ANALYSING POSTERS

Image
The light behind the main character Rick Deckard could suggest they are outer space and the light is the sun. But, it could be to show him as a godly figure as he is the hero in the film. By have the women below him and with less area could evoke that she is less important as well as showing him as a dominate figure. In addition, he is holding sc-fi gun which could apply that the movie is an action movie. You can also tell from there face expression that it is an action movie as they look serious. moreover, you can tell that it is a scfi movie as from the bottom of the poster there is a flying car. You can also tell from the font that they were trying to make it look futurist.  From the dark colour you can infer that the movie mostly going to be about negativity and give and a bad mood.

LR tasks for teacher

WWW: The work on your blog is solid and you’re pretty much up-to-date. There’s been a lot of work already so it is important to be keeping up with it.

Video feedback

·          3 minute rough cut status: rough cut delivered on time (visuals) – audio still to be added. ·          Comments on current filming: a lot of the editing is very, very good – really nice pace to the scene when the victim is bundled into the car. The one issue that may hold you back slightly is focus – particularly the longer dialogue shot of your character on the floor looking up. If this was a couple of seconds I wouldn’t be too worried but it’s actually quite an extensive shot. You could either re-shoot or re-edit and include more shots from other angles to hide the focus issue on the top-down shot. ·          The in-car shots just felt a bit weird – shooting over the shoulder by the door seems a strange choice when you have the option of shooting over the other should out the middle of the windscreen. Similarly, the camerawork is a bit too shaky when filming the dashboard. Look over these again to add a bit of stability and focus to this scene. ·          The main is
