Camera Shot

For the short movie the first shot we used was an establishing shot to mid shot and there was a movement of tilt , the shots denote the surrounding and define the character as franki is coming into the shot , what the movement connotes as the shot is moving as the short movie is active , which is  display the scenario of the short movie. The second shot we used was a close up with a movement of tracking , what the close up denoted as a worried facial expression and  with glasses on of the character of franki , which connoted the dramatics and intensity of the short movie , as the close up shot allows the viewer be more in depth , the movement connotes the speed of the character as (franki) was moving slow because of the close up of his facial expression of him worried. Bit further on in the storyboard the 8 shot we used was meant to be a close up of the hand but included a mid shot of the second character through doors window the canted angle , what the shot denotes is a hand opening a door and through the glass door is where the character is sitting , what this shot connotes is who the room belong to and who the character is meeting as this shot define two things , is who the owner and what action is being committed.

Mise-En-Scene

The production design of the short movie was an office (Mr rumbles), as we used this because it connotes a high authority , as the character that own the office is a Boss , with high standers.
Lighting of the short movie we used was , natural and artificial lighting ,we used this to make the the movie realistic as possible, we use artificial lighting because it made us in control of the shadows and define the character clearly , we had artificial lighting used as this connoted pure look to the characters, as this define each character as , good or bad. The actor Performance display the different between each character , as the Boss (ben) denote a loud and up front presents of his voice , and show a st urn and frustrated facile expression , what this connotes is power and authority of the Boss , but Franki is denotes and voice as quit and with his head down , what this connote is weakness and defined as a sheep as he get told what to do  , both of these character have be defined with separate hierarchy. The costume we used where high class , as both character were denoted of wearing suits the boss was wearing a blue suite with a blue waist coat as the other was wearing a black suite with a wait and blazer , what this connote is a serious business , showed the different between two character.

Music

For the music we are using is the Godfather 3 soundtrack , of the video the time code starts at (33 min -37 min) we choose this piece of music because it contained something mysterious which would fit right into the short movie as it well create a different feel to the short movie. what this sound track would indicate is that the short movie is a gangster theme movie , because of the soundtrack. This part of soundtrack contains opera into it which creates a different era to the short movie as this movie signifies movie such a goodfelles or the mafia as there are in different era of times and have the same theme as us as we have gangster , the soundtrack signifies , high authority and trust.



Shot List

Graphics

For the credits we have include the same materiel you see in the Title graphics , but include the people that were involved and created this short movie , The background denote as being a dark black ,what this connotes to the audience that

An review of Star Wars:Return of the Jedi

Star wars :Return of the Jedi (DVD)
     The Movie I have Watched was Star wars IV : Return of the Jedi that was released June 2nd 1983. The movie was directed by Richard Marquand . The writer of the script was George lucus. The Genre Of the Movie is Si-Fi , Mark Hamill was the main character as he played Luke Skywalker. 

The Star Wars : return of the Jedi created by George lucus was one of the most successful film made as it was placed 76th top movie of all time. As this movie made £450 million across the world. This movie include the biggest well know star to the fancies , as it include Carrie fisher, Mark Hamill, Harrison ford and also included the  the well know R2-D2 , C-P30 , Chewbacca and not forgetting the Ewoks.

George lucus displayed something unique into the Star Wars movie as the set location of the movie which was not expected to be , but was located on the earth ground and also in space , as the star wars movie has      a representation to me that the movie is only located in                                                                 space , as this was a stereotype to describe the movie.
Ewoks

The writer George lucus adds hidden humors into the movie ,as he display the Ewoks as there are like young children , they bring a funny cuddle view to it. Also what George lucus does it bring a funny relationship between R2-D2 and the C-P30 as there are both robots , there both communicate in a weird and unique way 

Within the movie George lucus had displayed some unwanted and bad looking scene into the movie , as the CGI of the movie look horrible and unfitting in the movie for , as some of the character look fake as this could have been effected by the year this was made in 1983 as where the new technology 

"Spoiler Warning"
The movie also shows a heart hitting side to the story , as two of the most well know character know to the audience have a tragic ending as both of them end with a advice speech to luke skywalker. But what had made it tearful to watch was the ending as thing remarks a relationship of a beginning and forever in luke skywalker heart.

This movie display a lot of convention a movie should contain , as i would give this movie a solid 8.3 out of 10 because George lucus show us the story line clearly and define each character and there roles , he also breaks the stereotype of a Star wars film of just being placed in space. Overall this Star wars : Return of the Jedi bring a different flavor to the movie industry.

Mise-En-Scene

The task we were assigned to do was ,to take four camera shot to define four different scenario , there were gangster , action , teen romance and thriller, what we had to include was a thought of lighting , props , set and the era within the shot of the scenario. Down below all 4 shot are show in there raw form:


Gangster
Teen Romance
Action

Thriller

The Best Shot 

Gangster
Adulthood (2008 movie)


I believe that this was a successful shot of the scenario of "gangster" as the Mise-En-Scene was define. as the costume was denoted as dark and non reveling to the audience , this connoted a costume as a character of this shot would were in this situation. The location of the set is also denoted as it is be hide a building , as this connotes a normal stereotype would hang out. Also the era is denoted as it is in the evening where these two character are meeting which connotes that a situation is gradually going to turn dark. Also the camera angle define authority of the characters in the shot. Overall this shot describe the scenario of gangster. This shot is related to the movie adulthood as it is a English gangster dram movie







The Worst Shot

Action

The Green Hornet


This was the least successful shot we took of the scenario of "action" as the Mise-En-Scene was not up to the scenario. As the background should have action in to connotes that there is something dramatic is going on . as this shot does not connotes action due to the location of the set . Also the costume of the character does not connotes that this is actions it goes back to the scenario of gangster because of the customer . As the Green Hornet shown action denoted in the background as there is a explosion , also the costume of the character define seriousness and authority also the ear of this shot describe that it is set in a different time.

Gallows

Another movie i watched was a genera of horror , it was the Gallows , this movie related back to the audience of 16-19 as it was filmed and set in a school. My favourite scene within the movie was near the ending as it denoted two victim a male and a female on a theatre stage wearing casual clothes and with low body language , with a light pointed at them , this connoted to an react a play for the antagonist , which allows him to kill the victims nicely. I liked watching this movie because it had a history to the story line , and i also like watching it because it was my favourite genre of movie which is horror.
