  4. Cinematography
     cinematography
  • Camera Movement
  • Shot size
  • Camera angle

Camera movements :
  • Track(in, back, left, right, with, and behind)
  • Tilt(up and down )
  • Dolly(left and right ) (dolly out zoom in\dolly in zoom out)
  • Zoom( in and out )
  • Crane(up and down )
  • Pan ( left and right ) and whip pan faster movement
  • static(still)
  • Camera racking (pull focus)
  • Handheld

Camera angle:
Image result for depth of field
  • canted/oblique/dutch angle (tilted at an angle)

depth of field:
shallow- background blurred focus on one person/object
deep-everything in focus


lighting:

basic 3 point lighting setup 
Image result for 3 lighting setup
  • key light brightest 45 degrees to the camera
  • fill light 50%-75% of the key light
  • backlight low intensity must use diffusion
  • chiaroscuro(strong contrast between light and dark)

Editing

The Kuleshov Effect- is a film editing effect invented by Soviet filmmaker, Lev Kuleshov. It is a mental phenomenon where the audience derives more meaning from the interaction of two back-to-back shots than from one shot in isolation. In the 1910s, movies were emerging as an art form.

rhythm and pace: the way a film fits together.

use of montage: 
a technique in film editing in which a series of short shots are edited into a sequence to condense space, time, and information.

graphic matching
the creation of strong visual similarity between shots, encouraging audiences to make connections between them.


performance:

melodrama-exaggerated
realism-daily everyday life in a naturalistic manner
comedic-humour
intertextual- a cluster of meanings and parts, often referencing 

the stars consist of three component parts:

real person 
reel person
the star's persona (independent of, but a combination of the other two parts)


stars image :
  • what industry puts out
  • what the media says 
  • what the star says or does
  • what we say 

stars are considered as a cultural value they reflect the time in which they work and their work becomes a sign reflected in society.

  1. Get into the habit of including images in your blog when taking notes - for example, find an image demonstrating depth of field - one deep, one shallow - and paste it next to the text. This will help you to revise later on. I find that embedding images helps to log a technique in my mind.

  2. Overall, these notes are a little short on detail - ensure you keep up-to-date with note-taking, and use images to support your writing.
    Also, can you post your mise-en-scene PowerPoint, please.
