Comparing 9, the short, and 9, the full-length movie

Image
  Short Film  Today I watched the short film 9. This is a seven-minute-long animated short film. I really enjoyed watching this short film. The characters were really unique. I honestly liked the rag doll's appearance of some and the robotic appearance of others. The setting was also very unique and cool. It had a post-apocalyptic feel and somewhat reminded me of Wall-e. The sound is what really made an impact on me most though. There was no dialogue in the short film. The only sound really heard is diegetic and score. The lack of sound helped set the mood of the short film a lot. It made moments feel more scary and suspenseful. The sound of the robotic spider characters made me feel as if I was inside the film. The plot was interesting too. The main character is a rag doll-like with a 9 on its back. 9 seems to have had a mentor or a friend in the past. 9's friend has the same appearance but with a 5 instead of on its back. The mentor/friend seems to have saved 9 and died at t...

Storyboard for my Real Techniques Miracle Face & Body Sponge commercial

Image
First Scene- During this scene, I will be filming the beauty sponge. This will be an extreme closeup tracking the main subject. It will be recorded as a handheld via my phone. The location of this sponge is on top of a vanity that contributes to the conventions of a makeup commercial. This will be recorded at a semi-high single. Second Scene-   Secondly, in this next scene, I will film myself holding the sponge before it is wet. This will be a closeup to keep the focus on the sponge and actress being shown in the shot. The location is in front of a bright blue wall. This cut will pan from left to right at a medium past. Third Scene- Next, in this scene, I wanted to include a 'Before & After' of the sponge. The before will be before it is soaked in water and the after will be once it is damp and soft. This scene is to show the contrast of the sponge and how big it expands once wet. This will be a close-up shot. Fourth Scene- Additionally, this scene will show the applicatio...

Genres I would LOVE to research

Image
  For our three genres, we chose: drama, thriller, and mystery. We felt as if these genres matched our pitch perfectly. Our film calls for confusion, in both the actor and the audience. We never truly know what is going on until the end. Researching further into these genres will allow us to not only increase our knowledge but further our film.  Drama This genre employs emotion, various ranges of it. From happy to sad and shocked to scared. Drama is also very versatile. It allows for sub genres to be intertwined with it. With that being said, researching this genre would help us make a good foundation. Thriller   For our film we want to explore dark and engrossing feelings. Mood plays a big part. The aspects of Thriller will help us achieve it. We also want to make sure that the audience stays interested. As our film is only five minutes, every second counts. Mystery   For our film we want the end to be mine blowing. Rather than leaving off on a cliffhanger, we want ...
