Genre Research

 


    Earlier in the school year, I was assigned an Aice genre project. we were told to chose one movie genre and research it. I chose "Horror". I enjoy horror movies so that is the reason why I decided to choose this genre. In Horror films, they use different types of lighting. There are four main types of lighting used in Horror films. There are "uplighting", "spotlight", "silhouette", and "underexposure". These different lighting techniques are used to make better effects. They make the movie more dramatic for the audience. Different types of lighting would just confuse the audience. Camera angles are also used to show how dramatic the scenes are. There are four common camera angles. The camera angles are " low angle", "birds-eye", "close-ups", and "tilted angles". Again these make scenes a lot more dramatic. Different camera angles would have messed up the mood of those movies. Some famous horror movies are "It", "Friday the 13th", and "Escape room". Most horror movies use Mis-En-Scene. They use different costumes, props, and much more. Some common sounds used in a horror film are breathing, scary laughing, screaming and more. Details like these will be found in any horror films.

 Storyboarding is the process of envisioning your ideas. A quick outline supported by a moderate picture. This gives you an idea of what you'll be filming before you start. This allows you to put your thoughts on paper and organize them. You'll have a clearer idea of what's going on if the story is more descriptive. You map exactly what you'll film and how it'll look scene by scene. Storyboarding is extremely helpful and necessary for the filming stage to run smoothly.

Production Blog final task

    Many of the filming processes have been disrupted for about a week. We're also trying to find out when we'll be able to restart the filming. We're hoping to do it this week during peak daylight hours. To reshoot the entire movie's opening sequence. After reviewing the footage from the previous attempt, we decided to tweak a few minor details. To make the actress stand out more to the audience, we will change her outfit to a lighter choice. For the actress and the specifics to be more lit up, I'll change the lighting to natural light. The camera angles would also be altered to better accommodate the actress's gestures. The setting will be altered to create a more dreamlike atmosphere. I'll also be working on the character's dialogue.

AICE Commercial Reflection questions

Name: Joshua Turk 1.   How does your product use or challenge conventions AND how does it represent social groups or issues?       When I was filming my commercial, I wanted to make it seem as realistic as possible. I planned on doing it at a baseball field with great weather conditions. Unfortunately, I could not because the weather was not cooperating and the field was flooded. So I resolved to my backup plan. I filmed in a grass field area with a bit of rain. I believe it still looked good even though it would have been better if it was on an actual field. 2.  How does your product engage with audiences AND how would it be distributed as a real media text?      My project engages with the audience by showing and advertising the product to the viewers. I showed them how and what it is used for. When watching a commercial, the point of it is to advertise something and make people want to buy that product. For example, commercials such as Geico show their famous lizard speaking about i
