Filming Part 2

-


The next scenes we filmed were the interrogation scenes. My interrogation was the first scene filmed this week and we struggled again with the lighting because we filmed in a dark classroom. Again, we had one of our group members use a phone flashlight to give some light within the frame. Lighting was extremely difficult because we needed enough light for our actors to be seen, but we also wanted as little as possible so the shot would look more like an interrogation room.



After many lighting problems, we decided to switch our location to an isolated room attached to our classroom. This location gave the perfect amount of light we wanted and made the surroundings look as much like an interrogation room as possible.

Carrie was the first old movie that stuck with me for having the strangest theme, funniest acting, and the oddest production.

This is the iconic "Plug it up" scene which I would consider a choker shot.   In the article ' Different Camera Angles Create Different Emotions " it states that shots like this one help the viewer feel whatever the characters are feeling. This particular shot allows the viewer to enter the girls' emotions and...

Inspiration for our Genre

-
My group decided on action/ adventure for the genre of the film opening that we will soon produce. In this blog post, I will be discussing the general rundown of what our genre is, why our group agreed on this film genre and my personal opinion about our topic. I will also be including examples of movies that helped come to this choice. Action/Adventure films are exciting stories, with new experiences or exotic locales. They are designed to provide an action-filled, energetic experience for the film viewer to live vicariously through the travels, conquests, explorations, creation of empires, struggles and situations that confront the main characters, actual historical figures or protagonists. The two genres separately are very different and each attracts the viewers to watch more. This had a huge impact on the reason we picked these genres. We first wanted to pick just one of these genres, but after tons of picking and prying, we decided that our best option was to combine them both as...
