RUN - Main task draft 1

This is our first published draft of our main task. there are still things we need to add in to it and a few things we need to edit out. From this we can gain more feedback and improve on a lot more of the main task.

Sound, lighting and editing research

Sound

Diegetic: sound that is heard on and off of the screen such as characters voices. Originated from the word Diegesis which is also to do with film and media.

Non-diegetic: sounds that aren’t made whilst filming but are added in for extra effect.

Synchronous sound: sound that is matched to scenes recording in a movie e.g. the sound of footsteps to someone walking.

Asynchronous sound: match the action being performed but aren’t in perfect sync such as background music to create tension within a scene.

Crescendo: the build-up of sound to suggest that something is about to happen.

Diminuendo: When the sound dies down to suggest the threat or important scene is over.

Sforzando: a short, sharp, loud noise to emphasis shock or fear.

Lighting

Three point lighting: consists of 3 types of lighting – key, fill and backlight. Key aims directly at subject, fill is a little softer and placed opposite the key light, back shines behind the subject or object for extra effect.

Fill light: to reduce the contrast in a film – to make shadows lighter or darker.

Key light: is two parts low and high key. High key is usually used in comedies, and musicals to enhance the sense of liveliness, low key lighting is often used in horrors and thrillers to portray a shadow effect.

Top lighting: when the upper areas of the subject/ object are lit up.

Under lighting: when the light is directly under the key focus such as a persons face.

Editing

Continuity editing: cutting shots to tell the story in a continuous flow.

Montage: giving information in a compressed form

Fade: the shot fades into a black screen when the next scene appears

Cross fade: the current shot flows straight into the next

Shot reverse shot: when two people are having a conversation and it goes from person 1, to 2 to 1 again

Eye line match: when the character is looking at something and the next shot looks at exactly what they were looking at.

Cross cutting: when two scenes are happening at the same place maybe from different points of view and the camera switches between them both.

Pace: 3 types slow which suggests it’s calm, and short clips. Medium – normal and comfortable, fast – intensity, thrill or excitement.

Straight cutting: to show realism in conversations

Wipe: often showing new day or location

Flash: to show flash backs or flash forwards

Black and white effect: often used in memory or passing

Blur: to show un-clarity or confusion
