Scene Without Actors
The document provides guidance for creating a scene without human performers using various technical elements like sound, lighting, projections, and objects. It discusses how technology can advance the narrative, evoke moods and feelings, or set up jokes. It also compares art and design, with design being purposeful and functional while art can be symbolic and emotive. Students are challenged to marry both function and expression in their scene. The document then discusses semiotics and how signs can have different meanings depending on context. It provides suggestions for technical elements to incorporate, like using lighting for moods, sound for environmental or narrative purposes, and projections to support or contradict the scene. It asks students to consider what they want to say, what impact they want to
Surrealism collage
The document summarizes the main techniques used to create a surrealist collage in Photoshop, including blending, cropping, selection, adjustment of contrast, brightness, black and white, levels, and curves. Key steps involved starting with two background images, cropping parts to use, applying filters to the clouds, using magnetic lasso to crop a figure and leave shoes, and eraser brush to blend colors between layers. Overall adjustments to levels, curves, contrast and brightness were made to each layer and image to create a cohesive collage.
Element of art: colour
Newton's discovery helped artists understand that colour is caused by the amount of light an object reflects or absorbs. There are three key properties of colour: hue (the name of the colour), value (lightness or darkness), and intensity (brightness or dullness). A colour wheel organizes colours into primary, secondary, and tertiary groups and is a useful tool for artists.
when the war began board game
The document provides instructions for an assessment task involving designing a board game based on the novel "Tomorrow When the War Began" and creating a 30-second television advertisement for the game. Students will be assessed on both the presentation of the board game and the advertisement, with the better of the two marks being recorded on their first term report. Assessment criteria focus on the use of verbal and visual features to communicate information and ideas for a specific audience.
Powerpoint presentation 3
Creativity skills involve experimenting with camera shots from different angles to show emotions and highlight characters, using different lighting and settings. Presenting ideas involves exploring costume ideas and actors while experimenting with different options like lighting, locations, and models.
Cone of experience
The document discusses Edgar Dale's Cone of Experience, which is a model used to explain the relationship between different types of audio-visual media and their role in the learning process. The Cone of Experience arranges 11 stages of learning experiences from concrete experiences at the bottom to more abstract experiences at the top. It suggests that more meaningful learning occurs when experiences incorporate more senses and when experiences are mixed and related across the different stages.
Mise en-scene
This document discusses various elements of mise-en-scene that filmmakers use to convey meaning, including color symbolism in settings, costumes, props, blocking/performance, and lighting. Costumes, makeup, and hair are used to establish a character's identity and cultural context. Props have symbolic significance and express character traits and mood. Blocking refers to actors' positioning and movement in relation to the camera. Lighting can be high-key for an even look or low-key for high contrast, and is used strategically along with location and set design to achieve specific artistic goals for each scene and film.

This document discusses various technical elements of media language including mise-en-scene, camera techniques, sound, and editing. It introduces concepts from semiotics such as the distinction between signifier and signified proposed by Saussure. Peirce's categorization of signs as symbolic, iconic, or indexical is also outlined. The document discusses how Barthes applied semiotic concepts to show how signs take on dominant ideological meanings within a society and shape perceptions in subtle ways.
Background adjustments
This document discusses various background adjustment tools in image editing software including invert, posterize, threshold, gradient editor, selective color, vibrance, hue/saturation, color balance, black and white, channel mixer, brightness/contrast, levels, curves, and exposure. These tools can be used to modify and enhance images.

PIXAR is known for its animated films represented by the light symbol, which connotes hope, positivity, and hard work. The blue/grey color of Pixar's background contrasts well with the font and conveys a peaceful, happy feel for the animation studio. DreamWorks' name connotes that it creates unrealistic dreams in films.
Assignment 14 part 3
The document discusses various brush tools for photo editing, including Repair which automatically fixes defects, Red Eye which removes red eye, Saturate and Desaturation for adjusting color, and tools for lightening, darkening, sharpening and softening parts of an image. It also covers tagging photos with categories and sharing edited photos on social media.
Key concepts of media
This document discusses different aspects of media language used in various genres and formats. It describes how media language is used in print, film, television, and involves choices in font, delivery, body language, camera work, and sound design. Meaning is conveyed through denotation and connotation of visual and audio elements, with context and audience being important factors.
How to Draw Better Shadows
1) The document discusses techniques for rendering realistic light and shadow in 2D artwork, focusing on diffused light and direct light.
2) With diffused light, values should be slightly different on front-facing, side-facing, and top-facing planes, and shadows are soft with strong local color. With direct light, shadow shapes are most important and contrast is highest in the foreground.
3) The document emphasizes the importance of understanding how light affects relative values - a black surface in light can have a higher value than a white surface in shadow. Rendering light and shadow realistically requires seeing past local color and value.
Question 7
The document discusses the key differences between a preliminary film exercise and a final opening sequence created by the author. For the preliminary exercise, they had limited time and resources, which resulted in some continuity mistakes. However, they were able to follow the 180-degree rule. For the final opening, they had more time to plan, experiment with different shots and angles, locations, props, and costumes. This allowed them to create a more polished sequence that seamlessly incorporated soundtrack and title elements.
Media evaluation questions
The document discusses an opening title sequence for a film project. It provides analysis of several shots from the sequence. The shots establish the setting as a college, introduce the main character as a student, and hint at the genre as a thriller through props like a weapon. Feedback was gathered through questionnaires to help engage the intended audience of male students interested in similar films. The filmmakers learned skills in using camera and editing equipment to construct the title sequence.
Evaluation q7
The preliminary exercise helped the student understand various film techniques like using different types of shots to set mood, continuity editing, and the 180 degree rule. It made editing their final opening title sequence easier as they had practiced these skills in the preliminary. Some techniques they explored more in the final piece included using music, voiceovers, and setting due to fewer restrictions.
Target audience questionnaire
This document contains a questionnaire to understand a target audience for thriller/horror films. It asks about demographics like age and gender. It also asks about preferences for genre, viewing habits, importance of music, favorite movies, interests in the genre, expectations for the films, and influence of actors/directors. The goal is to learn more about what draws people to thriller and horror films.
Pitch for film opening title sequence2
The document pitches an opening title sequence for a psychological thriller film about a college student who becomes obsessed with his supply teacher. The sequence would introduce the main character as mentally unstable and insecure through the use of opera music and the character finding blood on his hands. It aims to attract a target audience of teenagers and young adults interested in violence, terror, and psychological themes. Resources, casting requirements, and a tentative 3-day shooting schedule are outlined.
Question 1
The opening sequence establishes the protagonist as an enigmatic figure involved in criminal activity through shots that emphasize his covered appearance, a knife, and money. A close-up of money underscores its importance, and a low-angle shot where we first see his face conveys his dominance. Washing blood off hands in the sink implies he may have committed murder. Visual conventions are used to set the crime/thriller genre and create mystery around the protagonist and his activities.
Question 3
StudioCanal UK would be a suitable distributor for the film "Dirty Riches" for three key reasons:
1) StudioCanal UK specializes in releasing British films, which is relevant as the film's target audience is in the UK.
2) It is an independent distributor, which would make negotiating a deal easier as an independent production company.
3) While it is a smaller distributor than major studios, the film has a national UK focus so StudioCanal's reach would be sufficient.
Question 6 media
The document discusses the production of a film called "Dirty Riches" and outlines the hardware, software, and online tools used during pre-production, production, and post-production.

Media 9 shots
The main character is a doll who seems innocent but suggests an underlying evil nature, contradicting how children are typically portrayed. She is presented differently than other characters, as if not fully alive or human. The film has elements of both horror and fantasy - horror due to its dark and unpleasant events suggested by props like scissors and pins, and fantasy through the unrealistic actions and characters. The dull, beige atmosphere and unsettling soundtrack build tension as the film introduces its unusual main character through a sequence of her sewing her own face.
Question 6
In producing their opening sequence for "Z Diary", the document discusses what was learned about technologies from the process. They used a Panasonic point and shoot camera which had autofocus issues, but overcame this by slightly adjusting frame positioning. Using a tripod, they discovered frames were sometimes not straight, requiring reshoots. In editing with Final Cut Pro, a new software for the individual, it was a learning curve but fun to experiment. Short cuts and dissolves were used to impact feelings and continuity in the opening sequence.
