Evaluation of My Preliminary Task

Hi Everyone. I've recently uploaded a new blog which was my preliminary task. It lasted less than a minute but that's the point of the preliminary task not to be long. After that I'll start working on my main task which is going to be much longer but before that I first need to evaluate my preliminary task to find out what was good and what needs an improvement. I'm sure that some of the objects are not in focus when the camera records so I will use the magnification button on the Nikon DSLR camera. I'll also solve the problem with the off camera sounds sounds which are not appropriate in a film. I'll either move to another location or wait for the moment when no side sounds or use the boom microphone so the sounds in camera will be more heard. The pointless objects in a shot which do not work on a story should also not be shown in a shot. I'll shoot more angles so it will be easier to edit and understand which angle is more appropriate. And of course I need to develop a script and write it on a storyboard to understand what should happen in each scene.

What I liked in my task is that the story does work so we understand who the main character is. I also liked the music in a film how it started as peaceful jazz and ended like something from "Inception". The acting was pretty good but I think the actors should have had more expression.

In conclusion I can say that I'm pleased with my job but I can't deny that there are some moment which need an improvement. Well, hope that for my main task this won't be a problem

Critical Question 2

How does my product engage with my audience? Well firstly it’s important to find out what my audience is. They are people who are very likely to enjoy the thriller genre films and their age somewhere between the teen age and early 30’s, possibly middle class people because they can understand the pain which main character feels. The main character is fully in debt and the stranger who he meets in a café gives him an offer to murder someone so he’ll be paid enough money to return the debt. Many people who will watch this will ask very deep questions like ‘’What would I do on his place if I had debts too?’’. And also there are thriller fans of the same age as above described people. These are the category which use the film watching to feel the tension, the people found out the Fincher-style thrillers which give the cliffhangers and the viewers wonder what will happen next. These people don’t watch these films because they reflect their personal life problems but are made in the genre th...

How to Make a Good Villain

Villains are important characters in plot because they drive the conflict and they capture the viewer's attention. A villain is the opposite of a hero. A villain is the antagonist of your story whose motivations and actions oppose the protagonist and drive the plot of your story. A villain is the opposite of a hero. In contrast to the hero, a villain is usually compelled by a desire to commit acts of cruelty and immorality. Every great hero needs a great villain. Villains are the antagonistic force of your story that challenges your hero and drives the action. Most great villains share a common set of characteristics: 1) Strong connection to the hero . The best villains are inextricably connected to the hero, and aid in the hero’s character development through their inherent opposition to them. For example, in the Harry Potter series, Lord Voldemort murdered Harry Potter’s parents when he was a child, leaving behind a magical scar on Harry’s forehead ...

Cinemascope

Cinemascope is an anamorphic process that compresses an image during filming and uncompresses it when projected. The process involves squeezing a wide image onto 35mm film so that it fits the physical celluloid's square frame. With the help of anamorphic projection lenses, this image is then unsqueezed, allowing for the full width of the image to be displayed. In the early days of cinema, French inventor Henri Chretien created and patented an anamorphic lens that could be used for motion pictures. However, back in the 1920's and 1930's, no one was really interested. That all changed in early 1950's, when motive studios were losing their audience to the rise of television. It was convenient, could be enjoyed at home and provided the same entertainment value as movies. However, in 1952, ''This Is Cinerama'', which displayed a widescreen image with three cameras and three projectors was becoming a smash hit across the country, albeit in limited theatres. ...
