(POST 10) Cinematography creating a storyboard from The Gold Rush

-

For this task we were given a short clip from The Gold Rush, in this section we were given we had to recreate the 1 minute 20 second. we had to find the actors and setting to recreate this.

Before we started filming we had to create a story board focussing on each shot in the time frame given. each shot can change for each section so we recorded them all down in the form of a story board. we also noted the time each section was and the key moverments of the characters.   

Each member of the group had a particular section to record and make notes on, we felt the use of the story board helkped us alot when it came to filming. In the story board we noted down the exact place each character was facing/looking/moving and also their interactions with other characters.

After we had completed the story board we had to choose are characters and also the settting for this recording.We had Dan as our main male character, Alice as the main female character, Megan, Neve and Emily as the group of ladies. we feel these charcaters fufilled their roles and made our recording really succesful.

Him and Her- scene 2: For this task we got given, we have to pick a scene out of him and her, and produce some paragraphs on a particular part of mise-en-scene. I choose costume and makeup and also lighting. Costume and Makeup: In this scene, its Steve's birthday, and he is ill, which gives us a sense of unexcitment and sadness. Steve is wearing a dressing gown in bed, which implies that he is feeling lazy and wants to relax. Even though its his birthday, his costume and makeup shows that he is feeling unwell and doesn't want to communicate with anyone. Steve and Becky are both very lazy people, however in this scene Becky is dressed and has her makeup done, which shows she is feeling ready and is excited for steves big day. Costumes and makeup, for the other charcters, show off effort and time they have put in, just for steves birthday. This shows a contrast between steves day and the other characters day, and how they are feeling individually.  Lighting: The light

Kuleshov Effect Videos In Wymondham town centre we filmed many short clips of videos of members of the public watching our Kuleshov Effect video. We then asked them to identify the emotion they believe the character is showing after each clip. We asked a range of people and then created a short video which showed their replies. We also asked some of the members of the public about films from a set of questions we had created.  At the end of the 3 videos we explained that in fact the character clip hasn't changed in any of the 6 times they saw it and it is actually the Kuleshov Effect of seeing a particular image sandwiched between a person that has put this thought into their minds.
