Post 10- Cinematography creating a storyboard from the Gold Rush.

-
In class, we were given a short snippet of a scene from the Gold Rush, a Charlie Chaplin movie from the Silent Era. We created a story board and then in pairs we recreated the scene we looked at.
 For the task we had to recreate a scene from the Gold Rush, we looked at the scene where Charlie Chaplin has a woman round his house when it is snowing and her friends come in and start teasing her about the flower and picture of her which they found when Charlie had left the room.

We had to include all of the timings in the storyboard, and we tried to copy them when actually filming it. We used five actors. Three playing the womans friends, myself playing the woman and our friend Eddie playing Charlie Chaplin. We used the drama room as our set and used the staging to recreate the bed.                                                                           This is the final video:

    This is really good Lucy. You and your group have worked very hard on producing excellent storyboards with detail in the framing which clearly helped you in the filming.

This is the logo that what designed for Star Productions: After discovering that it was taken, we chose a different name and settled with "Project Illusion". This is the current logo for our production company: The reason for this design is based upon the "Illusion" part of our name, with the triangle being the "Infinity Triangle", a common optical illusion.

Ferris Bueller’s day off- Car crash scene In Ferris Bueller’s day off Ferris manages to convince his best friend Cameron to take his father’s Lamborghini out, his most prized possession and one of only one hundred and twenty models made. The skiving teenagers manage to keep it safe and pristine all day however they unintentionally build up over 3000 miles on it which Cameron was sure his father would notice. After Ferris came up with what he thought an immaculate idea, the three teenagers started to run the vehicle backwards in hope that the miles would come off. Unfortunately, this did it not turn out as successful as Ferris would have hoped. Leading to Cameron furiously talking about this father and how he pushes him around.   The character movement in this scene is very significant.

Post 40- Analysing the micro elements in a scene from 'The 400 Blows'

Mise-en-scene: Costume: In this scene from 'The 400 Blows,' Antoine Doinel is wearing a black coat, black trousers and a white shirt.  At the beginning of the scene, he is playing football at school, where all of the other boys are wearing a black coat, black trousers and a white shirt, showing how this may be their uniform when they are playing football.  By having all the characters in this scene wearing the same clothing it represents how Antoine belongs to something, yet as he is running away signifies how he wants to break away from it, perhaps as he wants to be his own person and break away from the connotations with being a young person as throughout the rest of the film he is labelled as a 'no good' boy who sets out to cause trouble.  Makeup: Neutral makeup is worn in this scene.  Props: In this scene, there are numerous road signs as Antoine is running away, perhaps being a representation of him getting further and further away.  As we
