Video Creation: Storyboarding
Slides on video creation (advertisement) covering storyboarding. Included in the slides is the production flow, camera angles, camera movement and types of shots.
Shots and camera movements
This document defines and describes various shots and camera movements used in filmmaking. It discusses close-up shots that focus on details and magnify objects, extreme close-ups that show even smaller elements, and medium shots that capture figures from the knees up. It also outlines wide shots that show some of the setting, long shots that approximate life-size scale, and extreme long shots that establish exterior landscapes from far away. Additionally, it defines point-of-view shots, two shots, vertical shots, over the shoulder shots, and zoom lenses that change magnification without moving. Rounds out descriptions of high and low camera angles, tilts, pans, tracking shots, dolly shots, and crane shots.
Final Assignment
The document describes various film camera shots and angles used in storytelling, including their purposes and effects. It discusses wide establishing shots as well as different mid-shots and close-ups to convey emotions or focus attention. Shot sequencing techniques like intercutting, cutaways, and reverse angles are also covered to link scenes and provide different perspectives. Proper framing, depth, point of view, and visual effects are emphasized to immerse the audience in the story.
Continuity editing
Continuity editing refers to techniques used to create a sense of spatial and temporal coherence in films. There are two main categories - temporal continuity, which maintains a logical flow of time, and spatial continuity, which provides a clear physical narrative space. Specific techniques like match cuts, establishing shots, and eye line matches help preserve continuity and prevent disorienting the viewer. Ellipses, fades, and flashbacks can be used to convey temporal discontinuities like the passage of time.
Conventions of the script's music video
The video uses various cinematography techniques like lighting, camera angles, and editing. Lighting includes black and white, color, and sepia tones. Camera shots include long shots, medium shots, close ups, and low angles. Editing combines all the scenes and shots together to tell a story. The target audience is fans of The Script who enjoy their style of music.
Music video analysis seraphim
The document analyzes the cinematography techniques used in the music video for "Seraphim" by Simian Mobile Disco. It notes the video's use of inward and outward zooms on close-ups and medium shots. Sweeping shots are also used to reveal objects or people. These editing techniques reveal details gradually and create a sense of surprise. The document discusses replicating these techniques in its own music video through extreme close-ups that zoom out to reveal context. Fast cuts of an unfolding bed sheet matching the music's tones are also praised, as are shots of a light turning on and off that could be easily recreated.
Session 10 the art of film editing: Film Appreciation Course
The document discusses the history and techniques of film editing. It describes how early filmmakers like Edwin Porter began inserting shots within continuous footage. Directors like Eisenstein and Pudovkin further developed montage to convey meaning through juxtaposition of unrelated images. The document outlines various editing techniques used to manipulate time, establish rhythm and pace, and create audio-visual and psychological relationships for the audience through methods like contrast, parallelism, symbolism, and simultaneity.

05 3156
The document discusses several concepts related to filmmaking including mise-en-scene, framing, movement, editing, and the use of long takes. It provides analysis points for systematically analyzing mise-en-scene including dominant visual elements, lighting, shot types, color, composition, character placement, and staging. It also discusses considerations for analyzing settings, movement techniques like camera movement, and the use of long continuous shots vs editing.
Editing techniques
Continuity editing combines related shots into a coherent sequence focused on the story. An eyeline match shows what a character is looking at, such as a fight scene from Star Wars. The 180 and 30 degree rules help audiences follow characters by keeping camera angles consistent. Ellipses omit unnecessary time to maintain narrative flow without long takes. Diegetic sounds are those the characters can hear, like dialogue or background noise. Matching actions between shots portrays continuous events rather than jumps.

Analysing the hot fuzz intro
1) The opening titles of Hot Fuzz use changing sound effects to show the evolution of the police force from air raid sirens to modern police sirens, indicating the film is set in present day.
2) The introduction focuses on Constable Nicholas Angel, showing him through a montage sequence that establishes his importance, competence, and intensity as a police officer through shots that keep him centered.
3) Throughout the montage, Angel's voiceover describes his training and experience in various police procedures in a way that presents him as exceptionally skilled and driven compared to other officers. This establishes him as the hero and main focus of the film.
Ict speaking task with picture
The picture shows a scenic landscape. It has trees, mountains and a river in the background. The overall scenery looks very peaceful and natural.
The day after (1983)
Well, I can’t say that this is my favourite film. It would be just the wrong word. This is the film, that impressed me. This is the film, that shocked me. This is the film, that covers my body with goosebumps every time when I hear about it. This is the only film that really scares me…
It is about consequences after a Nuclear Attack or, honesty speaking, after a play between two persons in which everyone is a looser. Especially simple people, who suffers mostly.
Critics tended to claim the film was too tame, but still, being directed by Nicholas Meyer, it received twelve Emmy nominations and won two Emmy awards for an Outstanding Film Sound Editing and for an Outstanding Achievement In Special Visual Effects.
But my task was not to write about the whole film ( what I wish I could), but to write about my favourite scene in it ( and again, I would like to replace the word favourite to the most impressive one). Why does my “favourite” scene end on 3.27? Because everything what is happening after is too cruel even for non-sensitive people like me.
First of all, I must point out again that I don’t like it. I am impressed by it. Why? It shows us peoples reaction to a disaster! It shows us the end of their world and how they are trying to survive. But do they have a chance? Most of them definitely not! And the audience see it and wholly understands… how terrifying is that? So, this piece shows the naturalness of emotions.
My second reason is cleanliness of the shots. They are very straight and senseful. The picture explains what it has to, but avoids too much drama. Yes, it is very dramatic scene, but everywhere have to be a measure. People are still hoping and I see it, I understand it, I believe it and I am worry about it.
My third point is talking about a film structure, which includes several things like: great use of the sound, camera, different angles, colours and how genius everything is put together! Each movement, gesture, posture, appearances, spatial behaviour… everything what is happening on the screen puts and keeps you under a pressure.
But I should tell more about my last point, because, obviously, there is what to pay attention for. Firstly, the great sound work that really adds even more tension to this scene.
So what can I say about camera work in this scene? It’s spectacular! I identified a lot of different methods of what I had learned and I want to tell about several of them.
Types of Editing
The document discusses different types of film editing techniques. It describes editing as the process of selecting and joining shots together to create a finished film. A skilled film editor must be able to tell a story through editing and guide the film through post-production. Editing techniques discussed include continuity editing to smoothly flow scenes together, the 180 degree rule for camera placement, match on action cuts, and shot-reverse-shot editing for conversations. Other techniques covered are elliptical, graphic, parallel, and montage editing. Common transitions between shots like cuts, fades, dissolves, wipes, and irises are also explained.

Mise-en-scène in the opening scene of Se7en shows the differences in Morgan Freeman and Brad Pitt's characters through their costumes. Freeman's neat suit implies he is professional while Pitt's open jacket hints at his youth. Freeman's tidy apartment further reflects his possible OCD. The unsettling soundtrack and a diegetic metronome in Freeman's bedroom foreshadow the film's disturbing content and explore his character's potential OCD. Through editing, camera angles, and quick scene transitions, the opening establishes the professional and urgent nature of solving these horrific crimes.

However, some characters may dress oddly to imply that events are happening in the character's mind. Locations are also usually normal to seem realistic, though some can portray settings in a stereotypical way. The narratives vary between films but often involve a main character plagued by surreal events that challenge what is real.

It defines the mnemonic "FARTS SS CC" which stands for the main elements - the family as central characters, the audience/viewers being targeted, realism through exaggeration and empathy, typical episode timings and setting, use of stereotypes, a simple narrative structure, a regular cast of characters plus outside characters, and canned laughter.

Representation

While some rely on stereotypes, the best sitcoms subvert expectations. Family life is often central, using stereotypes of relationships for comedy. Representations highlight common behaviors and flaws that audiences recognize in themselves and others. Specifically, men are often shown as inadequate compared to film ideals, and eccentric characters are popular tropes. The task asks the reader to analyze representations of gender, family and social groups in various sitcom episodes.

Ratings data is collected by BARB to determine viewer demographics and profiles for each show. Poor ratings can lead to shows being cancelled.
