Look & Feel

Everything we do visually with this film needs to look great, cinematically beautiful, and with a beautiful premium gloss across it, like a sequence out of a high end feature film rather than a commercial, to raise the production value. Saturated colours, rich textures and an articulated visual language of shots and angles that keep us close to the action along with underlining the human side of the characters reactions to make it as colourful as possible; where everything feels, positive and glowing in a ‘hyper-real’ way, and every new angle feels spectacular and exciting.

For this to be achieved, we’ll rely heavily on natural sunlight, which we will hopefully be blessed with due to the location. Warm, bright flares flooding

    Director D.W. Griffith employs a variety of innovative filmmaking techniques, under the categories of mise-en-scene, cinematography and editing, to tell his narrative in Death’s Marathon.

    The movie Crash is a multidimensional film set in the Los Angeles metropolitan area and exhibits the various cultures living in one city and how these multiple cultures interact.

Cultural Identity and Bias One of the best examples of cultural identity and race in this film is through the character Jean, played by Sandra Bullock.

    Hollywood’s Commercial Aesthetic: Commercial aesthetic can be thought of in the context of turning pleasure into a product we can buy-this includes films. Maltby and Craven (1995) argue that films are made up of many different elements, such as a script, story, director and so on. They say these elements are then intertwined together by producers and production companies to satisfy the current needs and wishes of consumers at a given point in time. Storytelling style is an important part of achieving the commercial aesthetic, and Hollywood responds to what audiences want by taking a more ‘show’ rather than ‘tell’ approach (Maltby 469). The major features of Hollywood narrative style are clarity, simplicity,…

    The film, Crash, written and directed by Paul Haggis, tells the story of different people and the issues that they face regarding their race. The films main aspect was to look at racial profiling, as well as, the stereotypes that occur with every race. Throughout the movie there remains the constant issue of being able to trust people of different races and how they do not seem to be able to accomplish it. Throughout the movie, the audience constantly sees issues that these people face in their everyday lives. Although I have no experience with racial injustice, I find Crash to have successfully shown racism in the way that people prove to be excessive and insensitive to the subject matter.…
