Creating a Music Video In AS level production our chosen brief was to construct an opening sequence to a film based on the thriller genre that was no longer than 2 minutes long. This already differs to the brief chosen in A level as I chose to produce a music video based on the genre of my choice. A music video differs greatly to a film as I am concentrating on a completely different text within media. Different acknowledgement had to be considered when filming as a video uses different
picked on and have no long term control over what happens to us. Recently my school was plagued of talk of the video cameras that had just been installed in our school. Small purple spheres were placed down in the corridors, hallways, atrium and even outside. The students were not consulted. They were not surveyed. They weren't even informed of the decision. We arrived and the cameras were there. We are being observed every move we make. One of my friends was pulled out of class and accused by the
creative ways to present the material so it is fun and interesting for his or her students. Some examples are games, “hands-on” activities, and/ or movies relating to the topics being covered. In The First Year, Genevieve DeBose gave disposable cameras to her students for a”getting to know each other” activity. The point of this activity was for her students to be creative and learn about their peers. During this activity Genevieve also learned about her students, like their attitudes toward participating
photographic cameras. Technology always seems to take over and the film industry seems poised to be the next target. With digital picture acquisition getting better everyday, movies are beginning to be shot completely digital. There are a number of plusses and minuses of shooting digitally but digital cinematography will soon replace film in most productions. The emergence of digital or "electronic" cinematography, began in the late 1980's. Sony came up with an idea for a HDTV camera but there was
Odyssey (USA 1968; Stanley Kubrick). The computer HAL is malfunctioning and tries to get rid of the crewmembers. The only survivor is Dave Bowmen, who decides to disconnect HAL, and heads toward the Logic Memory Centre Room. Middle Shot: The camera is above Dave as he begins to remove HAL’s memory blocks. The room is extremely narrow and it is lighted by an aggressive red light, the preponderant colours are black and red. The mise-en.scene guides the audience’s response to an oppressed, stressed
photography because he needed money. He sold his photographs to artists in a town called Montparnasse. He sold his photos as "documents for artists." Painters often did their paintings based on actual photos. In the mid 1890s, Atget purchased his first camera and started to photograph thousands and thousands of images of the sights and people of Paris. In 1899 he moved to Montparnasse, where...
Strabismus A camera lens focuses patterns of light onto film which records the image exactly. If the lens is out of focus or partially covered, a b lurry or obscured picture will result. The film is a recording device, it does not interpret and select what it portrays. Images from a camera are objective in a very literal sense. Seeing, however, is not such a seamless process. Our eyes work similarly to a camera in that they have a lens which focuses a real image on our retina, a light sensitive

The Capricious Camera In the years between 1933 and 1945, Germany was engulfed by the rise of a powerful new regime and the eventual spoils of war. During this period, Hitler's quest for racial purification turned Germany not only at odds with itself, but with the rest of the world. Photography as an art and as a business became a regulated and potent force in the fight for Aryan domination, Nazi influence, and anti-Semitism. Whether such images were used to promote Nazi ideology, document the
Popular Music and Youth Culture My chosen topic was popular music and youth culture. A focus for my project started to develop after I observed that the range of music genres represented through media formats such as multichannel TV and the radio is becoming increasingly diverse. I also noticed that pop music itself if becoming more diverse, and that youth culture seems to be fragmenting into smaller more niche groups
which results in him being hanged on the 28th January, 1953. Since then his innocence has been proven. In this piece I will consider all the aspects of the opening four scenes that make Bentley appear in a sympathetic light. I will look at camera angles, music and how other media devices have been used, as well as how characters are portrayed. Different techniques are used in the opening scene to create sympathy for Derek Bentley. First of all, during the opening credits we hear sirens
external shots of the set, creating the impression of a higher budget production. Like the modern version, many of the camera shots of the actors are waste upward, emphasising reactions, responses and emotions. In my opinion Polanski's version was no doubt the best, it re-enacted the play "Macbeth" to a degree the other two version could only dream of. Intricate camera angles, attention to detail, emphasis on key points and excellent setting all added to the overall feel of authenticity
Manipulation of the Audience's Emotions in the Film Let Him Have It My overall impressions of the film are basically to the point that it was very successful in manipulating my feelings, to feel for Derek Bentley. Throughout the film, I was manipulated by many means, to believe that Derek was innocent, and should not have been hanged, as he, the film manipulates us to believe, has done nothing wrong. The definition of manipulation is this: "With skill, to influence by unfair means or cunning
Documentary Production Cameras There are three basic types of camera: * Film camera (35mm, 16mm, 8mm); * Analogue video camera (Betacam Sp, U-Matic) - these became widely available in the 1970s; * Digital video camera CDv, Mini Dv, Digi-Beta)- these became widely available in 1995 and are now nearly all broadcast quality. The advantages of the video camera: Cost: * The film camera retails from approximately £10,000; the analogue video camera from £8,000 and broadcast quality
Since the beginning of Documentary Filmmaking, films have shown the eternal search for truth. Exposing reality as it is to the world through Film became a goal to Documentary Filmmakers. For a period of time Filmmakers lost their path along the way and became promoters who manipulated the audience around the world into believing what they wanted. During the 1960’s two special movements began to emerge in different parts of the world. Direct Cinema in North America and Cinema Vérité in Fance. These
George Eastman in Rochester, New York, under the name Eastman Dry Plate Company. Eastman had spent the previous few years of his life trying to improve on the way images were transmitted once taken on a camera. When Eastman first became interested in photography, the images that were taken on a camera were done so by using wet film plates. He spent the next couple years trying to develop film on dry plates, obtaining a few patents along the way, but it wasn’t until 1883 that he made a huge discovery
An investigation into the theory that photography is an entity constructed by three fundamental processes; a concept, an image and a viewer and how they if at all contribute to the communication of a photograph. This report investigates the theory that photography is constructed with three main components. 1) The concept – The foundation of a photograph. The concept gives the image meaning and the photographer a reason to photograph. 2) The Image- The outcome of the concept. The main body of
It is considered that photography only became widely available to the public when the Kodak Eastman Company introduced the box shaped Brownie Camera in 1900. (Baker, n.p.) Its features became more refined since its original placing on the market; one of the reasons why it has become considered the birth of public photography is because of the processing. Using a similar image capture system, the brownie exposed the light to a 120mm roll of film, which could be wound round, meaning six photographs
‘Bottari’. She then used these works in her video installations and performances. Her method of working was unique, in which she considered her own body as ‘needle or thread’ and the world as the ‘canvas’. Her performances were recorded with video camera with immense amount of energy so as to interact with the world. In the show “Kimsooja Unfolding” at Vancouver Art Gallery, there were many incredible videos and the fabric works. But out of all those works, I consider the most interesting work is
conflict between order and chaos can only be demonstrated if all three elements which are narrative, mise-en scene and characters are displayed in the movie. In every movie the camera can be considered a narrative, it displays through its cameras lens the story of the movie. (Film, 2013, p. 123). Mise-en scene and camera work together to display to the audience the story of the movie, In Gun Crazy chaos is displayed before order, as young Bart breaks the window of hardware store a...
