Thums Up

just as they did David in that chest. This is a secret performance only for their eyes. It’s no doubt that Hitchcock’s use of lighting for this scene is supposed to parallel their crime with their sexuality. Once the act is committed we have a close up shot of them face to face, in where they are practically inches away from each other. In this frame, the focus is both of them; the lighting is completely focused on their faces and their proximity, everything behind them is dark. Hitchcock…

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 (2015), demonstrative stand-ups should…

knew. As I was warming up Coach Harsin came up to me and said,”How are you feeling? You loose and relaxed?” I told her I was ready, but my hip was still tight. She just said it was probably nerves and I agreed, that was very likely today. As the first heat started, I was picturing myself running my best race yet. Then the second heat went. Then it was showtime. As I was walking to my lane, I looked to the infield to Coach Harsin she gave me the thumbs up. Then I looked up to the stands to my…

few people to stand up in succession. This paragraph is done with a close-up shot. When the children answer the teacher questions, shot two switches to Janet until the teacher called out her name. Janet is usually low head embodies the state of her embarrassment and unprepared. She has the explosive yellow hair, face with besmirch, also wearing the sweater looks dirty. The teacher with a steel drum walked beside Janet, let everybody vomit chewing gum. This is a still use close-up lens, but also…

In fact, all of the protagonists are aware of their unhappiness from the beginning but show different degrees of fighting, denying or covering it up. Lester’s conscious resistance, for instance, increases from the beginning to the end of the film, whereas Frank’s and Brandon’s change develop less gradually. While one can observe this one significant setback in Frank’s journey induced by a safety…

Self-Actualization: For Colored Girls “I found God in myself and I loved her, I loved her fiercely.” (Shange) For Colored Girls is based from a play with poems written by author Ntozake Shange called, For Colored Girls Who Have Considered Suicide When the Rainbow isn’t Enuf, describing the life of eight women in New York who face tremendous crisis and heartbreaks. Each woman in this film represents a character/color and a poem from this play. From abuse, secret affairs and abortion, to deceit…

club, at home, in a restaurant etc. However, their actions are all the same: dependency on the phone. It gives the audience the feeling that the environment moves around the phone; and with the rapid changing pace, it forces the viewer to try and keep up. With the use of editing and cinematography, the phone is displayed as the centre of attention at all times. The director of the commercial was very precise on the fast-paced nature of the advert. The shifting between frames - never lasting…

for Mr. Darcy. Through the use of diegetic sounds, the scene will give the audience a glimpse of the inner thoughts of Elizabeth and how her body language portrays it. Hints of the sun can be seen peeking behind the clouds, and the sun begins to light up the setting when Jane enters. This represents the joy that Jane has over her…

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…

appreciation. As the son grew older, his goodbyes became less and less affectionate. The author’s message about the mother was to never give up on your child, no matter how stubborn he/she may be. Considering kindergarten, the mother relentlessly waved to his son before leaving to school. 2. Yes I do believe that, most parents feel this way when their children are growing up through the time they go off to college and eventually have a life of their own. I feel this way because many parents…
