WHAT HAVE I LEARNT ABOUT TECHNOLOGIES IN THE PROCESS OF CONSTRUCTING MY FILM SEQUENCE?
I have learnt a lot of things whilst films about camera work. Such as the importantce of keeping the camera steady whilst filming otherwise the film being to look ammeutre and not professional. Or if you want to create shaking as an effect you add it on afterwards during editing. I have also learnt about the angle of shots and how it can make the audience feel without even knowing. For example a low angle shot can show power and importance and the audience will sub conciously recognise this. We used a high angle shot on the church because in our thriller it is important. Also the use of extreme close ups is important in Thrillers and I learnt about the importance of these and how it shows complete detail and make the audience feel uncomfortable being so close up to something and in our media
production we used two on the same eye.
this is Tanzy using a tripod to get a smooth shot rather that being shakey
In our process of creating 'Flicker' we used Vegas for editing as one of our members has it on their laptop and uses it regulary. However I have never used this software before, and I did learn a lot about it. I learnt how to use colour correction and now it is a main feautre in our film sequence. We used colour correction to add an engima code to the sequence because they can't see the whole frame as the element of colour has been taken away which makes it more creepy. Also as the colour keeps switching from normal to red and then to purple this makes the audience uncomfortable as it keeps changing and the picture is the same object but at a different angle or it has changed, however it does also keep the audience engaged in the action because there is always something different on screen. We were inspired by 'Homeland' to use this effect as even though the series is not infact a thriller opening it could well be as it still uses conventions of thrillers such as an enigma code, obtrusive editing or shadows, and matched with the right music tit could be an opening to a thriller, so after watching the opening sequence we tried it and decided we liked it even more than our previous idea so we used it. From the editing we also used fast paced editing to create the scenes to flick through at a fast pace. This creates the audience to feel on edge and occupied by the film and for them not to have time to think about other things. We like this effect because ot was easy to do whilst it looks good with all the different creepy images and we could also flick back to previous images for example the small cross or people walking to suggest what our thriller is about.
I had also never used sound track pro before, this software was easy to use and I liked how you could get the video on screen and match the action with the sound for example how we matched the robot sound to the eye or choir boys to the shots of the church. Our sound was inspired by 'Knowing' because of their whispering sounds but we decided to use laughing instead because we found it more creepy and it matched what we want to create better than whispering.
