Movie opener brainstorming and research


The observations I made while watching these inspired me to come up with ideas for my own film such as the use of  b-roll and less significant shots that still add atmosphere and location. I want to use this technique in my own film as well. In order to make the movie feel more polished, I also want to alter the music to fit specific scenes and use such music to build either suspense or character. Each of the elements used in these films were intricate and used uniquely and I intend to do such thing as well.




 1. Rise

I noticed that the editing and soundtrack were interesting and made it funny to watch, among other things. However, I don't think the narrative was very clear because I didn't understand what the man who was watching from outside was trying to do. Because the opening titles were the calmest part of the video, they worked well as transitions as well.


2. Dear lover

I felt sad watching this movie, and the characters made me care for them. I was left wanting more by the cliffhanger nature of the conclusion.


3.Dare to thrill

Because of the automobile sequence and the quick jump cuts, this movie was entertaining to watch. I didn't understand the plot, though, and was perplexed by the resolution.


4.Always Watching

The music and conclusion both struck me as good. I enjoyed the way they interjected flashbacks of what occurred throughout the treatment session. Although the acting made the story a little amusing, it was a scary story.


5. The blue roar 

The music was original, well-done, and the cuts well complemented some of the lines. The actors' portrayal of the emotions gave it a Disney-like or specifically Pixar quality. The clothes were suitable for the genre of the movie.


6. White coat

The pictures were very carefully composed, and the perspectives clearly demonstrated the scientific work being done. A few photos, like the vapor in front of the lights, truly helped create atmosphere.


7. Stalker

I believed it suitable. The sound effects included made it seem comical, and the photos weren't particularly imaginative.


8. Nostalgia 

It was a very interesting movie. It had the air of an independent film. What will occur in my film will be comparable to the seemingly random but significant shots.

Blog Post Critiques

  Today I critiqued Dellroy's and Nicole's Blog post on camera angles/shots. Dellroy and his partner accurately executed the camera angles and shots to the best of their abilities. Some of the angles give a comedic effect, and really give the audience a good laugh. Each shot accurately displays its title, despite there being no description for the shots, it was over all still a great assignment. Personally, I would give them A plus. The post was great and could be used for future reference as well, if they ever want to look back on it and review what they learned prior. One thing I would change about the blog post is the layout of it. I believe they have potential, and with a little more work they can achieve more with their camera skills. One particular Camera shot I believe they accurately demonstrated is over the shoulder. The shot displays at an angle over Nicole's shoulder, while precisely catching a view of what the foreground and background looks like. This shot by f...

First Day Filiming

 Our fist day filming was a bit challenging to say the least. It actually took us a quite a while to film and it made us a little behind with our work. Even though we had a few obstacles, we pushed through and got 41 seconds done out of  the 1:51 that is required. These two clips consist of our production "Company"/name, and our Movie title. A lot of people have questioned us on the title of the movie, and it really has do with Monday being the day of the week that no one likes and Camila is considered the character that no one likes nor care for.  Our hallway scene probably was the scene that took us the longest to film but we thought this scene was imperative when capturing the emotion we wanted to evoke. We put this scene in to show the uniformity of the students in comparison to our character Camila who is seen as the outcast. This scene was kind of a filler; it was used to introduce Camila but also put in some of the credits.
