Preparing to Film

-


This week in preparation to film for this project there were a lot of things I had to get in order. First, I had to decide how many actors I wanted in this film, and who I wanted them to be. I decided that I would star in the film, along with my friend Antwon, and would have my best friend Cyd, be a fill-in if Antown could not perform. I picked Antown because he has an awesome BMW that I wanted to feature in the film because it is going to be a Fast and Furious type movie opening. I wanted my film to have something to do with cars and I think Antowns car will be perfect for that. I don't think that I will go all out with costumes. If anything I want to coordinate an all-black dress code because it fits the action aspect of the film. Black is slick and mysterious but also can be classy. The props used will be two iPhones, two cars, a  grey BMW and a white Acura ILX. They both have a sports car type of look, and I think they will look good in the film. I have not decided on a date to film yet, but it will be in the near future. I want to try and shoot at sunset, just because the sunsets in Naples are beautiful and just radiate really beautiful colors in the sky, and I want to be able to incorporate that into my film. I've decided that the opening will not include any dialogue, and I want to just focus on the noise of the cars and I will add some background music and sound effects. Film equipment will most likely just be my iPhone because I do not have access to a high-tech camera.

Flashbacks depict the personal experience of a character by showing a memory of a previous event and they are often used to "resolve an enigma" later appearing in the film.  The camera cuts back and forth between Agent Carter and Steve Rodger (aka Captain America).  You can hear  sad and suspenseful music in the background, which signals something troubling is about to take place. The scene cuts f rom Agent Carter and Captain America having a heartfelt conversation, and then the music and conversation slowly  dies  out and we are cut back to p resent day. The next scene opens to a bird’s eye  view and establishing shot of the city which then cuts to the  precinct . From the  beginning  of this shot, you can tell there i...

The Study of Mise-En-Scene in "Split"

   I chose to comment on the mise-en-scene of the M. Night Shyamalan movie, “Split”.  I chose this film because I never got the chance to view it yet, but by from the preview I could tell that I can write a lot  about the mise-en-scene of it because of how good the trailer was. I also chose this film because Mrs.Henerson's interest of the director and how well produced his other movies are.  Setting: The movie has several settings, but I focused on three main settings. The "Bunker" where Kevin's victims are being kept, the therapists office, and anywhere outside the bunker and office. The bunker/underground setting was beyond detailed oriented and realistic, making the movie all the more interesting and life like. It feels like you are there yourself just because of how everything is placed, and decorated to seem so real. There is a cold and suspenseful vibe anytime the action is taking place in the bunker, and I think the use of an underground mainten...
