 Some aspects of the film that I liked were how it followed us through the process of the (actual/real) victims. It’s storyline and whole objectives were clear and building climax as it went on. Mainly focusing on Justice and what’s right. The dialogue within its self had a lot of strong language both in and out school ground. Many times the characters spoke with determining dialogue in the high end and lower class communities . •music playing in background that can be heard Props included were guns, illegals substances such as alcohol, cigarettes, marijuana  etc. props were mostly evident in the settings of the low end neighborhoods and parties. Cops, drug dealers and youth activists were more prominent as characters in the film.  They contain a lot of white shots for example when one of the important characters was shot and when they were surrounded by police in a cop car. Giving the audience a wide view of what was going on. How do you see the low angle when star (the main character

Genre Research: Monster

Common CLAMPS in Monster ?   High angle shots were used to make the main character look shy and scared.   Ove the shoulder shots were used when the main character was answering the interrogation questions.   Clothing like prison uniforms and police uniforms   The common locations were like jail, police station, gas station and basketball court.   Common sound in Monster?   Sound was playing in the background while the crime was happening.       Common editing in Monster ?   There were cutaways in between the officer and main character speaking.         Elements of Crime in Monster ?   The elements that this movie contained that gave off it was a crime movie was right in the beginning when the movie started with a movie scene. Then how it moved into the main character being blamed for the crime and being booked into jail.       What elements of Crime did Monster have that you liked?   I liked how they were switching back from what led up to the crime happening and the present, him

Genre Decision

  Out of all genres we researched, intelligent crime genre was the most interesting to us. There were components where we knew it would be easier for us to access . We found that it would be so much easier to do something we have lotta of knowledge on since we do watch a lot of crime shows and movies. We have experience using some of the angles and acting in situations similar to those in crime films. And when it comes to props it wouldn’t be an issue when considering what would be both allowed and available.the genres were good indeed, but it was the miscellaneous things such as props and acting that made Choosing crime,  so easy.

Genre Research: Drama

  Common Camera Angles in your Genre - A close up is used to emphasize the expression on a persons face or to make it clear that the object is important. - A long shot is used to show the person/object in a scene with the surroundings - A birds eye or high angle shot is shot from above or at a higher angle than the object/character. These are typically used to gain perspective or to imply that the character/object is of lesser meaning than something else. - Medium shots can have the setting in the background but the main focus will be on the character in shot, so the background tends to be blurred out to bring all the audiences attentions to the main character and their emotions in the scene. Common Mis-en-Scene in your Genre? - Costumes in a drama are supposed to represent the character and their personality. An antagonist may wear dark clothing to portray dark intentions. - High Key Lighting Everything looks bright with little to no shadow at all. High-key lighting has little dramati

  • Common Camera Angles in action Action Films?  Usually there’s an establishing shot to basically set the tone and setting of where the adventure is going to take place — lots of close ups shots, to dramatize and put emphasis on what is going in the film. Mainly grabbing  the audiences attention and adding more attention to what’s happening — there’s always some point of view shots, in moments where something exciting or in action is happening, giving the audience the feel that they’re actually their experiencing it since it’s a view from what the character is seeing. —  • Common Mis-en-Scene in Action Films?  Bright, Bold saturated lighting along with it sometimes being dark toned, greyish on intense fight scenes. props usually containing weapons like guns and/or knives.

Our Pitch

Image
 "A Group of girls make a bad decision which lands them in a interrogation room" It would be interested in making this film because we both love crime movies/shows. So we know a lot about what goes on in these films. Also, it  wouldn't really be a problem to access a group of girl to be in the film. What could be a problem though is finding somewhere to replicate an interrogation room. But other than that I think this would be a good idea. “When a friend is accused of causing a series of murders and robberies, 2 girls come together to find the culprit.” We decided it would be better to go with the first pitch. It’s very interesting and we have the resources.
