Reasearch 2 - Analysis of Short Films

http://www.bbc.co.uk/filmnetwork/films/p004rgd1

Round by Kirk Hendry

This film uses hands to illustrate an entire world. It uses a hand as a seed and through the hand a world is created with animals, trees etc. This has a very child friendly feel and corresponds to the type of audience in which we would like to target our film at. I feel the appropriate use of music in certain area of the film get the audience excited and even though it is quite simplistic it is still interesting. The simplistic feel created by the hands is lost as we watch as this world of hands becomes real to us over the duration of the film; I feel this sort of feel could be used in our production also.

Genie in My Nostrils



This is an low quality, amataur, comedy spoof which illustrates simply some of the effects in which we can reproduce with regards to our genie character. It Used a fade to white and an electrical sound effect to show that the genie was appearing which we could use this but i think it would be more effective if we made it slower and found 'mystical' music to match the action which could make it more dramatic.

Reasearch 1 - Cinematography



This is a piece of reasearch we did into cinematography and a famous ciematogropher Christopher Doyle. It showed us that it was not only camera, sound, and mis en scene that we had at our disposal but we also had a new tool to make our film look better and correctly capture the feel and mood of our film.

Cinematographer

The person whose job it is to set up both camera and lighting for each shot in a moving image text. The cinematographer has perhaps paramount influence over the look or tone of a shot or scene, and is often held in as high esteem as the director. Cinematography is therefore the art of positioning a camera and lighting a scene.

What Is Cinematography For? Christopher Doyle

“Tries to translate ideas into images”
“Work out how to express a story within a space”

Welcome

Welcome to my blog in which will log all the work which i have completed in A2 Media. Last year i made a AS short title sequence called daisy, which can be viewed on my blog along with my A2 short film genie. We did various tasks and reasearch to find inspiration, we also did a preliminary tasks workshops and masterclassess to learn how to use all the equipment available. For each tasks i worked in a group and in for my A2 project we decided to base our film around the colour gold. We had fun making the film and feel that we created as good a product as we could have given the time and utilities given
