Monday 17th January 2022 Sound in film
LO: To explore the use of sound in films
1) A horror movie/ Screams, creaks, scary music.
2) An action movie/ crashes, gunshots, fighting sounds, wheel spinning
3) A thriller/ suspence music, slams.
4) A comedy film/ laughter, upbeat music.
5) A science fiction film/ alien sounds, explosions, beeping
Diegetic
sounds you would hear if you were in the scene eg someone speaking , footsteps , music on a radio.
Non-diegetic
sounds that only the audience can hear eg narration, internal dialogue, music
The Matrix
diegetic-dialogue-screaming-gunshots-punches-explosions-helicopter
non diegetic-music-drums
Foley
Foley is when the movie is focusing on the dialogue so the sounds are really the focus so the foley people make the sounds like footsteps they will try different shoes on till they get the right one that matches with the person and if they are walking on dirt they might walk on some leaves
Foley
mum talking, shooting,panting,sliding,breathing,door opening,blinds opening,clinking,
Matrix
1) There is music in the trailer
2) The music makes me feel quite on edge
3) When something eventval happened the beat drops or got higher pitch
4) Something dramatic
5) no
6) sometimes in the music but the dialogue is still happening
7) they sound like normal when they speak
8) they would speak when the music has tension or silent
9) yes i can hear explosions and gunshots and more
10) yes i think they have some sounds louder to make it more dramatic and if they are focusing on a certain object
Sounds
i would make crashing noises for the alien knocking over stuff and then i would do a high pitch sound for the alien talking and when he vanishes i would use a sound that sounds like wind going threw the air swirling around.
Mise-en-scene
LO: To explore the use of Mise-en-scene in films
Monday 31st January 2022
Mise-en-scene is made up of five areas
1) Settings and props
2) costume hair and makeup
3) Facial expressions and body language
4) lighting and colour
5) position of characters/objects within the frame (blocking)
Setting and props
settings and locations play an important part in film-making and are not just backgrounds
sets are either built from scratch or a great deal of time is spent to find a setting which already exists
settings can manipulate an audience by building certain expectations and then taking a different turn
1) A science fiction film
i would think the setting would be somewhere not in this world maybe like the moon or a different planet maybe a lab. I would expect to see a spaceship as prop and new technology
2) A romantic comedy
I would expect the setting to be placed in a small town or busy city. The props i would think some flowers and chocolates maybe something funny for a joke could be a ring as a prop
3) A horror film
It would probably be set somewhere scary and old like a old town or house. The props could be like blood and fake ghosts and old creaky house, knife and old things
1) The fist one suggest that it might be based in a different timeline cause the clothes look quite old fashioned and it kinda looks like he's going on a adventure because he has a bag and a hat
2) The second one suggest that they are quite dramatic because there top says that and there wearing a lot of pink so she's over the top and looks preppy and that this is based early 2000s because that was the style back then and that she probably american
3) The third one suggests that they are sad because of his facial expressions and that he might be poor because of his cloths and his hair looking scruffy so that suggest he doesn't take much care in his appearance
1) From the first one i get scary vibes because they are all staring at echoer and i feel like something bad is about to happen also because the one in the middle looks more scary and looks like she's annoyed so she might do something
2) From this second one its giving dance battle vibes because it looks like he's got a team of people and there are staring at other people and there facial expressions look quite competitive so that also might suggest that or that there having a actual fight
There are two main types of lighting
Low key lighting
Produces sharp contrasts of light and dark areas
deep distinct shadows
High key lighting
lighting is natural and realistic to our eyes
produces brightly lit sets or a sunny day
The lighting and colour suggest that this is quite a eerie scene thats suspenseful because there's a glimpse of light but its kind of a green colour
1) In the first picture they are both crossed arms what means they are angry and they are far a part so that means that they don't want to be close together because they have maybe had a fight or they want to get divorced
2) In this one they look like they are friends and they are working together in a job because they have the same suits and they both look like agents because they have guns and suits and they look rich
Monday 14th February 2022
LO: To experiment with foley and sound effects
1) The settings and props tell us that this isn't set now but in the past because there are candles instead of light bulbs and they are wearing old outfits and holding muskets. It also makes us think this is quite a rich set because there are golden chaires and nice food and walls.
2) The costume, hair and make up suggests that the one is a pirate by looking at his hat and the people next to him are some sort of rich guards because they are wearing gold outfits that look like velvet.
3) The facial expressions and body suggests that the people at the side are angry and very serious by the way they are standing and by their facial expressions and not smiling then the one in the middle looks kinda worried by how his facial expression is.
4) The lighting and colour suggests that its in quite a bright room so it's in the day and they wanted this scene to be captured by the camera quite brightly.
5) The positioning of the characters/objects within the frame makes me think that they all need to be seen and they positioned it to look like they are looking at something and they are in front of somebody.
Get Creative
