·      Suitable set

·      Natural lighting

 

Like

·      Eye level shot because it helps the audience understand what the character is looking at

·      Soundtrack because it helps the audience get a vibe of what they are watching

·      Dialogue because it helps convey added knowledge to a scene

·      Incidental music because it provides a noticeable mood shit from one scene to another

·      The costumes the fit current times help the audience understand when the movie takes place, along with help from the setting of the movie

 

Dislikes

·      Dramatic acting is over the top and sometimes doesn’t fit the scene, and if it does fit, is overall too fake

·      Voice over is cheesy and could’ve been done better

·      The clothing did help covey the time period but they were overall things most real teenagers wouldn’t wear

  Our group will be doing a Nike commercial. Typically these commercials follow multiple people ranging from average joes to famous athletes partaking in some physical activity. The costumes they wear are Nike branded apparel whether it be shorts, windbreakers, tennis shoes, sports bras, or headbands. Many of the props used were sporting equipment, specifically basketballs, footballs, soccer balls, towels, water bottles, or gloves.  Almost always the actors are fit and drenched in sweat or more accurately spritzed with water right before the shot was taken. It's almost mandatory for a Nike commercial to have a slogan at either the start or beginning with their most iconic one being “Just Do It” The theme throughout these commercials are fast pace action with exhilarating music to make the audience excited and motivate them to get out there and “Just Do It” Nike commercials connect to the masses by showing world-class athletes or famous figures using the product that the averag...

Title Research: Fast Times at Ridgemont High

 How many titles are displayed during the opening sequences to the film? Which Ones? In total there were 14 different title cards in the title sequence. The first one was the production company for the movie which was a Refugee Films Production. The next few were all of the main actors in the movie. And similar to other title sequences, following this was the most important production crew members including the production composer, editor, and designer. Lastly, was the executive producer ending with the directors title card. What connotations do the images carry? The images in the title sequence specifically show high schoolers all across the mall doing different things. But what they have in common is that they’re all having fun. This sets up the movie having several different plots that all take place at the same time and place but don’t intertwine with each other much. How is genre reinforced through symbolic and technical codes from the outset? Like previously stated, the backg...
