Photography Project

Photo prompt: offense on school grounds 

 


1. In a few sentences, describe what you will photograph to respond to your photo prompt. (Note: Your photograph should have a human subject.) Also briefly discuss the overall look/feel/mood you are attempting.

 The person will be standing outside the principal's office (the door that says the principal's name and title) with a look of horror and a referral paper in hand.

 

 

2.  Create a hand-drawn version of your intended photograph. This must be shown to Reynolds by either Monday or Tuesday next week (9/30 or 10/1). Your photo should not be taken before your rough sketch is made. 





 

 

3. With your intentions in mind, describe each of the following for your photograph:

• Lighting

 Office lighting (bright)

 

• Setting

 Front office outside principal's door

 

• Costumes, hairstyles, makeup

 Teenage style: T-Shirt, shorts, sneakers, socks, up or down hairstyle, minimal makeup

 

• Props and decor

Title Research analysis

The film I chose is “No Hard Feelings”. After looking over the summary and watching the film the title makes sense but I would not be able to guess the plot just based off the title. Based off the title and the images used I would think it’s a comedy about a struggling 20 something year old not a romcom. The styles of art used in the film is very lighthearted and comedy-like. I would not use this style in my opening sequence as my film would be a different genre and theme. In my opening sequence I hope the viewer will think it is a normal maybe coming of age film. But there will be a plot twist that makes it a thriller/ murder mystery. But the title can still add some meaning to the film, similar to this film. My title may not add too much meaning just by looking at it but after watching the film, the title will make sense. That way the title doesn’t give the entire plot away.

Opening sequence peer review

Feedback: “My review: This video, created by Liz, Hailey, Margaret, and Jason made a very good opening. The key thing that stuck out was their brilliant use of sound to convey what was happening in the scene. At the beginning everything is happy and there is a song playing while they are joyfully getting ice cream but then an alarming score and heartbeats begin to start when the killer is close to the girl. It’s dark when they leave which also contributes to it being a horror opening which was a good idea. Another thing that was good was mid shot following the girl through the ally. Your mise en scene and cinematography was well done and it really conveyed that it was a horror movie opening. Finally, the setting was well thought out and the alley played into horror tropes which is smart. There are a couple  negatives but they are very minor and not super detrimental to the quality of the film opening. The first critique is it could be longer. There could be more to the opening and ...

Production, Distribution, and Exhibition

  Production: On a small scale, I probably won't have a huge budget for film technology, actors, costume and design, or editing. With my final project, I will probably use some of my friends to be actors and just use my phone to film and probably iMovie to edit. I would love my final project to be financed so I could have a decent budget for it, but I probably won't. But it would probably be better if it's not financed so I would have more creative freedom and not be held to any expectations that it has to make some money back. So I'd rather be independent.  In my film, depending on the genre, I would probably use family and/or friends to be in it.   For production, I also need to find locations to shoot and what message I want to convey to viewers. Distribution: Since I would probably do a small-scale production, I would be distributing the film myself. I could probably upload on other social media platforms, such as YouTube or Instagram. I would have no way to rele...
