Unraveling Secrets Through Subtle Cinematography

Film Analysis Essay
So, I've decided to start watching films by themes every week. Forcing myself not only to put a break to the insane amount of TV shows I have
been watching (I'm back on the TV binge again, I don't know how it happens, but I always go back to it) but to also analyse patterns within the film
industry. First week. Gyllenhaal week, Jake Gyllenhaal to be precise. He has always had really intriguing choices/ or been given interesting
characters, trying not to be pinpointed by a single form of filmmaking. But, there are always patterns, and I can't remember during this week any film
that he didn't have any love interest. Which comes to questions, that he always is an object of romantic desire, even when he is playing a creepy man

the references to spiders as women come from dreamlike states. the tram lines that surround the city resembling webs in the sky, the Louise bourgeois
Maman spider–like controlling the city. the film has many interpretations and many different subjects being dealt with, it being the idea of
individual and maybe the lack of it in this society or the fear of the understanding of the female. it is open for interpretation. although I might say
that the spiders aren't referenced in the book. so... there's that. it has a yellow tone, a desaturation that can characterise the lack of individuality of
the being in a society like that. here's the rundown of films I watched that week, and a bit of a review to them lol not really. (some were
rewatched) (give a star system) Donnie Darko (overrated tbh) Zodiac ( a true icon ) Demolition ( can't truly remember what happened there, but
Naomi watts was in it, I think?) Jarhead (incredibly fascinating, plus the fact that the editing god, Walter Murch edited this film and in the film, they
were watching apocalypse now, another film edited by him, was true meta moment The day after tomorrow ( classic !!! this film was 2012 before 2012
was 2012 ) Love and other drugs ( that was strange ) Enemy ( !!! AAAAAAAAAAAA

Film Synthesis Essay
Vanessa R. Schwartz, Gyan Prakash, and Camilo D. Trumper are authors who wrote books on urban globalization in different cities around the world.
All three historians used cinema and film as part of their evidence in support of their different arguments. Schwartz, Prakash, and Trumper, however,
agree that filmmakers created realities, either as entertainment, political messages, or reflections of their city. For Schwartz, Prakash, and Trumper,film
reveals intimate details about cities during the time filmmakers created the films. Often filmmakers communicated their impressions, experiences, and
ideas about the city through film and aspects of film production. These created realities were the result of different cultures within a city dealing...show

For Schwartz, nineteenth century Paris became a city filled with distractions and entertainment built for the new leisurely inclined populace. Film
logically followed the trends already put in place.
Gyan Prakash wrote Mumbai Fables originally in 2011, which he then developed more, into several editions in the years after. Mumbai Fables portrays
early–twentieth century Bombay and Mumbai as cities with facades or at least cities that have been imprinted with an invented history by writers,
architects, politicians, and filmmakers. Prakash states that
My goal is not to strip fact from fiction, not to oppose the "real" to the myth, but to reveal the historical circumstances portrayed and hidden by the
stories and images produced in the past and the present. I am interested in uncovering the back–stories of Mumbai's history because they reveal its
experience as a modern city, as a society built from

Fatima Hawkins Professor Amber Koeckritz CST 110 7 April 2016 Interpersonal Communication Film Analysis While any relationship can be difficult,
romantic ones seem to be the most complicated. Interpersonal communication can be defined in many ways but is usually described as communication
among those in a close relationship (Alberts 189). The Break Up is a perfect movie that will show examples of the definitions used. Individuals initiate
relationships with those they see as attractive, while physical appearance is critical in forming a relationship so is a mental and the ability to
communicate effectively. When initiating a potential romantic relationship flirting comes in many forms. Ambiguous flirting isn't overt or obvious

She was attracted to his sense of humor and his assertiveness. The last primary force would be similarity meaning a degree to which people have the
same values, interests, and background (Alberts 192). Think about a friend or spouse and their personalities, beliefs, and interests and think how
much in common each have with one another. A lack of communication between two people that occurs for a long period of time will most likely
result in a huge confrontation or a complete separation of the relationship. Developing effective communication is essential to maintaining a healthy
relationship (Alberts 202). Feeling like one person does more than the other can lead to unnecessary arguments if one feels the other isn't portraying
active participation in the relationship enhancement. Another theory that comes to mind is Equity theory which argues that rather than focusing
purely on rewards and costs, people are more interested in achieving fairness (Alberts 194). This theory helps explain that both people who are
under benefitted and those who are over benefitted may feel dissatisfied with their relationship (Alberts 195). To better explain under benefitted, an
example would be when Brooke felt as though she was being taken granted when she screamed, "I worked hard all day cleaning, then cooking the
meal and worked all day long, it would be nice if you said thank you and helped me with the dishes."

Cinematography In The Great Gatsby
. The 2013 film is full of excess, there is excess of sounds, color and visual effects. The era, in which the film, and the novel take place, is the era of
excess, the characters live excessive lives, thus the cinematography helps create a feeling of excess that runs through the film. The 1970s was the age
of the zoom lense in cinema. In Clyton and Coppola's version, the scene where Gatsby and Daisy meet for the first time, there is a close up on their
facial expressions.This helps the audience to understand the emotion that both characets are feeling and alsp it creates an intimacy between the two. In
contrast, the 2013 version there are wider shots of characters positionnig which allows the audience to see the body language. Furthermore,

Through writing my pitch, I've learnt several things about the film industry. I've realised that a pitch is the very first thing we need to do before
proceeding to any preproduction or production tasks and that the purpose of a pitch is to attract development finance to pay for the production of the
film. Therefore, a pitch should be marketable and interesting. As pitching is commonly known as "selling the film", there are several things I need to
consider in my pitch so that it can attract the investors and they would green–light the project. Some of them include the names of actors and actresses
to create star power, a brief plot synopsis, budgeting values, genre and the target audience. I've also included a similar film to give a...show more

The strapline "there's more you need to know" creates a sense of mysterious and curiosity in the readers. The strapline is coloured in black colour
and black signifies mysteriousness and seriousness. For the title, I've used the font 'Minion Pro' as it is more unisex yet not so common so that it
would be more appealing to older audience unlike the font 'Curlz MT' used in many girly or teen magazines.
Posters play a very important role in the film industry. Through the production work, which required me to design and create at least three posters
featuring my film, I've learned that the posters are one of the things needed to make a film successful. This is because they promote the film before it
is released and also when the film is shown in cinemas. Most importantly, a film needs a good promotion in order to be successful. There are three
types of posters: lobby cards, teaser posters and character posters. Lobby cards are like posters but they are smaller and collectible. However, they are
soon replaced by teaser posters and character posters. A teaser poster is an early promotional movie poster, containing only a basic image or design
without revealing too much information such as the plot, theme, and characters. They are often used to create sense of suspense and hype in the
audience. In contrast, the character poster features an individual character from the film and usually it contains the name of the actor/actress,

Citizen Kane: Film Analysis Essay
Since the beginning of the Industrial Age, Americans have idealized the journey towards economic success. One thing people do not realize,
however, is that that journey is not the same for every individual. For Charles Foster Kane (Orson Welles), the main character of Citizen Kane,
directed by Orson Welles, the path towards riches and a fulfilled life is being well liked. He serves to please others. He strives for that attention. This
view cost him his happiness in the end. In this man's rise and fall through prosperity, Welles shows the futility of striving solely for likeability.
The movie starts out in Kane's childhood home, before his life changed forever. His family is visited by a rich bank owner named Jerry Thompson
(William...show more content...
He does not care to bring honesty to the people, as he insists when he first comes into owning the newspaper. He wants to control people, to gain
massive influence.
This wish for control is also seen in his love life. His first wife is Emily Monroe Norton (Ruth Warrick), the niece of the current President of the
United States. This connection itself gives Kane more power, even an opportunity to become governor. One can even say that is only reason he
marries her: for influence, not love. When Emily starts to realize this, their marriage continually deteriorates until they are hardly speaking at all.
Kane's second love interest is Susan Alexander (Dorothy Comingore). The first time they met, he proceeds to control her. He insists that she sing
professionally, even when she argues against it. Their relationship is uncovered, causing Emily to get a divorce. Kane marries Susan soon after.
However, it is the same cycle over again. He tries to control everything, she gets annoyed, the marriage deteriorates. After he builds Xanadu, the
palace, she is so fed up that she leaves him as well. His desperation for attention and control costs him a family.
Citizen Kane shows why one should not wish for attention and influence alone. If one tries to take full control of their life, it will go out of control. It
is happiness and being content with life that is important. If that includes backpacking across the world, then that is that. If it includes making a

The Great Gatsby Film Analysis Essay
The 2013 film remake of the classic novel, The Great Gatsby written by F. Scott Fitzgerald is a fantastic example of what happens when Hollywood
creates a successful remake, while also keeping the integrity of the original film and novel.The scene when Myrtle, the mistress of Daisy's husband
meets her tragic death due to Daisy hitting her on accident with a car due to a night of drunken fun. Is one of the most notable scenes within the film
and one of the most famous in both the film and novel. This scene embodies everything the film is trying to portray to the audience, the classic
Hollywood film narrative, using mise–en–scene in an effective manner, the editing of and the soundtrack used to create an effective scene that the
audience could understand and could also be emotionally affected by. The remake created a powerful scene using these film techniques, by piecing
everything together in a way that could be understood by everyone watching the film. While, the film had many scenes that were put together
professionally and extremely well done, this scene stands out the most as it is the most shocking scene in the whole film and the climax of the plot.
The Great Gatsby is the perfect example of the classical Hollywood film narrative, as it is focused on a story about a man who becomes a witness to
many unfolding events. Nick, the main protagonist of the film ends up watching the rise and fall of his neighbor and friend, Gatsby. Gatsby who
happened to be in love with a

Movie Analysis: the Pursuit of Happyness Essays
Based on the real life story of Chris Gardner, the Pursuit of Happyness looks at the crests and troughs in Chris' life on his way to becoming a stock
broker, and eventually as everyone knows, a multi–millionaire. Will Smith played the role of Chris Gardner while Smith's son, Jaden Smith played
Gardner's 7 or 8–year–old son.
At one level, even though the movie is titled The Pursuit of Happyness (deliberately spelt wrong), it is pretty depressing. Yes, the movie is supposed
to focus on the struggles of the main protagonist as he chases what seems like a chimerical dream. However, every time you think that things are
going to get better, they only get even worse for Chris. As Chris and his son move from one slump to another, you begin to...show more content...
To me that scene in the cab summed up the movie – try, try and try again. You have to determine all the moves for yourself and you have to get it
right. That is how one pursues happiness, and Chris' life is a testimony to that.
All this is voiced in one way or other when Chris talks to his son in the movie. In one scene when Chris is playing basketball with his son, he says he
never made it as a basketball player and his son wouldn't make it either. And just immediately after, he tells the kid, "Don't ever let someone tell you,
you can't do something. Not even me." Or at another time he says, "You got a dream, you gotta protect it. People can't do something themselves, they
wanna tell you that you can't do it. You want something? Go get it. Gardner". And that's what Chris does– he gets out there, works himself out and
makes it – really makes it, giving hope to a lot of others like him. Not only does this scene voice that people should focus of the strength of trying
despite their failures but it also depicts the love that parents have for their children can directly impact the children. This scene especially shows that
was parents say and do can have a direct effect on the children. By Chris telling his son to never let anyone tell him he can not do something and that
if he has a dream to go get it. These are strong words that reflect what most parents wish to teach their children. To never

is a university focused on majors involving music. Neiman has been an aspiring musician since he was a kid, always striving to become better no
matter the costs. He starts his musical education at the conservatory in what seems to be a regular jazz band until Terence Fletcher, the jazz instructor
of the highly praised and advanced jazz band selects him Andrew to proceed into his class. Andrew being an admirer of this advanced jazz group,

But before Neiman plays at his first session with Fletcher's jazz ensemble, Andrew is met by Fletcher himself to not worry about what he saw, and
tells him that "You know, Charlie Parker became "Bird" because Jones threw a cymbal at his head." This sole quote has the basis of the plot and
motivation of the antagonist who is Fletcher, seen in the eyes of Neiman. As Neiman plays the piece "Whiplash," Neiman is baffled on how Fletcher
treats him on what seems to him minor inconsistencies like the tempo on being accurate, so Fletcher throws a chair at Neiman as he's playing, which is
reminiscent of what

Whiplash Film Analysis
Damien Chazelle's critically acclaimed American drama film Whiplash (2014), presents a thought–provoking and confronting depiction of volatile and
manipulative relationships, in which Andrew Niemen, a young ambitious jazz drummer is pushed to the brink of his ability and sanity by his ruthless
teacher, Terence Fletcher. Nieman's passion to achieve perfection quickly spirals into an obsession. Whiplash proving highly popular with audiences
utilizes cinematography to explore the central themes, the battle between being a good person and being remembered and the effects of a volatile and
manipulative student–teacher relationship. Whiplash utilizes conventions and ideas from the drama genre to communicate these central themes and film

However, now Neiman's gradual spiral into an obsession for greatness has driven him to breaking point. The car crash scene is the turning point in
Nieman's character. His pursuit of perfection and greatness has blinded him. At this point Neiman has lost his old self completely, his dialogue is
arrogant and hostile, he no longer cares for his band members or anything apart from greatness. His gradual change of behaviour is evident through
his dialogue 1:03:28 when Nieman is on the telephone to one of his band members, he starts cursing and using profane language, similarly to Fletcher.
Drumming has become his life, he is no longer concentrated on being a good person instead he is focused on being remembered, as demonstrated after
the car accident, Nieman is determined to succeed and please Fletcher, thus continuing to play. As he plays every excruciating beat, his blood drips onto
the drum set; representing the pain that he is willing to go to achieve success. Neiman's madness is stopped by Fletcher's two words: "You're done".
Along with lighting and dialogue, the volatile and manipulative relationship between Fletcher and Nieman is explored through Chazelles use of
cinematography.
Music, editing, and camera angles are used by Chazelle to explore the effects of a volatile and manipulative student–teacher relationship. The
cinematography and music used throughout the scene intensify the volatile relationship

Analysis Of The Movie ' The Help ' Essay
The film "The Help" (2011), is a story based on the daily lives of prominent white women and the relationships with their African–American
housemaids in Jackson, Mississippi, during the 1960s Civil Rights movement in America. A well–to–do white woman and central character in this film,
Eugenia "Skeeter" Phelan, aspires to be a journalist and decides to write and publish an exposГ© of the stories of the housemaids in Jackson to
achieve this goal, however, only two maids, Aibileen Clark and Minny Jackson are willing to discuss their experiences with her. The other maid's in
Jackson resist telling Skeeter their stories, fearing the punishments they would endure if the authorities were to find out. In spite of this, after the
malicious arrest of one of their befriended maids, all of the maids begin to share their experiences, which consist of racial hostility and being treated as
intrinsically subservient to white people. The story Skeeter publishes entitled The Help, creates a disturbance among the white families in Jackson, by
exposing the racism the maids are faced with, forcing the white families to reflect upon how they have treated their maids. The storyline represented in
The Help exhibits examples of the primordial approach to race and ethnicity, as well as numerous sociological concepts including segregation,
internalized oppression, and white privilege, which will be exemplified in this paper in order to uncover the race relations evident within this film.

Critical Analysis: The Great Gatsby Film
The classic American novel, The Great Gatsby, presents a major theme of passing time. Losing Daisy meant losing Gatsby's entire world, which he
only kept alive through his hope of repeating the past. Daisy is a symbol of everything he values and therefore became the entity of his dream: his
dream of spending the rest of his life with Daisy, the woman he loves undeniably. But Gatsby doesn't realize his dream is unattainable because
unfortunately, he cannot go back in time or recreate the past. Gatsby is stuck in the past, longing for the relationship between him and Daisy, and can't
accept the future, resulting in his own death. This is depicted in...show more content...
Their hands are so close, but never actually touch or come intact with each other because the two are metaphorically so far away from each other in
that their relationship only exists in the past, and not in the future. A few scenes later, Gatsby and Daisy are shown kissing through a pond with an
unstable reflection. The water is agitated and quivering endlessly as opposed to still and calm. The murky and unsteady water depicts a sense of
"oldness" in Daisy and Gatsby's relationship. Because the shot is a reflection, it's as if the moment is false or an imitation, as if they are "reflecting"
on a memory in the past. The framing of these scenes denote Gatsby's stark refusal to accept what he cannot control: the passage of time.
A prominent color in the movie and novel of The Great Gatsby is green. It is the color that represents Gatsby's hope. For example, the green light
across the bay that Gatsby associates Daisy's house with is a symbol of his destiny with her. Also, Gatsby gives Daisy a ring with a green jewel but
because he is her past and she is married now, she tells Gatsby to keep it. As the movie progresses and Daisy and Gatsby spend more and more time
together, green became more and more visible. The most prominent scenes of green were a series of cuts. Daisy and Gatsby sitting between multiple
trees cuts to a bird's eye view of the pair running through a forest, which then cuts

Throughout "The Great Gatsby" Jay Gatsby makes it his goal to achieve Daisy's love for him as she once had. While both the novel and the film
clearly show Gatsby's great motivation to obtain Daisy's love, in the film, Luhrmann exaggerates Fitzgerald's reasoning for why Daisy decides to
choose Tom over Gatsby. Luhrmann does this through the use of imagery and the addition of new events. Luhrmann is able to exaggerate Daisy's
reasoning for why she chooses Tom over Gatsby by being able to implement visual imagery of the events that happened in the book. This meant
that the developer of the movie would be able to set up scenes that corresponded with the novel but being that it was a film, there could be more
added to it that could not be used in the book such as the use of nonverbal communication. As a result this creates a more villainous characterization
of Gatsby in the film opposed to in the book whereas Tom carries that characterization. One of the most significant scenes in the film to support the
idea that Luhrmann creates greater reasoning for Daisy to stay with Tom was simply left out of the book. In the film this scene serves as a major
turning point or even the climax of the movie and in terms of Gatsby and Daisy's relationship. This scene takes place when Gatsby, Daisy, and Tom
are at the Plaza Hotel with Nick and Jordan. Gatsby tells Tom that he and Daisy are in love. Gatsby continues to go on by saying that she never loved
Tom. It is in this scene that Gatsby

Australian films, are well known for their outback landscapes, unique Australian animals, indigenous heritage and the unmissable quirky characters But
are these stereotypes portrayed in Australian movies politically and culturally correct? Is Australia really only about a bunch of Bogan's kicking their
feet around in the red sand, wrestling crocodiles and going walk about with a few stereotyped aboriginals?
Dear selection panel I am here today because you asked for recommendations on what Australian films should be shown in the Australianfilm festival
held in late 2016. There are obviously the well–known Australian movies films such as 'Crocodile Dundee' the 1986 Paul Hogan film or 'Australia' the
Hugh Jackman film from 2002, two classic and famous Australian films and are all very similar because of their landscapes and characters. Ladies
and Gentlemen of the selection panel, I'm sure you've all seen at least one or 2 of these iconic Australian films, if not all. I am also sure you will

bunch of people tear up, you literally just need to get any random off the street put a dog in the movie and make it die at the end. Seems pretty
simple doesn't it. But making the audience cry isn't everything; you need to make the people watching the film feel like actually apart of the society
or relationship. I believe red dog is not only very accurate towards a local Australian society but it makes you feel like you're are actual apart of the

When Wall–E broke the first display system, it was almost like he woke the passenger up, because that was when she finally realized the true beauty
of everything surrounding her. The display system serves as an oppressor of existential thought and is symbolic of the societal ignorance. The ship
symbolizes the ignorance of humans because it allows everything to be done for them. The passengers can get everything with the push of a button.
Wall–E realizes how ignorant people have become because when he boards the ship he sees they have reached a state where all people do is eat
while keeping their eyes glued to a display screen. He realizes that all the ship is really doing is dictating peoples' lives. Auto constantly has the
protocol A113 pop up which is symbolic of destroying hope and new beginnings. The repetitive protocol symbolically shows the boring lives people
live on the ship. The passengers of the ship live with no desire to have purpose, and they live an inauthentic life that is mapped out for them by the
BnL corporation. Wall–E's actions end up inspiring the passengers (especially the captain) to look for something different and break away from blindly
accepting what everyone else is accepting. The lighters that Wall–E collects can be seen as a symbol of the love that is kindling between him

The Movie Fences Film Analysis
Fences is a drama film directed, starring and produced by Denzel Washington, along with Academy Award Winner Viola Davis and adapted from the
play Fences by August Wilson. The movie Fences focuses with elements of distrust and change among a working–class African–American father Troy
Maxson, who makes his living as a garbage collector during the 1950s in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Maxson's dream was to become a professional
baseball player, but he was considered too old when the league began recruiting black athletes. Sullen after hearing the truth, Troy creates more
problems in his family when he dismisses his son Cory's chance to play professional football. The director's perception of African American experience
during the time period is...show more content...
The overall movie is good, but it doesn't provide the same aesthetic quality that the playwright does, but it does have strong casting and important
themes. Denzel Washington, who plays Troy Maxson, delivers an unforgettable performance to the audience, leaving no emotion untouched. Like
many of Washington's movies, he has the mysterious gift of absorbing his fictional character from the script and making viewers believe his
character is palpable. His delivery of lines are powerful thus forcing me to recollect events that revealed the same emotions he felt in a past time,
"See? I'm gonna build me a fence around what belongs to me. And then I want you to stay on the other side. See? You stay over there until you're
ready for me," his expression of anger and sadness is something familiar to my own. (Wilson 108). I had experienced a death in my own family,
with the aid of Washington's fervent delivery of his lines, I was able to remember the same unpleasant moments similar to the characters. Also, Viola
Davis who plays Rose Maxson in the movie, reminds me of my own mother. The vivacity in her acting allows to indirectly provide characteristics for
Rose, she was strong, independent, selfless and practical. Rose Maxson was a mother, that would do anything for her family even give up the dreams
she wanted most She demonstrated this by saying, "I took all my feelings, my wants and needs,

Cinematography Essay examples
Today, the movie industry has become a huge moneymaker in the entertainment business. You cannot turn on the television without seeing
advertisements for the next big blockbuster film. While most of the films these days entertain with amazing special effects or raunchy comedy, there
are still films that thrive because of great acting, directing, and editing. Three films that I believe would be great examples of the way these aspects
can cause a film to excel are ?Any Given Sunday?, ?The Cell?, and ?Almost Famous?. ?Any Given Sunday? shows how, by using editing, a movie can
portray an intense situation realistically. In ?The Cell?, color is used to differentiate between how we see things in reality and how...show more content...
Panning shots of cheering fans and screaming coaches along with occasional shots of the game being broadcast on a television with commentators
giving their take on the action send the viewer back to the reality that they are only watching the action and not participating in it. While watching this
movie you truly feel like you are in the game.
?The Cell?, instead of focusing on accurately portraying reality, takes you to the dream world. Catherine Deane, played by Jennifer Lopez, is a
child psychologist involved in an experimental project that allows her to travel inside the mind of coma victims to try to draw them away from
their fears and thus out of their coma. This movie portrays the journey inside the mind much like you would depict a dream. When Deane is inside
a young child, whose main concern seems to be a fear of the ?boogie man?, the world she enters is a beautiful desert scene where the sky is bright
blue with puffy white clouds. She is always dressed in bright white dresses and seems to glow. This depicts that she has earned the child?s trust. All
color is brighter in this dreamlike world. Even though these experiments had not been successful bringing the child out of the coma, Dean was able
to learn a lot about the child. This caused a couple of detectives to approach her about entering the mind of a serial killer who had slipped into a coma
with the goal of discovering the location of his most recent captive.

Film Analysis
There is always a time and place for everything, no matter where we are in this world. Sometimes, it takes the smallest and the largest of things to
really find yourself in this vast society. One of those things is filming, otherwise known as film in general. Throughout the world, there are people
who direct films to often give a story that captivates us. In these films, we not only see what the Director sees in his eyes, but we also see life in its
finest detail. Capturing the life that moves around us is an art and when we fully take the advantage of remembering our past, not only will we be
able to encounter the days of our past, but we will be able to look towards the future as well.

The study of sociology has to do with the society as a whole, while the study of psychology has to do with the human behavior. In film, we look at the
psychological reading of characters. In many films where the setting takes place in a hospital or a dark house, we usually see characters with abnormal
features that often frighten people. Edward Scissor–Hands is a good example. Although the story of Scissor–Hands was well written and well
established, the concept of the character left a horrifying remark. In many cases, the way a character is developed often leads to a specific genre
being picked. The way we look into the human behavior of a character can differ from each person. Sometimes you will have one person view the
characters development on how they changed, while another will simply look at how the character is portrayed throughout the film. Either way, both
methods are correct in looking into the human behavior of one specific character. Using this type of analysis can be an advantage as in international
cinema, we are privy to experiencing and learning about many different characters that are often introduced
