The Bling Ring Film Analysis
In The Bling Ring movie, from 19:55th minute to 21:35th minute, I identify two important elements of cinematography, the exposure and the speed of motion. These two elements combined allow spectators to feel the lifestyle which Marc was talking about. From 19:55th minute, Marc is underexpose, while he is laying on his bed. His image is surrounding with darkness, while his face is a little exposed to the light. That exposure is used to show a night time, where Marc was thinking about his passed day activities and we can read in his facial expression how he was happy with the new life he starts with Rebecca. After a while, at 20th minute, the camera moves to show Rebecca who was standing with her friends when Marc comes to meet her. Rebecca and

    An important aspect of the film is that characters from both sides of the yard trespass to each other´s side. As described previously, Lisa and Stella go to the yard to discover what is in the box Throwald burry and this way Lisa becomes part of Jefferies´ fantasy. On the other hand, Thorwald at the end goes to Jeff´s apartment, it could be said that he “goes out of the screen” is materialized in reality. Thorwald assaults Jefferies; he is aggressive and tries to kill him (Stam & Pearson, 203). This could show the aggressive way in which art and the story shocks the audience by not only showing a theme about murder but by leading into a behavior that in real life wouldn´t be performed such as spying on other people, but at the end of the film…

This murder was at the hands of a troubled 16 year old, David Harris, who shot a man from inside a stolen Mercury Comet with a stolen .22 pistol. Randall Adams, innocent, and wrongly accused of being in the passenger seat of Harris’ stolen car, was blamed as the killer of police officer Robert Wood on the late November evening in Dallas, Texas.

    While researching on the different techniques applied on previous notable films created by distinguished filmmakers, I learned that they all similarly applied their understanding of human perception into the creation of their craft. To give a better point of comparison among the films cited in this section, all of the movies presented below share a similar technique: the uninterrupted shot. This method was preferred by this researcher in order to identify the differences in styles that were incorporated by each director in presenting his version of the uninterrupted shot. In the 1980 film ¬of Stanley Kubrick entitled The Shining, a long uninterrupted shot of the young boy Danny was shown as he explored the endless hallways of the…

    "What the Bleep Do We Know", is a fascinating documentary film that utilizes fictional story lines, computer animation and discussions by several scientists and philosophers to present a viewpoint of the physical universe and human life within it, with connections to neuroscience and quantum physics. The general idea was that since quantum mechanics supposedly says that there isn't one reality, but an infinite number of possibilities, one just has to be enlightened to an awareness of this, and then you can make whatever you want, happen. Within the plot, the main character of the movie (played by Marlee Matlin) essentially was educated of amazing facts about quantum physics, in which helps her deal with her anxiety attacks, bad body image and…

    He uses the camera as Jefferies’ point of view frequently. We are put into the place of Jefferies through these point of view shots, panning from apartment to apartment and viewing through binoculars and his camera lens. This gets us familiar with the neighbors and causes us to identify with them. You feel like part of the neighborhood and know the personality and lifestyle of each person. This ability to put ourselves in Jefferies’ place also helps create suspense. We feel as if the camera is our own eyes so when Thorwald, the man suspected of murder, disappears from his apartment at the end of the film and walks into Jefferies’ room we feel as if we are the ones in danger. The use of lighting in this scene is also very compelling as the shadows are darker than the other times when the lights in the apartment are off. This allows Jefferies’ to hide completely in the shadows where we just see his silhouette and Thorwald’s eyes are the only part of his face lit, not allowing you to look anywhere else. The use of the orange circle after the flash bulb created by Jefferies is an interesting way for us to get Thorwald’s perspective.…

    “Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.” This is a quote from Martin Luther King Jr that can be applied in our personal lives as well as in the Civil Rights Movement. In responding to hatred with more hate, nothing will change until using a peaceful way. Civil Rights activities could not meet violence by using violence. Protesters would have to protest peacefully and inspire others by using their peaceful actions to become truly free. The main stereotype in American popular culture is black discrimination which has always been a major concern in American history. Therefore, I chose “Within…

    In the movie of ‘The Outsiders’, there were a lot of camera movements. At the beginning of the film, the music lyrics restate the word gold, the opening tittles in gold and a golden sun. The first shot establishes the setting of the entire setting. The low angle of the camera makes the story seem like a very personal matter that the audience is nosily watching. Then it quickly turns to the Socs, getting back to their car, and pans quickly back to Johnny and Pony. Then, it zooms in on Pony, to show that he is the main character. For example, there were a lot of close-ups. There was a close up of Johnny’s hand on the knife. The effect it had was that kill someone, so the knife symbolized killing. There was also a close up of Bob’s rings. If someone is watching the film for the first time and they see Johnny’s bruises, they would be wondering why he has those bruises on his face. Since they know that Bob is their enemy, so they would then know that it was Bob’s rings that caused the bruises on Johnny’s face. After Johnny ran up to Bob with violence, the screen was red. The red screen was actually blood and blood signifies violence and death. There was also a view of Bob’s body. First they gave a downward view of his body then there was a real close up of his body. We could see that he had blood on his body and he was not moving, so it meant that he was dead.…
