The mood board references the movie "In Time" to match the concept of time being currency in the short film. TV shows like "Luther" and "Body Guard" are included to help create suspense through atmosphere rather than music. The camera work in "Euphoria" is cited as inspiration for fluid storytelling through angles and movement. Plans are described to make the interrogation room futuristic with blue LED lighting and a well-lit space rather than dark.

Lighting in Music Videos
Lighting is an important element in conveying mood in music videos. The document examines three music videos - Rihanna's "We Found Love", Kesha's "Tik Tok", and Jessie J's "Who You Are" - and how lighting was used in each to portray different emotions. For "We Found Love", dim lighting created a dull, sad feeling to match the song's theme of love and heartbreak. "Tik Tok" used bright, natural lighting to give an airy, happier impression for its upbeat party theme. "Who You Are" employed blue-tinted lighting to convey coldness and depth for its personal lyrics. The document concludes lighting is crucial for revealing feelings in music and will
History of film
The document provides a history of film from its origins in puppetry and magic lanterns in the 1800s through developments in the 2000s. Some key events and innovations discussed include Eadweard Muybridge's 1872 experiments capturing motion on film; the invention of reel film in 1885; the introduction of editing techniques and the concept of cinematic time in the 1900s; the rise of Hollywood studios and directors in the 1920s; the increased use of sound and new genres in the 1930s Golden Age; the role of film propaganda during World War 2 in the 1940s; and the transition to digital technology and home video in the late 20th century. The document traces over 200 years of technological advances and changing approaches
Film Moodboard
The mood board analyzes a film about a boy whose ambition comes true when he discovers something mysterious in a nearby lake. The mood board's green design reflects the film's theme of nature and how it relates to the boy and the meaning of the story. Images on the mood board show the boy being bullied for being different, finding the unknown object in the lake, using his father's boat to achieve his ambition, and making a decision in his green bedroom. The codes and conventions for the film include slow camera shots focusing on reactions, a mysterious editing style without added dialogue to build tension, quiet sounds establishing each scene, and outdoor lighting and settings to present a realistic view connected to nature.

Ideology in films
This document discusses how ideology is portrayed in films. It defines ideology as a set of ideas that reflect social values and influence beliefs and actions. Films can promote certain dominant ideologies around topics like family values, work ethic, consumerism, and gender roles. For example, many early Disney films portrayed women as dependent on men and finding romance as their primary goal. While more recent films like Sex in the City show how ideologies have evolved over time to depict women as more independent, they still reinforce the ideology of marriage as the ultimate achievement. The way things are portrayed in films shapes societal understanding and experiences of those topics in real life.
Composition in Film
This document discusses various compositional techniques in filmmaking. It defines composition and some key compositional elements like shot types, camera angles, movement, lead room, the rule of thirds, and static versus dynamic composition. It notes that compositional rules can be intentionally broken to create interesting shots, citing the example of the film Jaws.
WHAT IS CINEMATOGRAPHY?
This document defines cinematography and discusses various cinematography techniques. It begins by defining cinematography as how the camera is used to create meaning through elements like camera movement, lenses, and lighting. It then discusses different shot types like close-ups, long shots, and over-the-shoulder shots and how they impact viewers. Finally, it covers concepts like depth of field, camera movement, framing, and the rule of thirds to guide visual storytelling.

Iconography of Drama Psychological Thriller
This document discusses various iconography used in psychological thriller and drama films. For psychological thrillers, it describes the use of low key lighting, knives, confined spaces/claustrophobia, shadows to create feelings of danger and uncertainty. For dramas, it emphasizes the importance of realism, dramatic irony, rites of passage, character development, and emotional depth to help audiences relate to characters and understand their perspectives. The document analyzes examples from films like Sin City, Psycho, 127 Hours, and others to illustrate how different iconography is employed in each genre.
Introduction to film finance
The cost of films varies greatly depending on factors like production requirements, rights, success of the production company, crew size, length of production, and distribution costs. Very low budget films like 'The Blair Witch Project' were made for only $60,000 by using unknown actors, minimal crews who also filmed, and natural lighting. Government grants and tax schemes are available to encourage film production and bring jobs and culture to a country, but securing major investment usually relies on pre-sales of distribution rights to studios.

The french new wave
The French New Wave was a film movement that emerged in France in the late 1950s and 1960s. Inspired by young film critics writing for Cahiers du Cinema, it emphasized auteur theory and featured unconventional stylistic techniques like jump cuts, handheld camerawork, and location shooting. Directors like Francois Truffaut, Jean-Luc Godard, Claude Chabrol, and Eric Rohmer made personal, politically-minded films that broke conventions and influenced global cinema.

Single camera techniques
This document discusses the key differences between single camera and multi-camera film production techniques. Single camera productions use only one camera and allow more creative control over shots, but they are more time consuming. Some advantages of single camera include more realistic shots, ability to light scenes individually, and consistency in audio tracks. Common genres for single camera include drama, horror, and period films. Multi-camera is faster but provides less directorial control, and is better suited for genres like comedy and soap operas that need quick production turnarounds.

Captain Fantastic and La La Land Spectatorship notes (A Level Film)
The document discusses theories of spectatorship in relation to the films La La Land and Captain Fantastic. It analyzes several scenes from both films:
1) The ending of La La Land manipulates viewers' emotions through lighting and cinematography but also allows audiences to interpret two possible endings.
2) Captain Fantastic's happy ending sequence uses bright colors and active characters to invoke feelings of happiness in viewers, relating to theories of escapism.
3) Both films include ambiguous scenes that leave interpretations open to viewers rather than imposing a single meaning, demonstrating how audiences can form their own understandings.
Iconography of the thriller genre
Knives, shadows, confined spaces, woods, and cities are common iconography in thriller genre films. Knives symbolize violence and death and are used to increase tension. Shadows and silhouettes build mystery and suspense by implying someone is being watched. Being trapped in confined spaces causes characters to feel anxious and struggle to escape. Woods isolate characters and make them feel lost and vulnerable. Cities ground psychological thrillers in reality and bring the drama closer to home for audiences.
Mise en scene
The dominant contrast is Enid, dressed in bright blue. After taking her in, the eye is drawn to:
- Seymour, who is also a large object in focus. As the other person in the conversation, he is an important secondary focus.
- The kitchen backdrop and appliances, which provide context for the setting of the scene.
So in summary, after Enid, the eye moves between Seymour as the other character, and the kitchen setting around them, which provides information about where this interaction is taking place.

Lady Gaga - Telephone & Paparazzi
Lady Gaga's music videos for "Paparazzi" and "Telephone" directed by Jonas Akerlund feature heavy intertextuality, referencing famous films and other music videos. Both videos reference the works of Tarantino, with "Telephone" imitating his stylistic features and including references to Pulp Fiction and Kill Bill. "Paparazzi" references Sunset Boulevard and Chicago in its narrative and visual style. Akerlund establishes his own visual style across both videos through these intertextual references to cinema.
Initial Plans
The document outlines Charlie Atkin's initial plans for a short film project that must be under 60 seconds. They are considering either a comedy or horror genre. They want to include a clock and the statement "That wasn't supposed to happen" non-verbally. Jump cuts will be used to fit the time constraint. Reference shorts helped them understand how to structure the story concisely. More attention will be paid to editing and post-production to enhance the storytelling. The style will feature darkness, minimal lighting, and POV and close-up shots to set a nighttime, horror-like mood. A mood board will help inform the filming style to make the short seem authentic.
In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conv...
The document discusses how the media product uses and develops conventions of real thriller/horror genres to seem authentic. Various techniques are described, including camera shots from different angles (over the shoulder, high angle, low angle) to manipulate audience perspective and power dynamics. Editing techniques like fast pace, zoom, and time lapse are used to build tension, suspense and provide escapism. Sound techniques like non-diegetic music and ambient noise are employed. Examples from films like Psycho, Jaws, and Insidious are referenced as inspirations for these genre conventions. While conforming to expectations, some techniques are used unconventionally to create ambiguity and allow audience interaction and interpretation.

Evaluation Short Film
The document summarizes the filmmaker's process of creating a short horror film exploring déjà vu. They watched similar films to understand how to effectively tell this story. Their planning helped determine shots and angles. However, they ran short on time and equipment, limiting reshoots and edits. While the camera work was inspired by another film, lack of color grading and noisy audio hindered the final product. With more time and resources, the filmmaker feels they could have achieved a more polished, creative final film.
Media Evaluation V2
The document summarizes the use of media technologies in the construction, research, planning and evaluation of a horror film trailer project.
For research, Wall Wisher and YouTube were used to conduct audience research and find reference trailers. An animatic was created using iMovie to plan shot sequences. A digital camera captured footage that was edited in iMovie, including color filters, fades and on-screen text. Survey Monkey collected audience feedback to evaluate the teaser trailer.
3. Research
The document summarizes research on existing films to inform the development of a short film project. It analyzes Shutter Island, A Cure for Wellness, Fight Club, and Before I Fall. Key techniques explored include camera angles, lighting, colors/tones, locations, sound design, and non-linear timelines. Clues and plot twists were also examined to understand how to engage audiences. Overall, the research highlighted techniques for conveying emotions subtly and creating tension and unease through visual and audio elements.
What we plan to do
The document outlines the filmmaking techniques and conventions that will be used in a short film created by Jamie Beadle, Tabitha Beerling and Connor Sandum. They plan to use low lighting, fast cuts, medium close-ups and a non-linear narrative structure to create a sense of mystery and keep the audience questioning. They also intend to follow Todorov's narrative theory of disrupting equilibrium during the film and ultimately restoring it at the end.
Short Film Analysis - Over
The document provides an analysis of the cinematography, editing, sound, and mise-en-scene techniques used in the short film "Over". It notes that extreme wide shots are used throughout to give the audience an outsider perspective. Close-ups are briefly used to transition between time periods and break immersion. The editing clearly shows the reverse chronological order using timestamps. There is no soundtrack to build immersion. Props are used to convey plot points without revealing too much too quickly, but this also prevents audience immersion by not allowing speculation.
Techniques I like
The document discusses techniques that the author intends to use in their thriller film opening sequence. These include establishing shots to set the scene and atmosphere, as well as a small plot twist at the end to entice audiences to watch more. Focus pulls and dolly zooms are also discussed to hide/reveal details and emphasize emotions. In conclusion, the author believes incorporating these researched techniques will help them create an intriguing opening that sets up the thriller conventions and narrative.
Alice200
The filmmaker learned several technologies through making their film. They learned camera skills like angles, zooming, and lighting. They also learned editing skills in Premiere Pro, such as intercutting shots. However, they faced challenges with lighting and continuity between shots due to limitations of only having lamps. For future projects, they would film scenes for longer durations and try to complete all scenes in one filming session for consistent lighting.
Proposal
The document proposes a stop motion short film about a man who finds a watch that allows him to freeze time. The man abuses this power but his greed leads to his downfall. The ending leaves it ambiguous whether finding the watch was real or a dream. The film aims to appeal to young male audiences who prefer time travel and fantasy genres. It will use Adobe Premiere to edit clips and make it seem like time is frozen, keeping special effects minimal to maintain realism. An evaluation will assess what worked well, such as the story, and areas for improvement like acting quality.
Films Influencing Planning
The document discusses how different horror films have influenced the planning of a narrative. Silent Hill is praised for its realistic narrative and strange characters that could be included. Taken is described as an action/thriller film with mystery and conflict that could inspire a similar point of view. Saw uses dark settings, costumes soaked in blood, and surreal techniques that could be replicated in an opening scene. The Conjuring convinces audiences with its portrayal of true events, an approach worth using to hook viewers.
SF Evaluation
Connor Wiffen conducted research to inform the production of their short film. This included primary research through surveys to understand the target audience's preferences in genres and film concepts. Secondary research examined what types of films were suitable for this audience. The research helped determine the type of film to create. Connor reflected that finding more specific information on similar successful films could have improved their film. Planning included developing the story, storyboards, and production schedule. Connor felt providing more detail in planning could have improved the efficiency of filming. Overall, Connor worked diligently to the production timeline but reflected that more time would have allowed improvements like re-shooting scenes or adding original music.
Media Evaluation Questions 1 & 4
The document discusses conventions used in film trailers and posters. It analyzes the location, lighting, editing, and color correction choices made in a horror film trailer based on genre conventions. Text overlays and fades between scenes are described as conventional trailer techniques. Symmetry, prominent text, and obscured faces are discussed as conventions for magazine covers and horror movie posters. The effectiveness of maintaining consistent fonts, actors, and visual styles across the trailer, poster, and magazine cover is also assessed.

Leon Boyce outlines initial plans for a short film project that must include an alarm clock or watch and the phrase "That wasn't supposed to happen." They are considering a story centered around an alarm clock with jump cuts between the protagonist and the clock ticking down. While experimental films are interesting, they think something more straightforward would be better given time constraints. They analyzed successful short films to understand genres and importance of post-production. A quick paced story with a relatable protagonist and cliffhanger ending would engage audiences. The film "Angst" inspired ideas around focusing on one moving object and using rack focus between shots.
Lighting research
The document discusses lighting research for a trailer for the psychological thriller "Hatched". It begins by stating the intention to follow conventions of low key lighting typically used in thrillers. It then discusses plans to shoot most scenes at night using artificial lighting like torches and car headlights. While planning, the author noticed an overuse of low key lighting so intends to include a variety of lighting levels to be more realistic and avoid cliches. Examples from real movie trailers are provided to illustrate effective use of different lighting types like ambient, low angle, and backlighting to set mood, create tension, and leave things ambiguous. Lighting techniques are outlined that will be used in the trailer, such as backlighting to hide details
01 Prelimianry Evalutation
The document summarizes the author's preliminary task of creating a 30 second movie trailer clip to gain experience using a camera and editing software. The trailer depicted a quiet woman's love story through a variety of shots and artistic shots expressing different emotions. While the range of shots and scene transitions worked well, the time limit prevented adding sound or text animations as planned, but future clips would allow more software proficiency.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Moodboard script
- 1. Short Film Mood board With the movie “In Time” is mostly going to be used as it matches the concept of the film, that time can be given or taken from you depending on your actions. However, it’s the same as the movie as time is not used as a type of currency. As for Luther and Body Guard, (tv shows), these are mainly here to help with the feel of the film as they manage to create suspense quite successfully without having an actual score behind a scene.
- 2. I’ve included Euphoria as an inspiration for the type of camera work that I’d like to include in the film. The camera angles along with the camera movement that include in the show really allows the story to be told quite fluently. For the interrogation room I wanted to create something that looked more futuristic, and have it under a blue LED rather than a white one and have it so the room is actually well lit rather than it being dark. The type of shots I’d like to use
