film idea

There is a women walking down the street and there is a man standing hidden in the corner watching her with out letting her see, and he is wearing a hoodie and she is just doing her own thing.
She then gets home after shopping and puts all the bags down. she then hears a loud sudden noise coing from down in the basement and decides to go and see what it is. once she gets down there she stands there really still trying to see where the noise came from and then all of a sudden the man that was stalking her on the street jumps out of no where and tries to kill her, the lighting that will be used for this scene is underexposed to make the scene more scary and effective. We will use high angle shots on the women walking down the stairs and when she's standing in te basement to make her look weak. And then when the man jumps out of the basement we will use a low angle shot to make him look powerful and that will make the audience scared. the film is going to all be in black in white for a more scary effect.
Props:
dark hoodie

film.

The genre that I would like to do would be horror because it would be interesting to make and is a genre that i know lots about. My idea is that it would be set in a dark isolated room and there would be a killer, and the victim would be trying to hide from the victim but eventually gets found, but then just before she;s about to be killed she gets rescued by an unknown person who is wearing a hoodie so you cant see there face. We would use low angle shots on the killer when he is trying to find the victim to make him look powerful and scary so that the audience is frightened. And then we would use a high angle shot on the victim so that the victim looks small and scared and weak to make the audience think she is going to die, and this will also make it unsuspected when the victim gets saves because no one will be expecting it.
The character smokes and drinks.
the music from the second one makes the characters seem like happy people, but on the first one the music was more cheerful and makes the characters seem like happy people.
 you can tell that they travel from all pictures of them travelling and the maps they have hanging up.
 They seem like laid back people.
They look important from some of the pictures that look like they are at work.
They might be from Australia because there was a map with Australia high lighted and some photos of them that look like they may be in Australia.
They may be fisherman because there was photos of them on boats.
they look like they are from lagos city because as the introduction ends it zooms up on lagos city and then begins,

Film Language.

1. Lighting, setting, characters, costume.
2. A shot is an uninterrupted piece of footage.
3. Edit is to either cut bits of a shot it can also include faids or dissolves.
4. if the lighting were bright it would be used in a scene where the character would be feeling happy, if the lighting were dull and depressing it would usually show a upset or depressed character, and then if it were dark lighting it could be romantic like standing out in the rain at night.
5. Back light is what they use to make a person look like a silhouette just so that you can see the outside of there bodies.
6. the term framing means how much of the picture is being shown/allowed to see.
7. because it helps you lead a viewer to the focal point.
8. They may choose to overexpose a particular shot to make a scene hot or to make them feel disoriented, for when someone wakes up or to make someone look heavenly.
9. An effect that could be achieved by underexposing a particular shot could be used in a scary scene to make the audience feel lost or unsafe or to hide something.
10. The difference between shooting a low and high angle is shooting a character from a low angle would make the character look strong and powerful, whereas shooting a character from a high angle would make the character look week and scared and not powerful.
11.  A canted shot is when the camera is on an angle.

my add

editing

1.Slow to build tension and fear in the audience.
2. Slow editing as the person confessing would just have one long scene focussed on them talking and then on the other persons reaction after the confession.
3. Fast editing because it would be flicking from one group of people to another as you would need to be able to see both teams dancing to know whats happening.
4. fast editing because the car would be driving really fast and it would be going from one thing to another.

image analysis

image 1:
This is a close up shot, it has a leading line starting from the bottom keft hand corner leading up to the top right hand side.
There are third lines starting from the left hand side of the page and going all the way across to the right hand side.
This image looks like a scene in a movie where someone has gotten them selves in trouble with the police or someone important.
There are focal point where his name is written.
image 2:
The thing my eye went straight to was the long desk going along the photo. the focal point is the lines at the back of the picture.
It looked like they were working in a factory im not sure what they were making but maybe one of the main characters worked there for a job.
Image 3:
the leading line is the line going straight up the middle of the shot, one of the things i was drawn to was the writing in the bottom right hand corner.
Image 3 looks like an evil business man who is doing something he shouldnt be or bullying people into getting his own way.

Alice in wonderland


Alice
 Alice is a very confused character and doesn’t really know what’s happening around her and she just goes along with everything partly because she thinks she’s dreaming so she doesn’t really take anything very seriously.

What lead you to feel this way about the character?
The color of her dress had something to do with as its blue and blue is a kind of clam color and Alice is calm most of the time.
The expressions that Alice uses in her face is generally confused or scared but sometimes she’s happy.
