Friday 19th March 2021 L/O: To effectively develop an idea for a disaster movie.   Genre Conventions Death on a major scale Main character often being a Father figure Invasion/Infection are popular topics Lots of special effects in trailers Lots of fiery explosions Flashing/fast cut scenes Fast paced My film: Celcius Due to severe climate change, the earths core has grew dangerously hot causing the crust around it to weaken and some of the contents to burst. Molten metals and rock from the core have surfaced to earth, causing death on a large scale across the globe, excluding northern and southern countries closer to the poles.

LCA Lesson 10

Friday 12th March LCA Lesson 10 Independence Day: Resurgence/The Silence/War Of The Worlds 1. The main characters tend to be Male 2. All of my chosen films have part(s) in them where they require their families action of safety 3. Independence Day's disaster is, to put it straight, about the alien abduction and capture of earth. The silence is about a species of bat-like human-eating creatures that plague earth, and sense anything that makes sound. War of the Worlds is roughly similar to Independance Day, as it includes the invasion of earth from extraterrestrials. 4. All of them had the main character overcome the problem, but lost several others in the process. 5. Independence Day involves space travel to the main objective of eliminating the invading force, and The Silence involves driving away from the initial source of danger. 6. They all have the 'Close friend sacrifice' involved, where one or more of the main characters is sadly taken away or killed during the proces...

LCA lesson 8

  LCA- L8 Friday 5th March 2021 Positioning can be extremely important in terms of a scene with multiple people. It can display their status and meaning towards another in the scene, and even the current relationship between them. By displaying your actions correctly in a film, viewers can practically read your mind of your next action towards someone etc. In this scene, the MES tells us that, by the props and wallpaper, this is a scene from a film set around 300 years ago. The elegant, old fashioned chairs, tables and candle holders all have a touch of old wealth to them, and makes it look like this place could be involved with royalty. The guards around the main character can also tell us this man is important- he needs a great level of security and is very recognised. The hair, costume and makeup to the main character also can build his on stage appearance and personality, his looks portraying the man he is and what he does.

LCA 7

  Monday 22nd February 2021 LCA Lesson 7 1. The music in a horror styled film would be rather dissonant, eerie tones and very sharp and short music. 2. The soundtrack to an action movie would be something rather adrenaline pumping, that is upbeat and goes with stunts and CGI 3. The music to a thriller would be somewhat the same, being very wow-ing and would suit very fast paced events 4. A comedy film can be a mixture of rather normal music. It depends on what type of comedy it is, like a modern film would consist of most likely quite normal cut-scene music, such as maybe some sort of ambient or Jazz music. 5. A science fiction film would have mysterious sounding music along with some normal, too. Science fiction may consist of a mixture of cut scene music, and strange music to convey the sense of mysteriousness. Mission Impossible Fallout: 1. In the specific scene at the start where there is a gunfight for plutonium, yes there is music. 2. The music being the iconic Mission Imposs...
