Genre: Comedy and Action


 Comedy:

Comedy is one of our favorite genres to watch because it is always so entertaining if done correctly. A popular lighting example is 3-point lighting since it is used as a spotlight when the camera is focusing on one person. High angle shots are used to look over/on top of someone often when they are laying on the floor. The person is probably the punchline of a joke. The Mise-en-Scene is often used to portray stereotypes in comedy movies. The genre includes many elements such as exaggeration, surprise, sarcasm, and repetition. These can usually be seen in many other genres too, because most films usually have at least one punchline. We know that if we were making a full movie, we would want to include a joke in it. We may try to include one in our opening sequence as well. Tying in some comde elements are important in creating an interesting and engaging production. 

Action:

Action movies are usually fast-paced and suspenseful. They keep their audiences on the edge of their seat, but not in the same way mystery movies do. Mise-en-scene is an extremely important part of action movies. Most superhero movies are a part of this genre, and they’re costumes are often what makes the film. The props as well. What would Captain America be without his shield? They are high-energy productions and have many different elements to create the finished piece. There are a lot of stunts, chasing, explosions, fights, and destructive disasters. This is what sets it apart from other genres. You never know when something is going to break out and surprise everyone. There is something for everyone to enjoy in an action movie.

Comparing 9, the short, and 9, the full-length movie

Image
  We started off first with watching the short film,9. It was only about 10 minutes long and there was no dialogue during it. When I first watched the film, I thought that there would be some dialogue. Doing, or having would increase the quality of this short film greatly. Not only would it make it better, but easier to understand what the plot is. There were many times throughout this short film where I didn't know what was happening. I didn't know what was going on or the plot throughout the whole film. It was hard to follow without any dialogue.I  had to resort to watching the characters' body language in order to understand what was happening. Maybe the little noises the characters made for each emotion would have been better. But that isn't very easy when they're little rag dolls. If it had this dialogue it would be easier to understand, but they would also be able to add lots more. Dialogue is a major contribution in films. Without it, they can almost seem pla...

I am Karli Norkin, I am in grade 11, and l ast year  I took part  in  as  level Media studies.  Thanks to a lot of hard work and devotion  I  passed and am  now in A level Media studies.  I took the year  to learn the vocabulary and key wording I needed to succeed in the class. I also learned the best ways to film and edit over all my projects.  I started with my commercial. This project was the beginning of my leaning towards filming. This opened me up to new angles and lighting to use.  After the commercial I knew how to create a film overall. The best ways to show the emotions of the  characters , or the best w ay to sell an object. After the commercial I made a music video that was longer and more complex than the commercial.  This complexified my knowledge of  filming and  writing plots. I used more of my vocabular y  tha t  I was  taught  before during this project.  I fel...
