Cinematography video feedback and learner response

1) Type up your feedback/comments from your teacher.

*Hugely entertaining, great use of sound, was 1 minute long for brief- lots of credit here.
*Major EBI is thev labels- quite a few not quite right (medium/ close-up e.g.) which is a good lesson in cinematography.
*Despite this, I really enjoyed the production! 

2) Type up your feedback from fellow students.

*Good editing
EBI
*It was too dark to see
*At the end, it was a closeup shot instead of a extreme closeup
*Couldn't see some shots


4) Learner response: think about what you learned about cinematography making the video and also watching others. What will you do differently when you start the coursework in the summer? What tips or tricks have you learned from others that you can use next time? Are there any specific aspects of camerawork that you need to revise or practice?

Next time, what I will do differently is revise my camera shots and angles in more great detail so that in the Summer when the when the brief comes out I won't lose any marks for making minor mistakes such as camera shots or angles. What tips I have learnt from this lesson on cinematography is on how to film better and more easier with the camera angles.

  1) Find a distinctive  still image  and write an analysis of the mise-en-scene. Use each of the aspects you've learned in the lesson. The use of the high key lighting around Tom Cruise in this image connotes that the room he is in is all high tech and futuristic cause of how brightly lit the room is. Furthermore, the use of him wearing all black connotes that he's doing something sneaky and stealthy as the colour black usually shows mystery or death. The use of the wide shot also shows the whole background and the body placement that Tom Cruise is in which shows him balancing his weight from off the floor with a rope holding him up from the floor which could connote in this image an intense moment in time. The use of the juxtaposition between the room being white and Tom Cruise wearing black makes him look in the image more sharper which can show that everyone's eyes should be on him and what he's doing.  2) Find  TWO  film or TV extracts on YouTube from ...
