We can combat these problems by using a desk to do the aerial shot. We take a picture of Dom (the woman you assumed he was) with a rope hung round his neck, to make him look hung we will sello tape the rope to the ceiling or something to make the rope look tight, and then take a picture of him looking dead.<br />We were also asked how the eerie music will sound, we decided that it will sound similar to the exorcist theme, using a piano tune.<br />We were asked to write more detail about the opening credits. We wanted to have it appearing in a similar way to charmed.<br />We were also told that we are missing a title, so we have edited our description to show a title have finally thought of, we have named it 'Dark Dreamer'.<br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8rvYNy4NtyQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8rvYNy4NtyQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965744485250639495.post-24717165163026020142010-02-05T03:33:00.000-08:002010-02-05T04:13:58.222-08:00Why Thrillers Thrive<span style="font-size:85%;"> On the article 'Why thrillers thrive' we find that we don't fully agree or disagree with what is being said, although good points are raised, some things that are said are a little off point for example "the horror film will die" which is a very unrealistic accusation. They seem to be biased on the side of the thriller film genre but by this are unfairly casting out horror which is a very popular and grasping genre alone and will for the rest of time will attract it's large audience to the cinema.<br /> I think this article is trying to put down the horror genre as part of promoting the thriller genre, by this we disagree with their method although some of the points they raise are very interesting for example "Our nature is such that we must have these shake-ups." Yes thriller delivers this but so does horror, in fact horror delivers a much stronger and intense thrill.<br /> I think the person who wrote this article has a serious grudge against horrors, in this they are trying to make their readers think it is a bad and sick thing to engage in which is indeed wrong.<br /> The article itself is interesting and true but they go a little off course when they bring in horror, as it delivers the safe thrill that they are trying to promote. We disagree with how they've belittled the horror genre, which is a bit of a letdown. <br /></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965744485250639495.post-7720987020520495412010-02-05T03:15:00.000-08:002010-02-09T02:21:17.232-08:00Finalised ideas for thriller<span style="font-weight: bold;">Title - </span><span>Dark Dreamer<br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><br />0.00-0.10 -</span> fades in from black to an establishing shot rotating around the detective and his desk.

The titles show the film is going to be a psychological thriller because the threat is at a mental level rather than psychical because the credits appear calm rather than psychical.<br />How ever the music contrasts that as it is quite menacing and gives the idea that things could change.<br />This is unusual because in thrillers the titles normally suggest the antagonists personality to be crazy and insane.<br /><br />The credits aren't scary or to crazy because Panic Room builds up the tension during the film and there isn't a sudden dilemma.<br />Our film will be dis similar because it starts of with a dilemma, the detective studying a killers reports and photos.<br />Our writing will appear threatening like a generic thriller title.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965744485250639495.post-46273895015294840622010-02-03T08:01:00.000-08:002010-02-05T03:31:02.566-08:00Analysing Credits "Six Feet Under"<object height="365" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x2nz9d"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/x2nz9d" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" height="365" width="480"></embed></object><br /><b><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2nz9d_six-feet-under-main-title-sequence_creation">Six Feet Under, Main Title Sequence</a></b><br /><i>Uploaded by <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/numerof">numerof</a>. - <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/gb/channel/creation">Discover more animation and arts videos.</a></i><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /> Judging this program from never seeing it automatically it strikes me as dark thriller because of all the dead images of people and camera shots of for example the person walking down the dark, long corridor but the music tells us something completely the opposite (contrapuntal); the music is very chirpy and happy yet the images to go with it are very dark and gloomy this gives us the impression that it could be a comedy, a black comedy at that.<br /> The credits seem to be flaking away which has a link to the theme of death and burial; they can look pretty in the sense that they are flaking away into the image and it looks like quite a different and quirky effect, only when you look closer do you see that perhaps it has a link to the themes of the program itself.<br /> This shows how important music is to a film or program, it sets the scene and can either be used to correspond with the images and add effect or disagree with the images and give us an idea of what the true genre of the film is meant to be.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/DozfGxSOh4c&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/DozfGxSOh4c&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object><br />Six Feet Under has a similar beat to Desperate Housewives, both openings have fun and bouncy music this is how I knew Six Feet Under was not a serious dark thriller. <br /><br /><br /></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965744485250639495.post-89035714823886627472010-02-03T07:33:00.000-08:002010-02-03T07:37:57.993-08:00Garageband screenshot<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQkTWCzjT2T1ORjNhPjvjtGoiAzcjVTto9JWK9qeKbMsXr4y2VP62yF8gI08suZoDN86c_NUl5ewkrnDKDHeMvAl56T0Ow2iCKzCLMQ5RvQ2yjSZ-gLS_6mStamzCvxPOA-FoAqTkiXII/s1600-h/Picture+13.png"><img style="cursor: pointer;

In Reservoir Dogs the killing is all done for a reason .i.e someone owes someone money or killing off the competition; whilst Reservoir Dogs is largely a crime thriller there are scenes in which it crosses over to the psychological genre i.e. the torture scene in which "Stuck in the middle with you is played" in the background.

The protagonist falls victim to his mental state, and becomes unconsciously aware that he is the antagonist.<br />The Main character when asleep goes into a mental state and becomes a psycho killer.<br />How ever whilst awake he is a top detective try to figure out these un-ordinary<br /><br />1) The Genre of our thriller film is psychological.<br />- This will meat the conventions:<br />The mystery is the psycho killer, who is unaware of his actions when awake. the Audience will be unaware the protagonist is the antagonist.<br />- The danger is at a mental level rather than physical, because its all happening in the protagonists unconscious mind.<br />- One solitary character in a mental conflict, main character is killer and innocent detective.<br />- At the end the Antagonist discovers hes the protagonist.<br />- Antagonist fascination with death is linked to his job, as a detective.<br />Also in his sleep hes got death on his mind.<br />- Dream and reality.<br /><br />2) Dark office - Because the detective is hard at work late at night trying to uncover the truth behind the killings, then falls asleep at desk.<br />Dark rooms - to use flash backs of killings after action.<br />Outside(Dark) - flash backs of killings after action.<br /><br />3)narrative<br />the opening starts off with the detective asleep on his desk surrounded by notes, establishing shot and panning over the documents<br />then the camera focuses in on a document near the detective this turns into a flashback, we create the flashback using a strobe light, dissolve and a whooshing sound effect.<br />in the flashbacks we will show the killer in low lighting standing over the body of his victim, and in other flashbacks, killing the victim. we will use over the shoulder shots to hide the identity of the killer and feel like your in his shoes and low shots on the corpse to show the killers strength.<br />we will continue panning and zooming into reports on the desk about 3 times and then at the end we will show the detective waking up in a sweat, looking disturbed.<br /><br />4)<br />Adam - Detective and Killer<br />Bronwen - Victim<br />Dom - Victim<br />Harry - Camera work, maybe another victim.<br /><br />5)Brand new film.<br />The opening is similar to identity but on the whole is different.<br />The theme we will use will be similar to the exorcists theme.<br /><br />6) Titles: Opening slowing streaming characters names etc. Font slightly decrypting like in charmed opening credits, slightly gothic font.<br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/8rvYNy4NtyQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/8rvYNy4NtyQ&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br />7) We'll probably be using a spooky, psycho, mysterious feel to the opening theme tune, like the exorcist.<br /><object height="344" width="425"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/NbAokOk6mMY&hl=en_US&fs=1&"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/NbAokOk6mMY&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344" width="425"></embed></object><br /><br />Shots - Establishing shot of his desk, panning across.<br />High shots over the detectives shoulder shot, to show how superior the killer is in the flash backs.<br />Close ups of reports and detectives notes.

We already know about the killer and how he kills but who is the man/woman hiding behind the mask and that is what we watch it for.<br /><br />It doesn't really show where they are, it only shows us where the girl getting killed lives which is crucial to the scene but not really to the story.<br /><br />We can tell the kind of narrative structure by how it's been set up. We can tell this psycho killer will kill others before he is figured out and caught by the protagonist, justice will be served in the end.<br /><br />The music isn't heavy metal to indicate a psycho killer (more horror style) its more mysterious and interesting which works really fantastically, the music makes this clip and tells us exactly where it's heading.<br /><br />We are shown the killers persoanlity; ruthless, carefree but we don't know yet if his kills are random or if they're reasons behind his choice?<br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span><br /><br /><br /></span></span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span></span><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"><span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"></span></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4965744485250639495.post-10635304566008329102010-01-19T01:47:00.000-08:002010-01-19T01:58:04.441-08:00Acheiving a Top Grade<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;">Marking Criteria - Level 4 - 48/60 </span><br /><br /></span><span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >Demonstrate excellence in the following: </span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size:85%;"><br /></span></span></span><ul><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Holding a steady shot</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Framing a shot appropriately<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Using a variety of shot distances<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Shooting material appropriate to the task<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Editing so meaning is appropriate to the viewer<br /></span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Using varied shot transitions and effects</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Using sound with images </span></li></ul><span style="font-size:85%;"><span style="font-style: italic;">Needs...</span><br /></span><ul><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Introducing the main characters</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Revealing the themes of the film</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Introducing the setting/location of the film</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">We should have an idea of the narrative structure</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Music should indicate the genre of the film</span></li><li><span style="font-size:85%;">Indication of the character personality.<br /></span></li></ul>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
