The film cross-cuts between the protagonist and antagonist to show different viewpoints and build anticipation of their interactions. Music also builds tension by getting louder before action scenes.

Analyse the ways Spielberg uses the camera to create meaning in the film 'Jaws'
Spielberg uses various camera techniques and shots to create meaning and tension in Jaws. He establishes the happy beach scene with bright colors and relaxed people, but also includes minor ominous details. As the boy swims alone, long shots make him appear vulnerable. Shallow depth of field focuses on Brody's worried expressions as he scans the sea. Fast editing and over-the-shoulder shots intensify the tension as Brody searches. A conversation about shark attacks contrasts with children playing in the background. The discovery of the remains of the boy are symbolized by his torn up lilo surrounded by blood in the water.
Effective trailers
Effective trailers for different genres should include certain elements. For rom-coms, the trailer should show relationships developing, a problem arising, and attractive stars. Horror trailers work best with dark lighting, colors, and an unknown evil threat. Action trailers need bright colors, weapons, vehicles, fighting and explosions. Regardless of genre, sound is important to set the mood and emphasize movements on screen.
Photo Design-Light and Color-Chapter 4
Chiaroscuro refers to the use of strong contrasts between light and dark to create a three-dimensional effect.

Codes and conventions
The document outlines some common codes and conventions of four film genres: horror, romantic comedies, action, and drama. Horror films typically feature scary music, isolated settings, "screaming", and antagonists that are often pale males. Romantic comedies usually involve a "boy meets girl" plot, are often from a female viewpoint, and feature props like wedding items. Action movies contain explosions, fights, vehicles chases and gadgets. Dramas can blend with other genres and portray realistic situations and character journeys.
2 am - Analysis
The document analyzes scenes from a short film called "2AM" through the lenses of cinematography, sound, editing, mise-en-scene, messages, and values. It summarizes the techniques used in two key scenes: 1) A young boy walking alone at night shown through close-ups of his emotions and reactions, creating a sense of loneliness. 2) The boy thinks he is safe but a "dancing man" reappears, shown through a close-up creating a jump scare. Overall, the analysis shows how technical elements come together to portray the boy's vulnerability and build tension without dialogue.
Comedy
Much Ado About Nothing is considered a dark comedy by Shakespeare's standards because while it focuses on the theme of love like his other comedies, this play also incorporates more malevolent characters who actively work to undermine the happiness found in love. Specifically, Don John serves as the anti-comic force who opposes and threatens the love between Beatrice and Benedick. However, the play does not become dominated by its darker elements due to the faster pacing of those scenes and the more frequent lighter, visual scenes involving frivolous behavior and celebrations of love that provide balance.

Lighting design
This document discusses the lighting design plan for the play "Bus Stop". The lighting design aims to establish the mood, style, time and place through a mixture of soft and sharp lighting. Soft lighting will be used for slower scenes, while sharp lighting will grab attention during scenes of action. A realistic lighting style using natural colors is chosen over a nonrealistic style to fit the play's real-life situations. Visibility will be maintained through lights above and in the house. Angles of light will define shapes and forms in three dimensions. Spotlights will focus on performers and dimmer lights will define character areas.

Tv drama analysis pretty little liars
The opening scene of the TV drama Pretty Little Liars establishes conventional elements. It begins at night in the small town of Rosewood, Pennsylvania, introducing the main characters, a group of teenage girls, through dim lighting and their fearful facial expressions. Fast-paced editing and an eerie musical score build tension. While the narrative focuses on the disappearance of one of the girls, Allison, the representations reinforce the dominant teen drama genre without obvious social commentary. The target audience appears to be teenage and young adult women.

The document discusses the conventions of thriller movies and how the opening sequence of a project adheres to or challenges these conventions. It outlines conventions like a crime occurring due to an antagonist, clues for the protagonist to follow, risk to life, and an action-packed narrative. The summary analyzes how the opening sequence includes a baby kidnapping, close-ups of the distraught mother's reaction, and slow editing to build tension. While containing these thriller elements, it challenges conventions by having a female protagonist and representing women and parents in countertypical ways.
Se7en detailed analysis
The sequence from the film Se7en uses dull, provocative imagery and flashing lights to unsettle the audience. Scenes of hands performing odd actions imply an unusual central character is making something sinister. Intercut images are not in chronological order and reference both sexually and a crossed out child's face, confusing viewers. The unsettling soundtrack matches the increasing intensity of the hands' actions, building an ominous tone through its beat and notes.

The short film is set in both Rome and war-torn Bosnia. In Rome, the beautiful architecture and elegant, relaxed atmosphere are established through colorful costumes, props, and lighting. However, in Bosnia, the crumbling buildings, broken cars, and gloomy black-and-white cinematography create a dark, depressing atmosphere of poverty and war. The film contrasts the tranquil beauty of Rome with the terrifying reality of life in Bosnia during the war to highlight the dramatic differences between peace and conflict.

The document discusses conventions of thriller genre and analyzes the opening sequence of a film against these conventions. It summarizes that the sequence features a mother discovering her baby has been kidnapped through a baby monitor, portraying women and parents. Though it follows some conventions like close-ups showing emotion, it challenges others by having a female protagonist instead of male. The pacing and music build tension as the kidnapping occurs.
Short film analysis - we were once a fairytale
The short film "We Were Once a Fairytale" centers around a rapper played by Kanye West who gets drunk and lets his fame go to his head. While appearing shallow, the character has deeper emotions motivating his behavior, symbolizing the loneliness and dark side of that lifestyle. Through unsteady camerawork, reactions shots, and montage editing, the film shows the character continuously making mistakes as his isolation increases throughout the night.

The opening of Stranger Things uses two contrasting scenes to introduce the narrative. The first scene takes place in a laboratory and features a man being chased by an unknown creature in a thrilling manner. The second more lighthearted scene shows boys playing a board game, softening the atmosphere. Visual elements like lighting and costumes are used conventionally to set the mood in each scene. The target audience seems to be teenagers based on the genres of sci-fi and horror used, as well as references to 1980s culture.
3 analysis'
The document discusses conventions used in the openings of action/adventure and horror movies. For action/adventure films like Now You See Me, editing uses jump cuts to create an intense pace. Props hint at magic and mystery, while low lighting, shadows, and a mysterious protagonist grab audience attention. Horror openings like Insidious and The Conjuring also use low lighting to create fear. Exaggerated diegetic sounds heighten tension, as unsettling music presents sinister characters or impending danger. Mysterious props and gestures further connote dark themes.
