My Media Sound Project


The video I made today was created by clipping different parts of movie clips together over music.

Editing Task

Image
This is the opening scene is from the movie Apocalypse Now. This scene shows how to artfully use dissolve cuts to make an elegant scene. The scene first starts a  fade  into a seemingly peaceful scene of trees. Slowly the music begins to kick in with the sound of helicopter blades (a helicopter flies in front of the shot to further solidify this assumption) in the background and a green mist growing within the shot. The scenery then begins to change suddenly and begins to fill with explosions, this shows audiences the true chaos of war and how destructive it can be. The camera then begins to slowly  pan  to the right as the smog and smoke begins to thicken, this increase in smoke helps create a very effective  transition  for a  dissolved transition  of a man, presumably apart of the war that is commencing, having flashbacks of what he had seen during battle. After this first  dissolve cut , most of the scenes that follow are  dissolve cuts  that are layered on top of each other, t

Film & TV Language: Mise-en-scene star persona

This transformation was inspired by Demons in movies, tv shows, and even video games. I wanted to go for a horror theme with the editing and the sound effects used in the first scene. For the makeup in the task, I used my sisters help to create large black holes around my eyes. This was done to make my face seem unusual than how it usually is, this was done due to a scientific study that has shown that beings that look like humans but don't share the same traits (e.g normal eyes, face, etc) create fear more easily. The horns are DIY create with paper mache, I chose to create the horns since its a typical attribution of demons to have, but I've chosen to attach them in a different way (Resembling some of the figures above). I chose to use glitchy editing techniques as it used commonly in horror movies

Film Poster Analysis

Image
Blade Runner: From what the poster is portraying, I believe that Blade Runner (1982) is a Science Fiction movie due to many things. First, the art style resembles that of the Star Wars franchise, a trilogy that came out at around the same time period (Star Wars the Return of the Jedi had come out at 1983, one year after Blade Runner had been released). The towers present in the poster look very advanced to represent any tower that existed at that time, and the flying vehicle also shows that the movie is set in the future. The colour pallet mainly consists of yellows, reds, and splashes of blue, these colours are common in action/science fiction movies. The tense expression on Harrison Ford's face along with the strange gun in his hand shows that throughout the movie there will be moments of stress, a feeling that is synonymous with action movies.  I believe that the movie is targeted towards men around 16-35 years old, that's mainly due to the action/Scie nce fiction natu
