TASK - 1

LOCATION 

For a horror film the location of the movie very important because this is where the scenes will be set and this will tell the story to the audience watching. The Location of the movie should be a place that make the audience feel fear and unsettled. Usually places such as abandoned houses , old malls etc . familiar locations that has been used in horror films are : Ennis House- House On Haunted Hill , Monroeville Mall - Dawn Of The Dead. These are set in either a abandon area, also The use of the building can symbolise to the audience a feeling that the setting might be oppression and dreariness for the audience

​

LIGHTING 

​

In a Horror film lighting is key to movie's as light will help set he scene also by helping show the main characters/ villain . High key lighting would be used to catch the main characters facial expression or their body language. Also , low key and blackouts will also be very necessary as using black will be used to create suspension for the audience also the low key lighting will help create tension as something might pop up and scare the audience. This is what make a great horror film as lighting is used a lot in films. 

​

COSTUME 

​

Costume is one of the most important elements for a horror film as the costume that a character has will Connote who they might be in the film , with using costumes in horror is different as characters present with different costumes , for example in the movie IT the Main character/villain wears a clown costume with a red baron in his hand , this symbolises that the character has a certain item with them that make them stand out from the other characters . This also tells the audience how to tel the different between the different characters

​

PROPS 

​

The use of props is used a lot in horror films as props help define the characters role wether it could be a protagonist or a antagonist . The prop could be used as a weapon or something to help protect something /someone. Props could be : A Bat , Hammer , etc. 

​

NVC 

Non-Verbal Communication could be used a lot in a horror film but it depends on the event that is taken place . NVC is important as it will help to see the characters facial expressions on what they are feeling and could be experiencing , this give the audience the chance connect and experience the same feeing that the characters . This is how audiences face  having favourite characters

​

CAMERA TECHNIQUES 

Camera techniques are important in horror films . The use of camera techniques is useful to show the action for the audience. The use of blackout, creates tension for the audience. Camera techniques such as: High angle , Tracking , Big Close up , Canted Angle etc are used a lot in film to create tension and suspension for the audience watching. 

SOUND TECHNIQUES
Infrasound, the sound that can't be heard, plays a vital role in setting an ominous tone. Infrasound is a wavelength of sound that is just out of range for human ears to hear, however this does not stop it from causing a reaction in humansSound Effects

For example, distant creepy movements and eerie haunting winds that are played in the background are what build up the spooky atmosphere. Sound effects that mimic human fear, including pulsing heartbeats and slow and heavy breathing, also increases the level of scariness. Sound in a movie includes music, dialogue, sound effects, ambient noise, background noise and soundtracks.


EDITING TECHNIQUES
 

Scare Factor that include: 
 

  • Use Blur. A blurred background is a key factor in increasing the scare factor of your horror film. ... 

  • Focus On The Background. ... 

  • Use The Right Music. ... 

  • Keep The Monster Hidden. ... 

  • Add Special Effects. ... 

  • The Perfect Reaction Shot.

    Here is a few techniques that is used in horror films, Some of these techniques are used to show the storyline of the film and the other techniques is used to upset the storyline of the film to make the audience feel uneasy. Continuity editing, montage, and juxtaposition. Continuity editing is showing something as it happens. Montage takes clips from different scenes or movies and puts them together to create a new scene.

    CHARACTERS /STEREOTYPES 

    Horror films may incorporate incidents of physical violence and psychological terror; they may be studies of deformed, disturbed, psychotic, or evil characters; stories of terrifying monsters or malevolent animals; or mystery thrillers that use atmosphere to build suspenseTypical elements of a horror story include serial killers, otherworldly figures, and graphic violence, though these are not required! While the horror genre is closely related to thriller and suspense, there is a distinction among the three.

​

These are the most common stereotypes of characters in horror films:

  • The Harbinger. ... 
  • The Pawn. ... 
  • The Scholar. ... 
  • The Hunter. ... 
  • The Cop. ... 
  • The Final Girl. ... 
  • The Jock.

 

STOCK SITUATIONS 

​

The Hunter, The Cop, The Final Girl, The Jock, The Bad Girl, The Killer. 

ACTION 

6_Avavengers-poster.jpg

LOCATION 
Los Angeles sees a lot of action when it comes to filming, especially when it comes to filming, well, action movies. From 80s classics like "Commando" and "Beverly Hills Cop" to more modern features like "Iron Man" and "Transformers," the LA area has been home to some of cinema's biggest adrenaline-filled moments.Far and away the most popular location in the world for filming movies and television shows, Los Angeles has been the cultural center for the film industry since the Golden Age of Hollywood in the 1930s and 1940s.


 The location are important in action as there is many scene that need to be shown and as quick cuts will be used throughout the film , this helps show the location and the setting of the action that is being displayed on the screen.  

LIGHTING 

The lighting setup guides the eye to a specific actor, prop, or part of a scene. Lighting reflects the psychology of characters. The amount, size, color, and harshness of light surrounding a character can be adjusted to match their emotions. Lighting defines and supports the genre of the film.   
The two main categories of filmmaking light sources include artificial and natural light. Artificial lights can be either on-camera or off-camera, while natural light nearly always comes from an outside source such as the sun or a window.

COSTUME
 

Costumes are one of many tools the director has to tell the story. Costumes communicate the details of a character's personality to the audience, and help actors transform into new and believable people on screen.

Props 

 

  • vehicles - of all kinds, including cars, bikes, motorcycles, other motorised carriers
  • costume components - shoes, clothing, and accessories such as glasses, masks, cloaks, jewellery, medallions, bracelets, necklaces, helmets, gloves, watches, hats
  • ​
  • ​

A prop is any inanimate object that an actor interacts with in a film. There is a wide range of props that vary on how they are used and what they are used for. Props are bought, designed, and created by the property department (also called props department) which is led by the prop master.

​

  • Personal props – Objects worn or handled directly by the actors.

  • Set props – Furniture or oversized background items not built into the set.

  • Trim props – Set dressings that provide a polished and fully furnished look.

  • Breakaways – Special effect items designed to break upon impact.

​

NVC

​

The film demonstrates how to understand and engage conflicts with Nonviolent Communication (NVC) by describing facts, feelings and needs and asking for a specific action. NVC is a universal process you can use to solve conflicts and restore trust.

​

CAMERA TECHNQUES 

​

​

Extreme long shot

First up we have the extreme long shot. Also referred to as an extreme wide shot, it conveys contextualising information to the viewer about where the action in a scene is taking place or sets a character in their context. 

 Long shot

This generally shows the full length of any featured characters from the feet to the top of the head and is used to show a character in relation to their immediate surroundings.

Close-up

The close-up is often used to show a character from the top of the shoulders to the top of the head. It’s used for capturing a character’s facial expression, heightening emotions and building tension.  

 

High-angle

The shot below is at a high angle. Angles can use any of the framing types we’ve discussed above, but the camera must be positioned at an angle looking down at the subject. Generally, a high angle is used to make the subject within the frame seem small, isolated, vulnerable or less powerful.

 Low angle

The low angle can also be used in combination with any camera shot type, but the camera must be positioned down low at an angle looking up at the subject. Generally, a low angle is used to make the subject within the frame seem large, imposing, daunting or more powerful. 

​

 

                              TASK 2 : THEORY

                                    HORROR

Barthes theory :Semiotics 


Horror films are centered around the dark side of life, the forbidden and strange, unexplainable events. They deal with our most primal nature and it's fears: our vulnerability, nightmares, alienation, our terror of the unknown, fear of death and/or our fear of sexuality.

 
Horror movies use semiotics to build an identity for the characters with a specific type of signs and messages which can tell you about the character.

 

                         Todorov Theory: Narratology

This discusses the order of the narratives and how all narratives share a movement from equilibrium to another so horror movies uses this for when the movie is progressing and is changing it increases the suspense and more unexpected things to keep it interesting.

​

                       Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

This theory states that there are binary opposites in movies, in horror movies there are binary opposites between the villain, the victim and the hero.

 

                                    Neale Theory: Genre

This theory is about how all the media products have a repetition of generic codes and conventions that helps to differentiate a media product from another, for example the jump scares make horror movies different from actions movies.

​

​

                                             ACTION 

​

                                   Barthes Theory: Semiotics

1 of the things that Barthes discusses with this theory is in how some signs, images, words etc communicate different things in Action movies they use semiotics in stereotyping the heroes for example as you can see in this picture the heroe are usually men.

​

                                 Todorov Theory: Narratology

This discusses the order of the narratives and how all narratives share a movement from equilibrium to another.

​

                             Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

This theory states that there are binary opposites in movies,

In action movies the interesting thing that keeps the movie alive is the conflict and how strong is the reason of the conflict is between the villain and the heroe/victim and what is the conflict going to produce.

​

                                     Neale Theory: Genre

This theory is about how all the media products have a repetition of generic codes and conventions that helps to differentiate a media product from another.

​

                              ROMANCE 

​

                                  Barthes Theory: Semiotics

Usually in romance movies the structure is that they show 2 characters (normally strangers) and they will make them have maybe similar interests to connect deeper and feel identified. Individually they will show the past and interests of the characters for the audience to build a bond with a character.

 

                               Todorov Theory: Narratology

When it comes to the narratology of the movie they use what it works and what people enjoy this is why it hasn't really change but  what could be different is the reason of the disequilibrium. 

​

                          Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

In romance when it comes to binary opposites it could be what makes the couple break up for example in the series Lucifer the romance between the principal couple is that their attitudes, personality and hobbies are opposites.

​

                                Neale Theory: Genre

The codes and conventions in romance movies are also repetitive, we usually see high-key lighting because is a lighting that is happening when there are good emotions and in romance we see love and caring this are positive feelings that differentiates the genre from for example an action movie or a horror movie.

​

                           COMEDY

                     Barthes Theory: Semiotics

Comedy sometimes uses cultural jokes or stereotypical statements that are somehow seen funny or non offensive in society, for example the stereotype that people with glasses are smart or that latinos know how to dance.

                         Todorov Theory: Narratology

​

In comedy movies the theory of the narratology is more followed in order (equilibrium, disequilibrium and resolution. Usually in equilibrium is where all the jokes and the fun part and then afterwards things get more serious in the disequilibrium.

​

                         Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

​

This could be in a unstable family or in the case of the movie TED 2 there are conflict between friendships too.

​

                                 Neale Theory: Genre

This theory is about how all the media products have a repetition of generic codes and conventions that helps to differentiate a media product from another.

All of the comedy movies use wordplay however this can be hard to understand therefore is a resource that is used when is known that is going to work if it doesn't work the person or joke could come out as weird.

​

                         SCI-FI

                                 Barthes Theory: Semiotics

​

The flash of light in sci-fi means that something is about to arrive.

The colour blue is also very used in the genre because it is something perceived as rare in nature.

​

                              Todorov Theory: Narratology

This discusses the order of the narratives and how all narratives share a movement from equilibrium to another.

The narrative in the sci fi movies are quite repetitive we usually see how an association of scientists or the government itself find a something that is dangerous for the earth, they try to find solutions for the problem while there could also come up new problems while trying to find the solution and at the end they slowly discover how to survive to the disaster and the survivors stay alive.

​

                      Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

This theory states that there are binary opposites in movies.

Usually there could be like a sabotage inside the group of the scientists or the main protagonist that are trying to save the world

​

                                     Neale Theory: Genre

This theory is about how all the media products have a repetition of generic codes and conventions that helps to differentiate a media product from another.

This is quite similar to the semiotics theory things that characterise sci-fi films are spaceships, aliens

​

                           THRILLER 

​

                                    Barthes Theory: Semiotics

​

Thriller movies play a lot with creating emotions such as excitement, suspension, anxiety but theydont want to create fear and make people scared .

​

 

                                  Todorov Theory: Narratology

​

The narratology would also apply to this genre. 

Where there is an equilibrium (for example a couple of protagonists are in a park) disequilibrium (some crminial chases them and the criminal kidnaps them) recognition, attempt(they try to escape but there issues( resolution (the protagonists escape but at what cost)

 

                                Levi Strauss Theory: Structuralism

This theory states that there are binary opposites in movies.

This theory could apply as a protagonist that is the victim and someone is trying to save the victim so is the oppsite to the antagonist that wants something from the victim

​​​

                                         Neale Theory: Genre

This theory is about how all the media products have a repetition of generic codes and conventions that helps to differentiate a media product from another.

Thriller movies are characterised by feature criminals, evil men and women as the antagonists because has less supernatural elements, whereas in horror movies the antagonist are ghosts.

Research : Narrative 
TASK 3 -

Enigma Codes 

Murder mystery and detective dramas use enigma codes to slowly reveal the narrative, with key information needed to solve the case saved until near the end of the programme to create a thrilling conclusion.this narrative technique is used by mystery writers who want the reader to keep on guessing who committed the crime until the final reveal at the end of the story.

Linear

Linear media service means a media service provided by a media service provider for simultaneous viewing of or listening to programs on the basis of a program schedule.
A Linear is where a specific structure goes all through, from the start to begin without any type of disruption in a chronological flow. 

Non-Linear

Non-linear media is a form of audiovisual media that can be interacted with by the viewer, such as by selecting television shows to watch through a video on demand type service, by playing a video game, by clicking through a website, or by interacting through social media.A Non-linear is the opposite of linear, where a specific thing does not follow all the way through but has free movement to disrupt the chronological flow. 

Multi-strand 
a narrative category that contains more than one casual chain of events and by implication, multiple protagonists and antagonists. The various lines of action proceed in parallel direction, which then intersect and crisscross.A multi-strand Narrative is where there is more than one main character, with multiple plots shared out between the characters rather than just one. 

Serial narrative
focuses on key sites and technologies of popular seriality since the mid-nineteenth century and up to today: newspapers, comics, cinema, television, and digital communication. This is the story of the writers, ideas and reaction of his or her audience. 

Flexi narrative 
A narrative structure that combines aspects of the same serial or series. For example, whilst each episode may feature a self-contained narrative, character relationships may develop over the course of several episodes forming a wider story arc.Which makes the audience want to keep on watching and challenges the audience with twists and turns.

Episodic drama 

A drama series containing story-lines and developments that flow from episode to episode. This is when a narrative is shot in small chunks rather than creating one lengthy and slow build-up of tension, which often happens in chronological order. 


Unrestricted narrative 

With unrestricted narration, also called omniscience, the audience knows more than the characters in the film. The narrator is able to deliver additional details for the audience. Which causes them to feel as if they could “help” the character if only the two could speak.This is when the audience knows more than the character. Which is done to create suspense and tension.

Restricted narrative

Providing a view from the perspective of a single character. For example, restricted narration reveals information to the audience only as a specific character learns of it.This is when the audience is only seeing the point of view of a single character, Making the audience know only what the character knows and nothing more. 

LAA: CORE ASSESSMENT 

HORROR - The Birch 

In this short film , many different conventions are used to portray horror to the audience. 
Firstly , we are introduced to the main character with a disequilibrium , the disequilibrium is shown as a  unbalanced disruption , this is shown by a mid close up off the bottom half of the character. The character is covered in blood while holding a bloody knife, this starts the film with an unbalanced start . The use of score has created a dramatic effect to make the audience feel frighted about what could happen next but , this could intrigue the audience to continue watching. A  blackout is then shown to creative tension for the audience. A man is then shown walking in the woods holding a book, the use of the wide angle is to tell the audience where it is being set, the sound technique behind the action is a narrator speaking with a scary voice , this is to give the audience suspense as they don't know what could happen next.  A wide angle and slow-motion is used to capture the charm her walking towards the camera , the camera is blurred at first but as the character walks towards the camera , the camera is then focused up. Hand held was used to capture the section of the short film , this is to create realism toward the audience. Using a close up shot it is used to catch the characters hands to show what action is taking place. behind this shot is silence as silence create tension and suspension. The mid shot is shown , the camera is first blurred to where the audience can't see the character clearly but , as the character is walking towards the camera the camera angle and the focus changes to a medium close up so the audience can see the facial expression on the character. With this a voiceover is used to create suspension for the audience and Also help give information to the audience so that the story is easy to understand
An over he shoulder shot is hen shown the the audience, this shot could be used to grab a conversation or to show the audience what is focused on the main character. it is shown that the character is holding sticks and a book , this is a prop shown to the audience for them to understand what the action about. The camera focuses tightly on both the object in his and and the book shown. From the beginning of the short film to 0.38 seconds is showing part of the disequilibrium. The use of the disequilibrium is to make the audience start thinking what will happen at the end. This also give a slight foreshadowing information to the audience to lead them on. At 0:37 a two shot is shown with a pull focus, two character in-front of the camera are out of focused as behind the characters are in focus.This could lead that the main attention should be behind the two characters that are blurred.In this scene the motion has been slowed down. This could mean that an event is about to take place and with the camera being slowed down it is easier to see the action. A mid shot presents the main character walking and an held hand angle to create realism. the NVC shown on the main characters face connotes that he is upset or worried about something. The camera shot then changes to a wide two shot behind the main character to show where the character is walking towards, the camera changes to a tight two shot of a protagonist provoking the antagonist. A close up of the main characters NVC connotes that he is scared. With this the camera angles quick cuts to a tilting angle that slows pans down to a wide low angle this is another shot to show the action for the audience to stay focused, next, a low angle shows the protagonist preceding to punch the antagonist in the face with threaten words , the camera quick cuts to the antagonist in fear. From 0:13 - 0:16 Jumps cuts to a different location showing three quick cut shots, the sound behind the three quick cut shots of trees, blood etc , shows diegetic sound of the trees and blood dripping. This creates a sense of realism for the audience. Using a hand held angle shows a wide shot of the main character in a different location. The sound behind this shot connotes darkness for the audience. The camera angle then jump cuts to an over the shoulder shot of the main character. The NVC from the main character connotes that he is in distressed, the camera cuts to a mid shot of an elderly women handing a book over to the main character, a close up is focused on the book in the main characters hands, the camera then quick cuts to a two shot of both characters in the frame , this shows the interaction between the two characters. A wide shot has been showed showing the two characters together, also helps the audience seen any action that might take place. As the main character sits closer to the elderly women and begin to interact with each other, the camera presents an over the shoulder shot of the two characters talking, the camera then cuts to a close up off the book while the main character turns the pages. As the elderly women says her last words to the main charcater 'Forest'. The scene changes to a forest, with a wide angle of the main character facing the object that the elderly women said to look out for. A quick cut cuts to a mid shot of the protagonist walking in the same surrounding of the main character, the protagonist NVC contest that he is angry and furious, the represent the character to be a bad person in the short film. This could help show the audience Good VS Bad , the represents Levi Strauss Theory.  A close up of the protagonist is presented to the camera , the NVC that's shown connotes him as aggressive, this part of the scene is slowed down to show the audience the facial expression that has been displayed to the camera. The camera then cuts to an establishing shot to show another view of the scenery that the main character is placed, with the shot presents an over the shoulder of the main character holding the book with the object that matches the picture, the main character repeats the words that is in the book, while reading the message the camera changes back to the establishing shot as the protagonist walks into the frame. Next as the main character continues to repeat the message, a Diegetic intense sound was heard by the main character. The protagonist then shouted at the antagonist to grab his attention as the protagonist started to run towards the main character, a low angle is shown as the antagonist falls onto the floor, as the main character stands up the protagonist pushes him onto a tree. this shows the action that is portrayed. the protagonist then puts a knife at the antagonist neck , showing a two shot of the two characters blurred out is a black figure that looks like a tall tree women, behind this the sound that is used has a animal growl effect, this could orate to the audience that they is something more powerful about to approach the action. The camera then changes to a close up of the leaves moving through the floor towards the two characters.
