Sample sow-for-time-in-cinema
This document outlines a sample structure for a cinema club program called Cinemacent ans de jeunesse that explores concepts of time through film. Over 25 weeks, students would watch clips relating to different themes about time, complete three exercises filming shots exploring time's passage, and ultimately plan and film their own short film mixing showing and telling that includes changes in pace. Key activities include analyzing early cinema's temporal techniques, recording the continuity of actions, capturing dynamic tension under time pressure, and observing transformations over long takes.
Sample scheme of work for sensory cinema
This document outlines a sample 26-week program called "Sensory Cinema" for exploring film through a sensory lens. It involves watching film clips each week that represent different themes like childhood memories, pure sensations, disconnected senses. Students do exercises like creating a short film representing everyday sensations or responding to music through images and sounds. They also work in groups on a final film project exploring sensations from different perspectives meant to cross boundaries between documentary, experimental and fiction filmmaking. The program is flexible and can be adjusted to fit available timeframes between 8-10 or up to 26 weeks.
Time in cinema
This document discusses concepts of time in cinema. It begins by explaining that film is inherently a time-based medium structured around duration. Filmmakers use techniques like temporal markers and editing to manipulate the experience and flow of time. Early films by the Lumière brothers and Alice Guy Blaché explored the discoveries of capturing time through a motion picture. There are different types of time in film including scene time, duration, and simultaneous time. Exercises are proposed to experiment with capturing the passage of time through long takes, cuts, and transformations over the duration of a shot.
CCAJ 'La Situation'
This document outlines the structure and content for a filmmaking course focused on analyzing and creating situations. The course will run for 12-25 weeks and include viewing film clips, discussions, and completing exercises and a final film project centered around situations. Students will analyze situations through examining elements like character, setting, camerawork, and emotions. They will complete exercises filming situations without dialogue, between two characters linked to an emotion, and a final film where a situation changes over time, shifting viewer identification.
launch of sensory cinema
This document outlines the structure and goals of a 12-25 week filmmaking course titled "Sensory Cinema". The course will involve watching film clips to analyze how sensations are conveyed, completing three short film exercises paying attention to sensations, and making a final group film of 7-8 minutes focusing on sensations as perceived by characters or viewers. Examples of films that effectively convey sensations are provided. An analysis framework is introduced that focuses on how the five senses, movement, time, character perspectives, place, and memory are used to tell stories and evoke sensations through film.
CLC meteo
The document outlines exercises for children to make short films about weather as part of a French program called "Cinema, 100 Years of Youth" run by the Cinematheque Francaise, where children watch film clips to learn techniques and then make their own short films on assigned themes like weather over the course of three exercises culminating in an 8 minute film.
Editing technique (robbie h.) part 2
This document discusses techniques of editing that manipulate time and space within films. It provides examples of how rhythm, pace, and parallel editing can suggest the passage of time. Slow pace at the beginning of a scene can create tension, while rapid pace later can indicate intensifying action. Flashforwards and flashbacks can also manipulate the dimension of time. Regarding space, the 180-degree rule and establishing shots can construct logical spatial relationships between characters and surroundings. Point-of-view shots and shot reverse shots allow the audience to identify with characters by seeing events from their perspective.
Assignment 7 helen, marisha, rosie (3)
This summary analyzes the last scene from The Hunger Games. It examines whether the scene represents a whole narrative, section, or enigma. The scene is presented linearly and in real time, with no graphics or flashbacks. It features a single narrative from the hero's perspective as she gets ready to shoot, misses her target, tries to get attention, and succeeds. The scene takes over an hour but is condensed to 2 minutes and 25 seconds through editing.

unit 21- editing techniques
Unit 21 discusses different types of editing techniques in cinema. There are two main types: continuity editing, which stitches shots together logically and seamlessly to direct viewer attention along a linear storyline, and non-continuity editing, which intentionally disrupts time/space continuity to draw attention to the editing process. Examples are given of how different techniques like cross-cutting build suspense. Specific movie scenes like from The Hangover, X-Men: First Class, Interstellar, and Inglorious Basterds are analyzed in detail to illustrate perfect continuity editing, training montages, cross-cutting, and a bomb-planting montage respectively.
Editing
The document discusses various editing techniques used in film including continuity, montage, cross cutting, transitions like dissolves and wipes, and action editing. It explains how these techniques are used to seamlessly flow between shots, condense time, build tension between parallel events, and pace action sequences. Depending on the genre and tone, editors manipulate the cutting rate and transition styles to best direct the audience's experience.
Location recce
This document provides an assessment of Castlefield Car Alleyway as a potential filming location. It notes that the alleyway has enough enclosed space to film multiple indoor scenes, and its lack of natural light and background noise make it suitable. Both close-up and wider shots could work there. No permission is needed as it is a public area. Additional lighting may be required depending on weather. Noise from people and traffic could interfere but can be addressed in editing. The best times to film are between 10-11am or 2-3pm to avoid disturbances. Safety issues will be evaluated in a risk assessment.
Continuity edit evaluation
The continuity edit of the filmmaker's short film closely follows the storyboards and master scene script. Camera techniques like pans and shifts in depth of field were used intentionally throughout the edit to emphasize important moments and characters. The single camera technique and shot reverse shots helped illustrate the layout of scenes and allowed the characters' movements between shots to feel natural and avoid discontinuity. The overall aim of the edit was to maintain a steady pace comparable to a professional production while remaining faithful to the plans in the storyboards.
Session 9 week 5
The document summarizes the first week of editing for a short film project. During this week, the team did a reshoot of a rejection scene from a different angle. They also shot a new scene of the character Hermione planning revenge. Now that filming was complete, it was time to edit the footage using Final Cut Pro editing software. The summary introduces the basic layout and tools of Final Cut Pro to put together the various shots, transitions, and sounds into the finished film.
Passage Of Time
This document discusses three elements of time structure in narrative cinema: temporal order, temporal duration, and temporal frequency. Temporal order refers to the chronological ordering or non-linear structuring of events. Temporal duration involves manipulating the passage of time through techniques like foreshortening or expanding time. Temporal frequency uses the repetition of shots or scenes to emphasize events or reveal new perspectives. By analyzing these three elements of time structure, one can understand the rhythm and pacing of a film's narrative.

It lists the file name, type of source, description, who produced it, length of the clip, where it would be used in the advertisement, and why it was included. The clips show various shots of Pepe and a clock at different speeds, Pepe drinking a drink called Zingo, and Pepe walking or moving at different paces. The audio file is a song that could accompany one of the scenes to make the advertisement more interesting. Permission is not required to use any of the assets.
Editing techniques
This document discusses various film editing techniques including continuity editing, montages, and parallel editing. Continuity editing aims to present scenes in a natural, consistent manner while montages condense time. Parallel editing cuts between two simultaneous events to build suspense. Examples are provided from classic films like Battleship Potemkin and Way Down East that demonstrate early uses of montages and parallel editing. A training montage from Rocky III is also analyzed, showing how editing techniques can emphasize character development and emotion.
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.
Sequencing - storyboard
The document provides guidance on storyboarding a scene for a horror film, including:
1. It recommends starting with a wide shot to establish the scene, then a mid-shot to show the actors, and possibly a reverse shot.
2. Each scene should use a variety of shots, not just one, to make the action exciting. There should never be the same shot next to each other.
3. Examples of shots include wide shot, mid shot, close-up, cutaway, two shot, and point of view shot. Proper eye line and headspace between actors and camera is also important.
Analysing the introduction to se7en
The opening scene shows the main protagonist Somerset in bed, unable to sleep due to noise from the next room. Shots show his frustration and attempts to focus on a metronome to block out the noise. This microcosm represents his desire to escape the noise and disruption of city life. The transition to the opening titles is abrupt, leaving the viewer feeling something is missing. The titles use an uneasy, flickering font and fast editing to set an unsettling tone and prepare viewers for disturbing visuals and an exciting thriller.
Smoke Scene Evidence of Filming
The document discusses evidence related to a smoke bomb scene that was filmed. It indicates that filming took place and that the Avenue Group was involved in some capacity with the smoke bomb scene filming.
Meteo
This document outlines the curriculum for a film workshop focused on exploring how weather and the seasons are depicted in cinema. Over the course of several months, students will analyze how weather influences narrative, mood, and cinematography by studying examples from films like Citizen Kane and The Shining. Students will then complete a series of exercises filming different weather conditions and their effects. They will film the weather at their home, capture feelings evoked by weather, and film the same scene in various conditions. For a final project, students will create a short film incorporating a shelter, solitude, and appropriately recorded weather elements to influence the viewer's emotions.

- Single camera production uses one camera to film each shot from different angles, while multi-camera uses multiple cameras simultaneously.
- Single camera is used for dramas, documentaries and comedies as it allows more creative control, while multi-camera is used for live productions like news shows.
- A scene from the film Silence of the Lambs effectively demonstrates how single camera captures emotions and tension between two characters in a confined space better than multi-camera could.
Principles and purposes of editing presentation
This document discusses various principles and techniques of film editing that are used to construct meaning, including joining images (montage), controlling tempo, precise timing of cuts, use of shot reverse shot patterns, eye-line matching, continuity editing, and following the 180-degree rule. It provides examples from films like Psycho, Casino Royale, and Mean Girls to illustrate how editors manipulate elements like the speed of cuts, audio-visual synchronization, and camera angles to influence the audience's experience and understanding of the story.
Task 1
1) The purpose of short films is for filmmakers to gain experience, showcase their talent through film festivals, and help secure funding for future projects.
2) Narratives in films establish cause-and-effect relationships between events over time and space to deliver a story through visuals and dialogue.
3) Different elements like structure, characters, themes and genres are important aspects of narrative analysis that help communicate the story.
evaluation 1
The document discusses how the film Paperweight conforms to and develops conventions of short films in several areas:
1) The narrative follows conventions like having an open or ambiguous ending and depicts the characters as outsiders.
2) The single location of the house enhances the simplicity and symbolism while developing color palette conventions.
3) Sound uses ambient noise over dialogue to highlight the character's communication style while the score enhances mood.
4) Character archetypes are used to create tension as opposites through casting and costuming conventions.
5) The studio ident appears low-budget through effects and simple design to match the expected production values.
Film Analysis2
The short film Night After Night depicts a homeless man named Sam who lives and breathes in the night to hide from the world and forget his own demise. Directed by Alex Paterakis with no known funding, the film aims to represent homeless and lower class people and show how their minds can make their situations worse rather than helping them escape it. Isolated in his own thoughts, Sam drifts further into his mind and away from reality, becoming a gaunt creature of the dark as he struggles with his past mistakes and mortality.
Spaced -Theory Analysis
The episode borrows heavily from action movie styles through clever editing. In the opening scene, Tim and Daisy are chased by teenage thugs and later cornered in an alley, mirroring the freeze frame opening. Various techniques like music, flashbacks, and slow motion establish antagonists. Tension builds between Tim and a rival, Dwaine Benzie. The episode parodies itself as Tim and Daisy pretend to shoot at the thugs in the alley, playing along with fantasy sequences and war film sound effects for humor. Through references, editing, and self-parody, the episode creates comedy by not taking itself too seriously.
Evaluation - Question 1
The document evaluates how a media product uses, develops, or challenges conventions of real media products. It notes that the product includes conventions of romantic comedies like a couple going through a phase and introducing relationship drama through a third party. However, it also develops conventions by introducing characters at the start to tell their stories in the present rather than the past. Additionally, it challenges conventions by placing credits in the middle of the opening rather than the start and not including a typical voiceover.
Editing Music Videos - Task 4

The document discusses key lessons and insights from a mid-term review of a filmmaking project focused on representing places. Some of the challenges discussed include balancing the representation of place with narrative elements, distinguishing between unique places and more generic spaces, and how to present places as characters.

Talk to ITEM conference January 2018
The document discusses how imagination, creativity, and moving images can help find things we don't know we're looking for. It notes that if our only tool is a yardstick, we will only look for what can be measured. The arts can slow down perception, invite exploration, and give permission to play. Looking and listening closely to images, stories, and the world around us can lead to surprises. When teaching, it is important to slow children's perceptions, explore the potential of film, use constraints in creative tasks, help children closely examine their creations, and make room for surprise.
