Blair Witch - Textual Analysis
The visual code uses a shaky camera perspective to portray a found footage style. The editing is meant to feel amateur and raw, cutting between different camera shots. The sound is mostly diegetic, featuring limited effects and conversations between characters to set an unsettling tone. Overall the documentary style of filming, editing, and sound aims to immerse the audience in a realistic horror story.
Further editing
1) The document discusses editing techniques used in a 2-minute title sequence for a thriller film. Ellipsis and continuity editing were used to omit unnecessary elements and create a continuous flow between shots.
2) Shots were sped up to add urgency and pace, and fades were used between location changes. Black screens with diegetic sounds were inserted to let the audience use their imagination.
3) Match cuts and camera focus techniques were employed to smoothly transition between shots of a van and set up a video camera scene. Thin white titles on black screens were chosen to not distract from the thriller atmosphere.
Comedy films
The document summarizes and compares the opening scenes of three comedy films - The Hangover, Superbad, and Shaun of the Dead. For The Hangover, it notes contrasting shots of a dirty man and clean woman. For Superbad, it describes a phone call shot between a moving car and long shot. For Shaun of the Dead, it explains how quick clips emulate tired people looking like zombies.
Analysis 2
The trailer uses various film techniques to build tension and scare the audience. Low key lighting creates a dark, scary atmosphere. Strange sounds from a baby monitor build unease. Fast editing during panic scenes heightens tension. A rocking horse rocking on its own and a boy's fall, emphasized with repetition, foreshadow disturbing events. Camerawork like close-ups and high angles provide clues while a handheld shot at the end adds confusion. These techniques establish an unsettling tone and intrigue viewers about the horror to come.
MEDIA THRILLER CONVENTIONS
The opening of the film establishes several main characters and locations that will be important to the plot. It does this through various camera shots that follow the characters around different settings, such as a girl's bedroom and an office. However, the introduction of characters and settings is confusing and does not clearly reflect the film's title of "The Cabin In The Woods". While some thriller conventions are used, such as mysterious music and hints of danger, the opening does not fully set up the thriller elements or make it clear who the characters are and their roles in the story. This leaves the audience unsure of what to focus on and without a strong sense of the film being a thriller.
Pitch for thriller opening
The document outlines a pitch for the opening of a psychological thriller film. The plot involves a teenage girl who suffers from vivid dreams that begin to control her reality. The opening scene would show the girl asleep underwater in a bath with flashing images, then waking up shocked. Locations would include a house and park in Highbury. Props would include a bath and plain black dress. Sound effects like footsteps and water would add tension. The film aims to leave audiences questioning what is real. Risks of filming include equipment malfunction near water and unreliable actors or weather affecting outdoor shoots.
Unit 1 individual task pictures to reflect my film noir characteristics
The document provides instructions for taking photographs that reflect characteristics of film noir style. It lists several close-up and long shots that show a female face with shadows, a hand in a car with shadows, a figure walking alone in a lonely place wearing a trench coat, and sitting in a car as an office. It also mentions taking an unusual angle shot of a murder scene.

The document also covers market experiments for forecasting, including test marketing in selected areas and controlled experiments with consumer samples.
Audience media
The document discusses the target audience, production companies, budget, age classification, and features of a new film. The target audience is late teens interested in a change from typical action films, and the mystery/action/thriller elements may attract more girls due to the starring role. The production companies, Miramax and Bad Robot Productions, are experienced with similar genres. The budget is estimated at £8 million, requiring less well-known stars like Pulp Fiction. The age classification is 15 to target older teens and make more money. The film contains action and thriller elements to attract its target audience of older teens and young adults.
5 mental training e alpinismo
Uno dei lati più oscuri del pianeta ar-rampicata è il cosiddetto “aspetto mentale”. Trascurato sino a poco tempo fa (probabilmente nemmeno ci si immaginava esistesse), oggi qualcuno comincia timidamente a parlarne.
1 la catena di sicurezza
La catena di sicurezza è costituita da tutti quegli elementi (imbrago, corda, moschettoni, fettucce, cordini, ancoraggi,…) che concorrono alla sicurezza della cordata in caso di caduta.
2 nodi e progressione
Non sono molti i nodi che vengono comunemente usati in alpinismo, sia che si tratti di attività su roccia, neve, ghiaccio o anche su vie ferrate. Tuttavia è fondamentale conoscerli bene ed essere in grado di eseguirli velocemente, alla perfezione e praticamente ad occhi chiusi: ne va della sicurezza di tutta la cordata.
4 la scaletta della scalata
Presentazione schematica delle fasi di progressione della cordata sia in parete che su monotiro.
3 le soste
In queste note troverete indicazioni e considerazioni sulle principali tipologie di soste adottate per l’assicurazione di una cordata in alpinismo e in arrampicata, con particolare riguardo alle caratteristiche e alle modalità della loro predisposizione.
