Mug shot

Deconstruction of Koyaanisqatsi (Godfrey Reggio, 1983) by Natalie Bakeer Koyaansiqatsi is paced and sequenced in an interesting manner. The way the shots are sequenced, affect how people think and feel about the film. The pace of the shots, along with the powerful score, by Phillip Glass, determine the feelings viewers get as they watch it. Sometimes Reggio decided what to shoot only after Glass came up with the music that would end up energizing Reggio’s films. Reggio chose to shoot unscripted…

through to try and escape. I liked the extreme long shot of Andy crawling towards the camera, through the hole he made. You could really see his facial expression and the struggle on his face, as he made his way through the hole. It was a really good choice made by Stephen King, when he chose to have an extreme long shot of the prison with the diegetic sounds of lightening and rain in the background. My favourite part of this scene would be the long shot of Andy struggling to run through the…

EXERCISE 1 As Wenger and Potter (2015) assert, “stand-ups can serve several functions, so it’s important to know in advance what you’re trying to accomplish with an on-camera segment” (p. 284). Personally, I would need to prepare myself thoroughly and conduct some research of my own to learn more about the topic at hand. My goal as a reporter is to establish credibility on the subject and be able to project confidence to the audience (Wenger and Potter, 2015). According to Wenger and Potter…

the printed ad you don’t see the lower part of the body compared to here you see the full body. In a long shot, with mysterious music, the model is in a big luxurious building running around as if she was exploring it when she sees two enormous mirrors. She’s wearing the same clothes and a short skirt. She drops her pink jacket and gets closer to the mirror. The camera closes in to a medium shot when she touches the mirror. The music tone changes as if she’s done something wrong. The mirror…

come over and she cooks for him. She agrees and allows him to come over for dinner not knowing his motive for doing so. In this scene (53:31-57:46) she is taken advantage of and raped by this man. During this scene, there is continuity editing, as two shot are being combined to make this one scene. While she is being raped the scene switches back and forth to Jo and her husband Carl at an opera show and both scenes end at the same time. There is also a point where the camera is on the clock as…

The film that I have chosen to analyze is Lessons of Darkness by Werner Herzog. I chose this film because I really enjoy Herzog’s film style, and I also enjoy how he uses specific shots and scenes to portray how he is against the gruesome nature of war and attacks. In this film, I have chosen two sequences where I believe that Herzog is trying to get his point across of the violence that come from war. For example, as Herzog uses the first sequence of the birds, to the bones of the dead, to the…

The conception of the ancient struggle of man versus nature has been heavily warped in the modern world. From a contemporary standpoint it is difficult to think passively of the environment. In the light of the impending crisis of global warming and the changes associated with it, it is easy to think of the environment as both a victim and an agent of retribution: the continuously more common occurrences of dramatic weather and toxic surroundings serving as a condemning consequence of humanity’s…
