So in order to address this part of my evaluation, me and my partner Rachel will be doing a piece to camera. <br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dxbzbFIwSNS7Wmc8TnvQcxu3tHLgM4JCUKvosC5Tt_QsbsoicnFJnEGLxp2DPYWpEumNQFuF3yHJVXaRNg7qg' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-69145895445492242082011-05-06T02:03:00.001-07:002011-05-11T05:10:44.304-07:00In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?For my main product, me and my group researched typical conventions from a short award-winning film "Wasp", which features below. The main conventions we learnt for our main product were:<br /><br />* Original storyline<br />* Stereotypical Characters<br />* a range of locations <br />* a range of shots<br /><br />We tried to put all these conventions to use in our main product, by trying to make the storyline as original as possible. We used storyboards to help us. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_ulo-qiaQJd6a_BSiSNWRrMSCNZ_V3nqJHixrbLX3ppyDWxxJf4LROtjCiq9De5ahcF8DuIbOFFgzm362VeKG2-4JkgYrW-tl_bskb4JV4muIeyu5G9zAOyHKb2sINYx9DBubu0fFxaza/s1600/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+001.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_ulo-qiaQJd6a_BSiSNWRrMSCNZ_V3nqJHixrbLX3ppyDWxxJf4LROtjCiq9De5ahcF8DuIbOFFgzm362VeKG2-4JkgYrW-tl_bskb4JV4muIeyu5G9zAOyHKb2sINYx9DBubu0fFxaza/s320/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+001.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605429293371876754" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbQLLArDJzBe5wxFHiKv2KE_RvaiLjztxZC96Qd06aNw5e1BaNPM0cSdCc1DufafSjXjHhy9z-TljDAI5chEw6Ms9HugBXhIosn6N22eD9OsQ1EyGkbHGc-xbFdS8SafjweOzLSQHyJ9Qj/s1600/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+002.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgbQLLArDJzBe5wxFHiKv2KE_RvaiLjztxZC96Qd06aNw5e1BaNPM0cSdCc1DufafSjXjHhy9z-TljDAI5chEw6Ms9HugBXhIosn6N22eD9OsQ1EyGkbHGc-xbFdS8SafjweOzLSQHyJ9Qj/s320/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+002.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605429496636838066" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNI_eVnOdrcBEXgcE-iYPtPK0NQAWAigvZPkFJCAVOfQUBPXEl2dAF2bFJipW7Hi2bHW0wa6L4PwufYAj5bnecfplmORSNRD6-_HkEJ6Om5c_Vwl_2cZ7b7MWFBJnPTP1lHSQCSR8L5tWY/s1600/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+003.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiNI_eVnOdrcBEXgcE-iYPtPK0NQAWAigvZPkFJCAVOfQUBPXEl2dAF2bFJipW7Hi2bHW0wa6L4PwufYAj5bnecfplmORSNRD6-_HkEJ6Om5c_Vwl_2cZ7b7MWFBJnPTP1lHSQCSR8L5tWY/s320/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+003.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605429629617866658" /></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg92gnqaG7-aW00q3fM_EuSurrL098uFZEHMlOCmxHXT8eMEasPHelqifyIkYCBZ8Lzi38q6oShdx_ndJU-JaHin0dZ8JNfFQ2uoZlvyYD2rbVK2ng2-bxuKb_shLpCIbhBKL35LuPY1q9s/s1600/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+004.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg92gnqaG7-aW00q3fM_EuSurrL098uFZEHMlOCmxHXT8eMEasPHelqifyIkYCBZ8Lzi38q6oShdx_ndJU-JaHin0dZ8JNfFQ2uoZlvyYD2rbVK2ng2-bxuKb_shLpCIbhBKL35LuPY1q9s/s320/Tasha%2527s+storyboards+004.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5605429779973924642" /></a><br /><br />We also had Stereotypical characters in our main production such as:<br /><br />* Victim<br />* Criminal<br /><br />My research for my anciallary tasks were influenced by Empire film magazine.<br /><br />I found Empire film magazine very helpful, when creating my film review page and film poster.<br /><br />When producing my film poster i followed conventions from this poster:<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9vnA5heh0pKWS5r7XGjmwgcKea1OKCxd5T3HcsXHNjH3I-Wfkiz-1O4eZIpIfAfEcbDDOqIxOdCEv3rl_ThU4rdXlM-FmJkk80uwfDYixkzW2U7aKE91dKXbc2b7kHnD0dhKU3Fva5aMg/s1600/poster1.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 221px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9vnA5heh0pKWS5r7XGjmwgcKea1OKCxd5T3HcsXHNjH3I-Wfkiz-1O4eZIpIfAfEcbDDOqIxOdCEv3rl_ThU4rdXlM-FmJkk80uwfDYixkzW2U7aKE91dKXbc2b7kHnD0dhKU3Fva5aMg/s320/poster1.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603531064064242194" /></a><br /><br />In the film poster above, they have an establishing shot, with an actress's shot in the middle of the poster. Their title is very appealing, with a tagline above it, and like many other film posters they have all the film details displayed at the bottom of the poster. For example, Director's and film distributors etc. <br /><br />I decided to follow these conventions, whilst creating my film poster, so that it can look as professional as possible.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhCA7-PdOqrxPJrkr5nO2aCmdRgwlmNyk3bhHJFoBfeH6uN-LkTCHmkmDNIkGYe_0qgE06q6qGJSoZIlmlORdyWFXI3Xq41mfYe_08MszBneTZ-hozy_u-q9eREH8pjK8PO3fjWRyom60c/s1600/FILM_REVIEW.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 226px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhCA7-PdOqrxPJrkr5nO2aCmdRgwlmNyk3bhHJFoBfeH6uN-LkTCHmkmDNIkGYe_0qgE06q6qGJSoZIlmlORdyWFXI3Xq41mfYe_08MszBneTZ-hozy_u-q9eREH8pjK8PO3fjWRyom60c/s320/FILM_REVIEW.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603532498730403250" /></a><br /><br />I also tried to follow conventions from the image above, when producing my film review page.<br /><br />When producing my main product i used Todorov Theory, which is also displayed on my blog. It helped me to structure my main product. However i do believe that my main product does not follow the typical Todorov Theory. The order of our Todorov theory looks like this:<br /><br /><strong>Equilibrium</strong> - Images of victim at start<br /><br /><strong>Disruption of order</strong> - When victim is hit by car<br /><br /><strong>Recognition that the disorder occured</strong> - Shot of victim lying on grass<br /><br /><strong>Attemp to repair damage</strong> - Dog walker finding victim<br /><br /><strong>Return of new equilibrium</strong> - Shot of victim dead at the end.<br /><br />We also tried to use a range of locations, to keep the audience interested. The locations which we used were:<br /><br />* Sutherlands Pub<br />* Windynook Nature park<br />* Rachel's house<br />* My house<br />* My car<br /><br />At the start of our main product we have several shots of the victim dead on the grass. We put a sci-fi effect on these shots and used ambient sound over the shots, to make it look like a "crime scene investigation". We tried to make it look professional, also by using "fade to black" transitions.<br /><br />However, i believe we as a group both did our best to challenge, develop and use conventions of real media products in our main product. However i think my anciallary tasks, seem to have followed typical conventions more than my main product.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-25476948229245568612011-05-06T01:01:00.001-07:002011-05-11T05:25:03.659-07:00How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?<div style="width:425px" id="__ss_7857818"><strong style="display:block;margin:12px 0 4px"><a href="http://www.slideshare.net/natashaR500/media-a2-evaluation-7857818" title="Media A2 evaluation">Media A2 evaluation</a></strong><object id="__sse7857818" width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=mediapresentation-110506034314-phpapp02&stripped_title=media-a2-evaluation-7857818&userName=natashaR500" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"/><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"/><embed name="__sse7857818" src="http://static.slidesharecdn.com/swf/ssplayer2.swf?doc=mediapresentation-110506034314-phpapp02&stripped_title=media-a2-evaluation-7857818&userName=natashaR500" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="355"></embed></object><div style="padding:5px 0 12px">View more <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/">presentations</a> from <a href="http://www.slideshare.net/natashaR500">natashaR500</a>.</div></div><br /><br />For my ancillary task i had to create a film poster and a film review page to assist my final short film production.

I used a Location image, so that the image would not give away too much of the narrative. However to make i look more effective i changed the lighting on the image. I also used "stars" on my film review page, as it is very conventional. When writing the quotes, i used Famous names of the film industry, to give a more professional feel to my film review page.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-19934766046653005132011-04-28T02:55:00.000-07:002011-04-28T03:08:57.184-07:00EVALUATION QUESTIONS<strong>These are the questions which i have to address in my evaluation.</strong><br /><br />In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products?<br /><br />How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary texts?<br /><br />What have you learnt from your audience feedback?<br /><br />How did you use media technologies in the construction and research, planning and evaluation stages?tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-21555076021003298702011-04-21T03:57:00.001-07:002011-05-10T15:26:35.318-07:00WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT FROM AUDIENCE FEEDBACK?Audience feedback is essential to any film producer. Audience feedback informs film producers whether or not their film will be a success. I, as producer of my short film production "Flashback" chose to aim the film at consumers aged 15 and over. I made decisions which i thought were appropiate and which may influence success for my short film. <br /><br />In order to recieve audience feedback for my final product, we gathered 30 students into a room, where we then screened our short film. They then carried out questionnaires based on the following screening of our film.<br /><br />Results from my audience feedback questionnaire, told me that not everyone agreed that the film should be certified as 15, and that they did not agree, that a range of camera angles or locations had been used. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfkjq9z8_7aRI-q0vK_jUjZMTm6InEw1fWAZ56URTD8mFaahOId2lPUtH89C-2kwrCMTPIVxz1b0SYHLuvHUBkJFyjc9qB9u_MXG4SYzmPsqoqUd43IQ92lfmIvZ6-SOZZJY21CYp55jKX/s1600/feed+back+questionnaire.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfkjq9z8_7aRI-q0vK_jUjZMTm6InEw1fWAZ56URTD8mFaahOId2lPUtH89C-2kwrCMTPIVxz1b0SYHLuvHUBkJFyjc9qB9u_MXG4SYzmPsqoqUd43IQ92lfmIvZ6-SOZZJY21CYp55jKX/s320/feed+back+questionnaire.JPG" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5597991451189629394"></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhArKkwN8mp73rCq-orPz4IDvq1-LTza3d0RoMYVXax5tYEkkt1wlVYKW5PsFWR0mQJ4jPG12wTqK1wAO55L2aLTxVg-Qwc5qicyBS1lrDc34VnLDc20Pb65Csg0WMUjmoSlxZEfjLsdyjN/s1600/Pie+chart+1.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhArKkwN8mp73rCq-orPz4IDvq1-LTza3d0RoMYVXax5tYEkkt1wlVYKW5PsFWR0mQJ4jPG12wTqK1wAO55L2aLTxVg-Qwc5qicyBS1lrDc34VnLDc20Pb65Csg0WMUjmoSlxZEfjLsdyjN/s320/Pie+chart+1.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602992385231088818"></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEb-QAu7IK1wpL6iNgGDdzl4lrYw73upDepKmiH8nMgTjjZ4a9jUX2Xbqnn48-oT1_dxuPSWpxQmfnAEEyRZhFfNWqBYmEw6_76LY_AfBVJKX1TLkk4nHy2dr0anMXsLYeKA9eKXpmOKe3/s1600/pie+chart++2.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjEb-QAu7IK1wpL6iNgGDdzl4lrYw73upDepKmiH8nMgTjjZ4a9jUX2Xbqnn48-oT1_dxuPSWpxQmfnAEEyRZhFfNWqBYmEw6_76LY_AfBVJKX1TLkk4nHy2dr0anMXsLYeKA9eKXpmOKe3/s320/pie+chart++2.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602992531198130642"></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbbn4AU8IxWBkYzgtkEAAL16_NQXsIvTDrmqRrY_oW1xB7EOlP33KPAJ3jvBDJkLZ0mccxGAURahJDpRDAMXHApmJ_8gXvlE7s8-qkHvFjnBxOhHCJd7Xg3xONl18rZ36JJemmQBhwrQ02/s1600/pie+chart+3.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjbbn4AU8IxWBkYzgtkEAAL16_NQXsIvTDrmqRrY_oW1xB7EOlP33KPAJ3jvBDJkLZ0mccxGAURahJDpRDAMXHApmJ_8gXvlE7s8-qkHvFjnBxOhHCJd7Xg3xONl18rZ36JJemmQBhwrQ02/s320/pie+chart+3.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602992693334945362"></a><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Ai9vC0E11Ic0lRK0QVDfoWsjddU3IqjxotEK76l8elVrtj3YDtD8qG6RnuYh9EE4DAHSzp8w9gdeeiQqtyj8NI26S8NeO7ydnxEkmU9dpGVcv7y352Hr_Ru0vuhyhGc-kABr3SYVULHj/s1600/pie+chart+4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg9Ai9vC0E11Ic0lRK0QVDfoWsjddU3IqjxotEK76l8elVrtj3YDtD8qG6RnuYh9EE4DAHSzp8w9gdeeiQqtyj8NI26S8NeO7ydnxEkmU9dpGVcv7y352Hr_Ru0vuhyhGc-kABr3SYVULHj/s320/pie+chart+4.jpg" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5602992875275572210"></a><br /><br />In order to get a wider audience, i posted my final product on the social networking site, "Facebook". Here is some feedback which i recieved from friends on feedback:<br /><br />"Its mint that video Tasha, honestly!!" - <strong>Rachel Gillis </strong><br /><br />"Quite good" - <strong>Enxhi Vyshka</strong><br /><br />"Really good" - <strong>Lauren Dimmick</strong><br /><br />"Eee thats really good" - <strong>Lauren Jairath</strong><br /><br />"You could of had some close up shots switching back and forth to each speaker at each conversation. When the car was driving down, you should have stopped panning and let the car drive past the camera, not a bad start though" - <strong>Tony <br />Ly</strong><br /><br />"Your short film is really good, well done" - <strong>Alex Henry</strong><br /><br />"Well done....Really loved it...car crash bit was espicially good" - <strong>John Gardiner</strong><br /><br />I believe that audience feedback is more important that a film director's thoughts, as a film can not be succesful without the support of their consumers. <br /><br />Overall i am very happy with the feedback which my final product recieved. I believe everyone was very honest while giving feedback.<br /><br />We also recorded some of the audience's responses, here they are.<br /><br /><iframe allowfullscreen='allowfullscreen' webkitallowfullscreen='webkitallowfullscreen' mozallowfullscreen='mozallowfullscreen' width='320' height='266' src='https://www.blogger.com/video.g?token=AD6v5dw0Yo-jtCqQ-B7O8UZs_ej8ekPqWalgPxVaHAAygJvtCIlMSiXvJClKNHSdhpTCgkh74pWfqbVJVh7VdvVHOA' class='b-hbp-video b-uploaded' frameborder='0'></iframe>tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-2782861714524268812011-03-16T08:01:00.000-07:002011-03-16T08:09:35.162-07:00Film Name QuestionnaireMe and Rachel as a group, were very unsure on what Name to use for our short film.

We were very happy with the effort we put into this filming. However when we got back to the classroom we realised that there was a really bad shadow on Connor's face. Which means we are going to have to reshoot this scene sometime. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTsX5jSrJdZpND6pLcS4X5U_Kfk-I-rXS4eVmBjePqf2OewZXoqVRe0zJPk4zqiugMLqB0hnnValXKtWnx0Yf80e288JkMy9dPCFMr6D4KSCz_vFfN-PGquWnqtT6Qko3cOOnKTJuXTp9u/s1600/Connor+Shadow.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 193px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTsX5jSrJdZpND6pLcS4X5U_Kfk-I-rXS4eVmBjePqf2OewZXoqVRe0zJPk4zqiugMLqB0hnnValXKtWnx0Yf80e288JkMy9dPCFMr6D4KSCz_vFfN-PGquWnqtT6Qko3cOOnKTJuXTp9u/s320/Connor+Shadow.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5603559808217254258" /></a>tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-48009018088468518762011-02-07T01:38:00.000-08:002011-02-08T05:19:16.917-08:0003/02/2011On the above date, we tried to film the hit and run scene. However because of heavy rain all day, this made it impossible to film. We did manage to get a quick shot of rachel stepping infront of the car. When we played the shot back we realised a cyclist riding past. This was really annoying, as the shot would of been very effective without the cyclist being in the frame. <br /><br />We have decided to postpone filming this scene until 10/02/2011. To avoid any weather disruptions we have checked next weeks weather forecast, and thursday is going to be "Sunny intervals" :)tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-16971722186067022892011-01-12T06:26:00.000-08:002011-04-15T02:38:41.134-07:00Actors Profiles<strong>Natasha Rutherford</strong><br />Plays the role of: Driver<br />Age: 17<br />Studies: Performance Studies, Media Studies and Business Studies<br />Hobbies/Interests: Reading, Swimming and going to the cinema.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvWEXW-ZER6VLsNuAH4LWFs-0wGKqKmZPbpzpEgVAhB3LNvQ1RkcJYf3fp_Mzzv3RR3qxmewRh0R8P7vcyKKwN4gVvb-4AvHmCNdncdHkJeQxr1CNiDgpdvxwqSNqM3RcbiGG7ucGjvnTq/s1600/Tasha+and+rachelll+002.jpg"><img style="float:right;

The song is "DJ faling in love" - Usher.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-13110819200323911252010-12-06T01:52:00.000-08:002010-12-06T02:18:44.202-08:00Factors which contribute to project.<strong>Blogger</strong><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4E_8xuTqGR2yafUIBeiVJ1IxGPiuIM2tHx7GP6o1UHD2KX0qVuVww4UA3rKpfDQx3A23m0q764v23zAgFnz9bZvsq3B7WfG6sB6DtaQt0AldXnEC3GZvltuegditiiaicm3XsjlVVlLZK/s1600/blogger.png"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4E_8xuTqGR2yafUIBeiVJ1IxGPiuIM2tHx7GP6o1UHD2KX0qVuVww4UA3rKpfDQx3A23m0q764v23zAgFnz9bZvsq3B7WfG6sB6DtaQt0AldXnEC3GZvltuegditiiaicm3XsjlVVlLZK/s320/blogger.png" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5547507579751459058" /></a><br /><br />Blogger is where i upload all of my past and present work.

Wasp was written and directed by Andrea Arnold. The film was released in 2003, starring Danny Dyer Nathalie Press. The short film is about a single mum who is adamant her four children are not going to spoil her date with her ex-boyfriend. This leads to her abandoning them outside of the pub. The film shows the social class of the single mum, and the area she lives in etc. Wasp challenges the audience as; Andrea Arnold uses such a shocking social issue, as the plot. <br /><br />The genre of the film is pretty obvious, from the start of Wasp. We know it’s a drama, as soon as we see the shot of the two mothers fighting. <br /><br />The audience are made aware of the woman’s social class from the first establishing, panning shot. We are aware of the woman’s social class because of her appearance, for example, she is barefooted. The mother’s baby has no clothes on either, which could represent the poverty which is affecting her family. This leads on to a medium shot of the mother walking down the street, this shot establishes the woman as the mother, as her children are following behind her. <br /><br />The dialogue used when the two woman are fighting, sounds clearly like a common, local accent. The children who are watching do not seem bothered, that their mother is fighting, maybe something they see quite often? One of the young daughters shouts “get off her you foul cow”. This contrasts to “well-brought up” children who would not know that sort of language. <br /><br />The woman’s ex-boyfriend seems wealthier than her as he has a car. A reaction shot is used when the Man asks why she is with all those “kids”. The reaction shot is used, to show the woman’s facial expressions and to show how she lies without any hesitation. A close-up shot is shown on her feet, to remind the audience that she is still bare footed. The close up shot may also have been used as the woman may be trying to hide her feet from her ex-boyfriend. <br /><br />The male actor in the film looks like a stereo-typical Chav, because of the clothing he is wearing, and how he wears them. For example, his collar is sticking up, which looks untidy and he is wearing a gold chain. <br /><br />Another reaction, medium shot is used when the male asks the woman if “she wants to go for a drink later”. The mother, glances at her children sitting on the grass, then a close-up shot to the mother, again for the audience to see what her reaction will be to going out for a drink. Diegetic sound is used as you can hear the car engine starting up. However the man try’s three attempts to start his car engine, which means that the car is not in the best of condition. While he is trying to start his car, the camera moves to a shot of the woman, where she seems to be deep in thought, maybe about what she is going to do with her children. <br /><br />A long-shot is used of him driving down the street; this captures the landscape of the neighbourhood. Several sharp, shots are used to also show the neighbour hood. <br />A close-up shot is used on a wasp, which is on a window pane, during this shot, we have diegetic sound coming from the wasp itself, but we also have non-diegetic sound playing in the background. The non-diegetic sound adds a lot of suspense to this shot, also because the title of the film is “Wasp”<br /><br />The mother feeds her children sugar for their tea. This shows the lack of money which she has, as she cannot afford to cook a “proper meal”. It also shows the welfare of these children, and how basically they are being neglected from their own mother. <br /><br />The mother comes across as a bit of a “tart”, because of a close-up panning shot of her walking to the pub. The clothes she is wearing make her look cheap, she is wearing a mini skirt with, but she looks a mess, because of her hair etc. <br /><br />There is a scene where the family are walking over a bridge, which is located above a motorway. Diegetic sound from all the traffic is used at this point. A close-up shot is used on the little girl walking close to the railings on the bridge, and then a long shot is used with a large depth of view of traffic, and a small depth of view of the family walking across the bridge. These two shots are very effective because it makes the audience think, if there is going to be an accident involving the traffic and the little girl. <br /><br />Various, quick, close-up shots are used on the people in the pub. These shots identify what kind of pub it is, by the kind of people who are there. A lot of medium shots have been taking, when the mother is standing at the bar. The shots have been taking from unusual angles, which gives a Voyeur effect.<br /><br />An over-viewing medium shot is used, showing the children outside the pub, playing games in the middle of the road, with screaming dialogue coming from the children. This makes the audience feel uncomfortable at this point, as they could get hurt playing in the middle of the road. The following shot after this is dark, which shows the passing of time, while the mother is on her “date”. <br /><br />At one point the audience is made to feel voyeurs again, when the camera is zoomed in on the woman and her date. This creates a more intimate atmosphere. We are made to feel like voyeurs yet again, in the car scene as the camera is positioned in the rear seats. <br /><br />A close up shot, of the baby crying suggests to the audience, that something is about to happen to the baby. A long shot is used from the children's point of view on a group of males walking with bags of chips in their hands. This shot makes the audience wonder if they will say anything to the children. A reaction shot is used, from the bag of chips lying on the floor, to the children's faces. We know from this shot, that the children pick the chips up off the floor. <br /><br />A close-up camera shot shows a wasp on the baby's cheek. This image, takes the audience back to the start of the film, where there was also a scene involving a wasp. It also relates to the title of the film itself. <br /><br />Towards the end of the film, a scene is shown, where the whole family are sitting in the car eating chips. However there is an awkward silence in the car. Diegetic sound is used again, when the male actor starts his car, it takes several attempts to start, which happened at the start of the film. <br /><br />At the end of the film, a long shot of the car driving down the street is used. As we see the car driving away, non-diegetic sound has been used. For example, music starts to play, and the children sing. This shows that the children do not seem affected by the nights antics. The credits then follow. The credits are very plain and simple, a black background with white writing, with the song “Hey Baby” playing, which was also featured in the pub scene.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-9602937256337049542010-11-16T07:31:00.001-08:002010-12-01T06:12:39.710-08:00Location shotsHere are our location shots, for our short film production. <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhZYU8JRs0pE9cBhSvtyoA3s9NGy68dYGKxe89iVgyMH8Q5p-SlOvlmK2ydOgH9Nb3yGo1GTvlsbGdoDtkpQbHNkDQSv96pH1f3Uxm_kKWm6ITpo6ycJeIN2csuqu5NbAu0pPmlbD6zTI3-/s1600/P1030354.JPG"><img style="float:left;

The short film will fall into thriller/horror genre. <br /><br /><strong>Summary of short film</strong><br /><br />The short film will start off with a scene of a couple arguing outside the males house. The female leaves her boyfriends house and starts walking along a long abandonned road, she is then struck by a car driven by two young girls, who have been drinking in a local pub. <br /><br />The car drives off and leaves rachel. She only has a certain amount of time before she will die. <br /><br />The first establishing shot will be off rachel lying on the side of the road, after being struck by a car. After this establishing shot, the short film will go back in memories of how this girl ended up being knocked down.<br /><br />We have decided to share out all responsibilities between the pair of us, this will make it less complictaed. We will also be both taking part in acting.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-91152101461881482022010-10-28T04:25:00.003-07:002010-10-28T04:25:46.137-07:00FILMINGWe will be filming some of the memory scenes on Monday.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-74366232423085081602010-10-20T06:05:00.000-07:002010-10-20T06:36:42.375-07:00Location enquiriesPret a Manger, will not be used for a location anymore, as we wanted to film at the Pret a Manger in fenwicks, but due to it nearly being christmas time and the department store will become very busy, the store manager has said they would like no disruptions.<br /><br />Newcastle airport, have been in touch but nothing is confirmed yet.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-63335797607165079932010-10-20T05:47:00.000-07:002010-10-20T06:10:07.943-07:00Costume ideas<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieZWHeWWLNc8cCEQjC2AYl-vsgkkzg3MI3Sf5ARgXr8k_KkyGpXpy9_fu_PXw7OuGQ26WIokz7ZgF4_9EPy0cusWp_HeMPUg5QytSa37GNrogACr-1MUjPUHa4-igxWhoi0F59F9iqmWUo/s1600/untitled.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 143px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEieZWHeWWLNc8cCEQjC2AYl-vsgkkzg3MI3Sf5ARgXr8k_KkyGpXpy9_fu_PXw7OuGQ26WIokz7ZgF4_9EPy0cusWp_HeMPUg5QytSa37GNrogACr-1MUjPUHa4-igxWhoi0F59F9iqmWUo/s320/untitled.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5529323246116122562" /></a><br /><br />This is one of the costumes, which the female actor will where, when being filmed in South Shields.

He will wear a t-shirt, jacket, jeans and trainers. Below are links of the costumes similar to what the actor will be wearing.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33056&storeId=12555&productId=1825759&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=207190&parent_categoryId=207183&sort_field=Relevance&pageSize=20">T Shirt</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33056&storeId=12555&productId=1563091&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=207213&parent_categoryId=207200&sort_field=Relevance&pageSize=20">Jacket</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33056&storeId=12555&productId=1801933&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=207653&parent_categoryId=207170&sort_field=Relevance&pageSize=20">Jeans</a><br /><br /><a href="http://www.topman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?beginIndex=0&viewAllFlag=&catalogId=33056&storeId=12555&productId=1949422&langId=-1&sort_field=Relevance&categoryId=207285&parent_categoryId=207282&sort_field=Relevance&pageSize=20">Trainers</a>tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4681112828116605813.post-11968478969035202812010-10-20T05:44:00.000-07:002010-10-20T05:45:42.492-07:00Music video's analysisI chose threee music videos to anaylze and to get ideas, for our group. As i am filming, and in charge of costume/make-up/props it will be good to see how costume relates to the plot of the music video.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344" id="muzuplayer-armandvanhelden-1286373245103" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/Wgrhnnh3f5frxlid/vidId=40424"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><embed src="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/Wgrhnnh3f5frxlid/vidId=40424" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="transparent" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344" name="muzuplayer-armandvanhelden-1286373245103"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.muzu.tv/armandvanhelden/i-want-your-soul-music-video/40424">Armand Van Helden - I Want Your Soul</a><br /><br />The costumes that are worn in "I want your soul" are typical american Hip Hop style. The clothing is very bright and colourful, which reflects the mood in the music video. The main prop used in "I want your soul" is a boom box, which the community dances to. I counted 78 shots in the 3:18 minute music video. Alot of very fast, sharp edits are used in the middle of the music video. When the music is slowly stopping at the end of the song, a medium shot of the Man and woman, fades out, to end the video.<br /><br /><object width="425" height="344" id="muzuplayer-pendulum-1286372972234" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/KUTdDjxxA8/vidId=623238"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><embed src="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/KUTdDjxxA8/vidId=623238" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="transparent" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344" name="muzuplayer-pendulum-1286372972234"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.muzu.tv/pendulum/watercolour-music-video/623238">Pendulum - Watercolour</a><br /><br />At the beginning of "Watercolour", a shot of the galaxy is shown, just before the music starts. Medium close-up shot of Pendulum singing, only half the face is showing, as other face is shadowed. The music video uses alot of bright visual colours and patterns. When the chorus comes in, the shots move to a party scene, where everyone is wearing black clothing, which represents the mood of the song. There is also water spraying everywhere. When the sun appears, the lighting of the music video changes, and everyones faces are visible. ALot of blurry shots are used, and sharp transactions. <br /><br /><object width="482" height="323" id="muzuplayer-eminem-1286374178099" classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="movie" value="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/MPNwY5JMJG/vidId=712604"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="bgcolor" value="#000000"></param><param name="quality" value="high"></param><embed src="http://www.muzu.tv/player/getPlayer/a/MPNwY5JMJG/vidId=712604" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowScriptAccess="always" wmode="transparent" quality="high" bgcolor="#000000" allowfullscreen="true" width="482" height="323" name="muzuplayer-eminem-1286374178099"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.muzu.tv/eminem/love-the-way-you-lie-music-video/712604">Eminem - Love The Way You Lie</a><br /><br />In "Love the you lie" Eminem is wearing a White vest and jeans. The man in the house is wearing jogging bottoms, to show that he was just lazing around in the house, and his girlfriend is wearing a vest and shorts. One of the props used in this music video, is a bottle of beer which the man is drinking in a bar. This scene shows that he has things on his mind. The girl in this video, is very pretty and i think the man is scared of losing her, thats why he acts so aggressive. His image represents his peronality, as he has stubble and tattoos, which makes him look rough.tasha93http://www.blogger.com/profile/13798148167242834994noreply@blogger.com0
