Film & TV Language: Sound video feedback and learner response

 1) Type up your feedback from your teacher.

-Interesting choice of music, I thought that the music changed but it was actually part of the song, transition worked very well with the sound. Worked very well for the second half for the contrapunctual sound

-Eminem's scene did not work as well in terms of parallel sound

-Aside from sound, very impressive editing synced with the beat of the song


2) Type up your feedback from fellow students - you can summarise key points if several students give you similar feedback.

3) Now reflect on your work and write your own evaluation of your video. Write a 'What went well' (WWW) paragraph and a paragraph for 'Even Better If' (EBI) underneath the rest of your feedback.

I think the song went with the clip maybe even both clips, however, I did make a second video which followed the criteria much much better however it got deleted from youtube. However the current video did go along with the criteria somewhat, however a specific scene did break some part of the immersion.

4) Learner response: compare your own video against your evaluation of the top three videos in the class. Whose did you think was best and why? How could you have improved your own video?

I think that the other videos were pretty good as they met their criteria properly with the task however some people did have static images which did possibly break the immersion, however, my video used videos and the sound was also synced with the video which people did like but as the EBI says one scene did not fit in with the sound.

5) Finally, what have you learned about the importance of sound to film and TV through this week's work?

Sound is one of the most important aspects along with what is being shown on screen, sounds can also give a lot of context to a scene or maybe even an image, sounds can also give photos life such as getting an image and then putting some music that fits for it. Sounds can also be used to convey actions without the action being shown.

Film & TV Language: poster analysis

Film poster 1: "Blade runner" Narrative: According to the slogan in the top right it seems that humans have created something that has endangered their entire species and now they must take over again. This may be a dystopian sort of movie where in the future humans are no longer the ones in control. Genre: A ction, thriller Target audience: Young adults/adults  Film poster 2: "Scary Movie 2" Narrative: Based on the denotations it seems that the movie is about people who go to see a movie that is supposedly "scary" but the denotations show that this may be all "fun and games" as the title is called scary movie and the irony of this is that the movie looks more like a comedy. Genre: Comedy, "horror" Target audience: Yong adults/adults Film poster 3: "Uzak" Narrative: The poster denotes a man who lives a lonely life in an isolated village, the establishing shot connotes that he is all alone by himself and he now has to live

Film & TV Language: Sound analysis tasks

  1) Find a film clip on YouTube that uses sound in an interesting way. Analyse the use of sound, making sure you use the key language we have learned about sound in film: Diegetic and non-diegetic sound Parallel and contrapuntal sound Sound bridges Remember to discuss/analyse all the different types of sound present in the clip: Music Dialogue Voiceover Sound effects You also need to  highlight  or put in  bold  any use of media language. Diegetic sounds: The dialogue in the scene is used to talk between the characters, in this case, it is to insult or intimidate them, another main use of the dialogue is the sounds that they make whether it is to convey pain or effort in a punch or swing. These are sounds that can be heard by both characters and the audience which makes the sound  diegetic. The sound effects of being hit with metal bars, punches, guns being loaded, etc. are all heard in this clip to convey an action or someone being hurt in this clip, the impact of these sounds em

Film & TV Language: Sound notes and practical task

Image
1) Choose a  60 second piece of music   - it can be a film score or a song, it is up to you. 2) Using editing software (Windows Moviemaker is fine but Adobe Premiere is available on Media PCs or at home if you are able to use it) produce a one-minute montage of images and video. Half the images need to be parallel to the music and half need to be contrapuntal. Think carefully about how you can best select images and video to have a significant impact on the audience. 3 ) Upload the finished video to YouTube and embed it in your own blog with a brief description of what you've created. Note: due to videos occasionally being blocked on copyright grounds, please also save the exported video file (e.g. MP4) into your student folder on the M: Media Shared drive. 4) Present your video to the class next week, explaining the thinking behind your work.
