(POST 3) Opening Task Planning Continued

-


Lilly:This pupil also played a yr9 student girl, who gave a good opinion on what she thought 'that' could symbolise. This was a good answer for a young student, who had never listened to the song in the past, since player it to her.
Yr9 male student:This student played a year 9 pupil in our media project. He gave us a good opinion on the song  'I'll do anything for love' Meatloaf, as he had heard this song before.  He told us that  the 'that' in the song could symbolise "that he won't buy expensive" items for the person that the song is written for.










Yr9 male student:This student was reluctant in participating in a manner we were expecting. He told us that he thought that the words had no hidden meaning and  meant exactly what was written, that he "would do anything for love". on the other hand this answer was one our weakest opinions.
Yr9 male student: Lastly, this pupil, gave their view on this song, by explaining how 'he would go to any extent for love' but just not the particular thing he is talking about. Again this student had never heard this song before.
Yr9 female student: This pupil played a yr9 student girl, who couldn't work out what the 'that' meant in the meatloaf song, as she had never listened to the song before. once she discussed it with her friend she agreed to her friend's view.
Teacher: we asked a older aged teacher who gave their view on this song, to start with she didn't have an answer on what 'that' could symbolise, but after playing it too her a few times she gave us a really good answer that could be true.
Muscian; This student, played a musician. she gave us a really detailed opinion on what 'that' could mean in this song, we thought involving a person who has had experience with music would benefit our music video, and give a good idea on what the answer to our question could be.
Yr12 Male pupil: We included a older Male student, who has never heard the song before. he had no clue what the 'that' could mean in this song, and simply said 'who knows'. The 'that' in this song still has no meaning and no one truly knows the explanation behind it.
Yr12 Female pupil: This older yr 12 female student also gave a strong opinion on this song. By involving a older but young student in our video, it gives us a range of ages to work with. This answer was probably one of our strongest opinions. She had heard this song before which makes her opinion on this song even stronger.
Yr12 Male pupil: Finally, we included a older Male student, who has only heard the song a couple of times before. He gave a detailed reasoning for the meaning behind the "that" in the song and his ideas of the meaning.

(POST 34) Macro elements of the film form

Mother! Representation -  All the character's in the film, aren't named which I think shows how no one has an identity. all of the characters don't show any personalities through this film, as the main focus is on the visitors, and how they are controlling them. The main character 'mother!' who is played by the actress 'Jennifer Lawrence' shows a lot of emotions and face expressions throughout the film, which makes the audience feel her emotions too. Her makeup on set is quite natural, if wearing any at all. Her costume, is also very plain and basic. The character 'him' who is played by the actor 'Javier Bardem'  has a very unusual personality, that I find hard to work out. Throughout the film, it came across to me that he cares more about his reputation/career  than his girlfriend. His costume, is also quite smart and tidy which shows how he takes his career really seriously. As said previously the camera is mainly focussed on '...

(POST 16) The kuleshov effect

Kuleshov Effect What do you understand by The Kuleshov Effect? The Kuleshov Effect is a film editing (montage) effect demonstrated by Soviet filmmaker Lev Kuleshov in the 1910s and 1920s. It is a mental phenomenon by which viewers derive more meaning from the interaction of two sequential shots than from a single shot in isolation. The Kuleshov Effect is a well-documented concept in film-making, discovered by Soviet film editor Lev Kuleshov in the 1920s. Kuleshov put a film together, showing the expression of an actor, edited together with a plate of soup, a dead woman, and a woman on a recliner. Audiences praised the subtle acting, showing an almost imperceptible expression of hunger, grief, or lust in turn. The reality, of course, is that the same clip of the actor's face was re-used, and the effect is created entirely by its superimposition with other images. is. According to Kuleshov, this came into being largely by necessity. Soviet cinema in...
