Shrek
Don’t judge a book by its cover

I find the character Shrek from the movie Shrek a really neglected character, as and ogre, the audience and the village people in the movie are pruned to believing he’s a bad, discussing, mean and emotion less beast, but throughout the story he begins to change our negative aspect of him into good aspects.

Even though the village people in the place Shrek lives in believe he is an ugly and cruel beast, Shrek still proved to them he isn’t that bad in the end. A close up shot of Shrek’s face, when he discovers that there might be something wrong with donkey, can really show us how surprised he was, his sudden expression of his jaw dropping and his eyes opening in shock, then a cut to where he starts touching donkey to try find where the problem is, can really depict his care and emotion he has for his pers. This shows us how much care he really has for the friends and not the selfish beast we thought he was in the beginning of the story.

    Jaws Sound Analysis

    • 1338 Words
    • 6 Pages

    Jaws has been memorable since its release in 1975, but most of its success is due to the magic of editing, which helped hide mechanical defects of production while heightening suspense, and its iconic music, both of which cemented Jaws’ position as a blockbuster. Though the concept of the titular creature becomes obvious shortly after the film beings, the crazily large man eating shark remains mostly unseen throughout the film. Unfortunately, the technology was not available to construct a large realistic shark, so rather than come off looking absurdly unrealistic, the choice was made to leave the image of the shark up to the editors, who were left with horrible raw footage of a floating barge, and transformed it into something the viewers were genuinely afraid of.…

    Music in film can have many purposes. It can change the mood of the audience, alert them to danger, or even be used to give exposition of the story to the audience. The latter, along with its variation, such as a monologue delivered in song, are used to create musicals--a genre used by Disney since its very beginning. For this journal I watched Disney’s Moana to see how it used music to move the plot, and influence its audience.…
