Reshoots

Reshoots
Through filming the opening scene and the introduction to the characters, I realised that I would need to come back and reshoot certain scenes or shots. After watching the clips back, I knew that I could experiment more with lighting and different lenses to achieve a far more cinematic look to my final piece. For example, the opening shot of Ryan putting in his earphone has been improved drastically through a single reshoot. The improved shot shows more Bokeh and is more vibrant in colour than the previous shot. I also slowed this clip down to really let the audience take in the shot. 



Through further reshoots, my main aim was to make each individual shot flow far better with one another as well as move my perspective to see if I could gain a more professional appearance to the film.

These reshoots also offered me the chance to progress the story further, as I am constantly coming up with new ideas throughout shooting, to push the film further until its climax. For example, certain shots that I know could be reversed in Premiere Pro to achieve a certain effect, specific pieces of dialogue, and shot types that I had not thought of before.

Active/Passive Spectatorship

How far does Inception and Blade Runner demonstrate a constant shift between passive and active spectatorship? Both Inception and Blade Runner were not created with the passive spectator in mind. These films throw twists and a large variety of information at the audience that some may not understand in one run through of the film. Because of these two different kinds of spectators, the films have an extremely diverse set of opinions. As an auteur, Christopher Nolan constantly bends time and uses a peculiar layout for storytelling. As some of his films do not pan out in the original ‘beginning, middle, end’ structure, ‘Inception’ follows this trend to a certain degree. The movie-epic spans across several different dream layers and tends to bounce back and forth. However, the film itself is a very ‘spoon-fed’ experience as details to this world are thrown at the audience from the beginning as the basic plot starts to emerge. The recognition of Nolan’s films has always been achie

Evaluative Analysis

Evaluative Analysis Ethan Garvie My original intent for my project is to create a post apocalyptic thriller following the point of view of a young survivor, displaying his own personal thoughts in the wasteland. This will be achieved through a film rather than a screenplay as I believe I am able to work far better through moving image rather than writing a script and a storyboard. I will also be focusing on incorporating 'A narrative which establishes and develops a single character' as my brief. I want to improve upon sequences taken as inspiration from previous short films by using several different lenses (such as my wide lens and 50 mm for my NIKON D3200) and a variety of perspectives such as high shots, low shots, and continuous tracking shots to tell an interesting and mysterious narrative. I will accomplish this by relying on visual storytelling through relevant mise-en-scene such as necessary props and performance of my actors. The story shall focus on a teen
