. The only thing I would say away from within the thriller is a scary or suspenseful location seeing as though it may not be possible for me and my group to do.

What should we do?

We recognize that our original idea may not work for a number of reasons. Which is why we decided to come up with a back up plan. The back up plan will give off more of an isolated atmosphere. The idea is to film someone wearing ragged clothes and disheveled hair walking alone in an uncomfortable environment. We will have title captions appear on the environment in which they are running. We will use silence to help with the feelings. Then when the person steps on something breakable we will make it loud. At the end it will show the person chasing the other person then the name of the director will show. The person who is chasing after the other will wear a ski mask. Along with the reveal of the chaser we will have the silence break and be replaced with the runner breathing heavily. Our second pitch is to have there being a person running from people that are trying to hurt/harm them. It would be taking place on a sidewalk. The person would look tired to show that they have been running for a while. It would be shot in a way that would make the viewer feel like “woah, what is happening”. That feeling would make them get more interested and want to find out what happens next. I was also thinking that after the person runs we see them hide behind a corner. After hiding behind the corner we would see a title and the opening credits would start. I decided that this would be a good pitch to use because it is an interesting concept. It is something that grabs your focus and makes you want to know more. 

Finding a group

      We are starting our Final task assignment which requires a group. And again I really enjoyed working with Rose and Luka on our last project. So I felt like working with them again is the best thing to do. They are all hard working and dedicated to doing a great job. We all got along and there weren't any arguments or disagreements or anything like that, and we did well on the Music video. We are friends and we all like each other and work well together. We text each other the day an assignment was due and make sure that everyone completed did it. We split the work between each other to make sure every one was doing their part. We worked well together on our last project and I am sure we can do it again. We already had some ideas for the genre that we wanted to do. There were talks about doing horror a while back. I am not against the idea, however I think we should think about it more. I feel that we should pick a genre after we have researched and talked about our options. I feel that we should keep our minds open, and do the genre that would best work for us. Also during our final task I feel like everyone should have their own thing to do. Seeing as though this assignment has so much more for us to do. We should all have an efficient way of splitting the work. We have to make sure that one person isn't doing more work than the others. I want to make a full schedule for everyone to know what they need to do and when. Since that would be the most effective way to get this done.

Hi everyone

 Greetings once again! I'm Vanessa, and today we are beginning to finish our final task. That task is making an Opening scene of a film. It appears to be really like our last assignment, yet with more parts. I'm eager to do this task, I feel like it will be fascinating. We can pick any genre that is suitable obviously. This task can be an extraordinary method for communicating your self and your inventiveness. It isn't something you ought to be sluggish about. You should make an honest effort and make it fun and intriguing or discouraging assuming that you need. That is the reason I am energized for this task since you can in a real sense pick anything you need. You might actually reproduce a subject from your cherished program or a game that you like. I in all actuality do have a few thoughts for what I need to do. I sort of need to rotate the video around the picked tune. Chiming in certain scenes, while acting it out in others. I also  need there to be numerous settings that connect with the video. We can chose any thing we want to do. I need the final task to be astounding, I am going to be a great director for the task. I'm certain the editing I accomplish for the opening sequence will be preferable over the one for the last assignment our class had. However, i totally can hardly wait to have a more strong thought. All I know is I need to make a video where individuals say wow when they watch it. I need to make it something so astonishing that everybody loves it.

Creative reflection

   Yay! so me and my group have fully finished since yesterday. How amazing is that, another project done right. I had fun with this one since I got to go out and film this time. We all worked hard and did our best. I feel like the music video is great since we made it ourselves. I am so proud of what we have accomplished. It was really fun and I can't wait to do it again. Me and my group work well together, this wouldn't have been possible without our team work. And our dedication. Now let us see the video!
