2049 Blade Runner Review

Review 1 :
I do believe that the movie offers an amazing amount of eye candy for the audience but not in the typical form of extremely vibrant colours, but in more of a subtle epic form. I also agree with the fact that the movie does not follow the same typical fast action pacing that today's blockbusters follow and follows its own and correct pacing which helps the phenomenal story the movie provides. The two composers Benjamin Wallfisch and Hans Zimmer provide an almost angelic audio experience creating a masterpiece when paired with the stunning visuals.

Review 2
This interview is very similar to the first interview, this is mainly due to the fact that the movie was so brilliant, and it is a shame that the movie did not do as well in the box office than it did. This interview again touches on the brilliance of the visual effects and the amazing scenery created within the movie. I do also agree with the second review when it described the movie as a lucid dream with the combination of the visual, creative and audio Blade Runner 2049 manages to combine to create the masterpiece that it is

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

Image
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

Moonlight Review

Moonlight follows the life story of a homosexual African-American man named Chiron in a rough drug-ridden Miami. The movie follows the narrative in three separate sections, each showing different stages of Chiron's life and the problems he faced with his sexuality. In the first stage of the movie, Chiron is portrayed to be a quiet boy that speaks very few words, this alone already gives the audience an understanding as to how little affection he had received in his childhood, being ignored by his mother and not knowing his father leaves a toll on him as a child which is again portrayed by how he speaks very little, even when he is shown love and affection by Juan and Teresa, but this lack of a father figure opens way to and important character Juan, a local drug dealer, Juan, and Teresa were the only people that cared for Chiron, this effection goes a long way as Teresa then becomes a parental figure for Chiron as his real mother is constantly on drugs. It is also at this age tha
