Key Scene from a British Film

Key Scene from a British Film Evaluation:   Key Scene from a British Film (AS Coursework)   How does your film opening conform to the conventions of professional film openings?     My film opening conforms to the conventions of professional film openings through the use of still shots and a montage effect. This is conveyed in the opening of “The Kings Speech”. This helps the audience gather the information from each part of the montage and helps them, to understand where the film is set and begin to see what the narrative may be. My film does however develop on the opening from “The kings speech” which that the target audience is different as my target audience is younger as my film has a horror twist but still conforms to the convention of a big budget British film like “The Kings Speech”. Whereas “The Kings Speech” target audience is much more compact I believe that from the opening scene “The King’s Speech” is much more of an older spec...

Cinematography in The Truman Show

Cinematography in the Truman Show  The scene I will be using to show cinematography in the Truman show is the Do something scene with Truman and his “Wife”. Straight away a medium shot is used to create a sense of relaxation between the two characters. This allows the viewers to analyse how Truman’s “Wife” is acting and the character that she is playing. So the medium shot helps to show a relaxation between the two people. It helps to make the film feel natural and comfortable and Truman won’t notice what is happening as there is hidden cameras everywhere.   The second type of camera shot used is a two shot which has been used to show the interaction of Truman and his “Wife”. It helps to show a relaxed nature between both of them and there familiar relationship. The next shot is an extreme close up that is zooming in on Truman’s “Wife” as she is advertising the “Mococa” This type of shot helps to show a massive change between what is real a...
