Contrapuntal Sound


Dead-pool: In this we can see contrapuntal sound being used as it is not a good time to be using the music because the hero being dead pool has just been stabbed in the head. However, to go with the music they added in fuzzy characters which gives the clip the a humored look to it but the fact of the matter is that they are not in a happy position form the mise-en-scene because the heroin is being thrown around in addition to this the women charter swore at the hero which could be a suggestion that the two have fallen out.

Lighting


Picture 1: From the smoke it straight away shows sings of Film nior which is why they are using less light but as they still want to give it that dark look by adding shadows to the image they would only use back lighting and that would be the only one being pointed at the key therefore this is a low key lighting because them objective being shown and emphasized on is the the smoke as it is more brighter than the actual actor as this stands out more it will be automatically be the one to look at.    
Picture 2: Firstly, from the image it is certainly and obviously very dark this in image also in the image you can also see a filter light being pointed directly behind the character in this scene this filter light is giving it that effect of being so dark as you not see much because of the natural lighting that is put off as the only light is a filter one it shows it is using low key lighting.

Picture 3:This image is showing a contrast of Light and also shadow which is a suggestion of using both high and low key lighting however because they are fully visible it is low as they are using a filter to make a shadow on the female character which therefore means they have also used high key to make a contrast.

Mise-en-scene blog task

Image result for muhammad ali still image

 Muhammad Ali versus Cassius Clay: Firstly this is a image taken at a early stage of camera work as seen from the way the picture is taken it is in black and white. From the way the the fighters are placed it is very noticeable that Muhammad Ali has the grater advantage. Ali was well known for his fast reaction times in the ring. The facial expression on Ali's face signify's that he is not fond of being punched. From the photo it is clear that they are in a match of boxing this can be analysed by the clothing and also the gloves worn by both opponents. At a small glimpse you may notice the lime light is being pointed on Muhammad Ali's which could be a suggestion of popularity or could also be a code to imprint that "he is a the best ever"       






We Kill The Old way: From the trailer of this film i can first of all can that it has violence this because of the title contains the word kill which could be suggestion for violence through the whole film. Furthermore from the props used in the in the trailer could be a suggestion of gang violence but in addition to this from the title of the of film it could be a suggestion of new vs old. My meaning of new vs old meaning of old gangs versus new gangs this be seen by the costumes worn by new ear gang member's contrasting to the the older ones as the older generation wear tailored suits to not look harmful to the society as they do not mean any harm to the norm as they only harm the ones that harm them or their family and therefore in this instance they have a problem with a gang who harmed ones brother. Also form the taglines in the film trailer the splash of red could be a suggestion of British-Film-Noir this can also be notified by the lighting of the poster that it begins with its consists with lots of darkness which could signify Film Nior.
                                                                                                                                                           
8 Mile: A brutal scene form the film with the famous rapper no other than Eminem. Firstly from the actors clothing they do not have much money because of what they are wearing for example the sibling in the baby-blue jacket does fit her properly this could be suggesting that her clothes are donated. In the Scene there is not much lighting provided majority of the light is being provided is the gangs truck an larger amount is being provided by the darkness which means that it uses natural lighting. The actors in the first 10 seconds show that they are isolated to others and their own parents to look after them or to guide them on their ventures. As the big black arrived  into the yard it could be a suggestion of entering the mans territory but because they are more dominant in the situation they pay no attention to this as it has no meaning to them because they are big when they are together. However form the lonesome mans facial expression it is obvious he is terrified. The man with the nose bleed could be a suggestion of why they are in the yard in the first place and the make up used to make him apper to have a nose bleed could have been because the victims actions. As for the settings it shows that they are in poverty and dont have a stable roof over their head for the brother and sister who are alone. In addition to this we also see the victum give the little one instructions even-without sound it is seen as he knelt down to her level.   



Creed: From the charters attire the genre of the film is for sports but with a narrative to it this is because it is boxing dedicated film. As for the the lighting of the two characters differ for the black man its shows a dark but dimmed in the ring which could signify his hope for the fight but also his life in general as he could have had a hard life before he came into the light but for the well known fighter he has bright lights a well light area to train because he is all about the publicity. From the actors we can see that the mentor for the colored boxer which makes him more motivated to be better at his boxing match. as it is only hope for to become a champion. The sweat pouring of the main character is sings that he want to be the champion of the title therefore he fights harder therefore the make-up used in the scene was to make him sweat. Furthermore we can see that they use props such as boxing gloves to make the audience understand he is a boxer and he is fights for the title in addition to this the settings show all off the things that would signify boxing such as the settings of the gym contained boxing bags a boxing ring and also skipping and these are all props used in the setting of the gym to make it more appealing to the audience

Film posters


Image result for blade runner poster

  1. Blade Runner:What is the film about and what might the storyline  be about? 



     The film blade runner a sci-fi. From the poster this is quite obvious this is exhibited from firstly the the tag line which could suggested man made objects taking over humanity for example robots or outside invaders . It is also given this assumption from the futuristic flying object which is not in our present day of the viewers of this film. Furthermore, the male character is facing away in the central image this shows he is the leader and makes decisions


    3) The target audience is subjected to a male dominate audience; this is noticed because the males character is more enlarged than the female. In summery this film is designed for late teens around 15-40 this is because the film was produced the time special effects was introduced to films.  
    2) Secondly, the film genre is film nior for Blade Runner is seen in the poster. in this instance it is described by the female being smaller than the male and is also smoking which is always noticed in the genre which is a suggestion of femme fatal.  

    1) This has a story line to cover horror films that have alredy been produced but a spoof of the actual film which is a suggestion of humor but the film also contains horror.

    2)Scary Movie: The genre is a collaboration between horror and humor this is a spoof of horror films this can from the font of the poster this font type is seen in scream a horror movie around the time this film was produced which gives it that view. furthermore the tag line shows signs of comedy as it says "absolutely hilarious".

    3) Even though this film is horror it contains comedy which can make this film subjected to students who enjoy horror an keep on top of latest released horror films which will make this film a target to the producers of this film. in summery scary movie can be a ranged audience from 15-35 however can be ranged further to film fans who may be older than the target audience,





    1) Uzak: Firstly the image shows snow which could be there to show that the character in the poster is a criminal who is cold-hearted. Also from the central image it seems to be a foreign made film as i have never heard of it before. Even though i have never seen this film before think to a certain suggest that the person on screen is a run away criminal. After some research my claims where wron the word Uzak means distant this can be seen with his posture also he has his face away from the camera this could signify insecurity to others.

    2) In my opinion with no research i would have assumed it was an action based film however after my research it is a love romance film which is seen from the taglines of people who have seen the film "a real masterpiece". This could be because it is different from other love romance films.

    3) This film is mainly targeted to a female based category as it is based on romance this age can range from 15-30 being the majority of the audience the percentage of the audience being male is 85% female and 15% male.
     
    1)From the film poster I imagine that this young boy is on holiday and is bored in this free time he he digs a hole and the next day this hole becomes a bottomless pit which suggest the title Im Not Scared also from the font of this title you can see blood splatter which connotes violence an gore.

    2)Leading to my seconded point this font title suggests that he is apart of horror film this title could be the suggestion my assumption of horror from the facial expression of the boy looks like it is fear that is because he is astonished to his findings.

    3) The main target audience is produced for  horror fanatics this can range from a young audience from young teens at 15 to 45 i say up to 45 a this film seem to be around the time film producers began using CGI and special effects began coming into films more.




    Sin City:1) From the tittle its synergy with story-line could suggest a city that has a lot of murder and glorify's killings and murders this can seen from the poster as it shows a low angle of a man holding a gun.

    2)This genre of this film from its poster is suggestion of film-noir this can be coded by the long trench coats and old revolvers this is seen frequently in film noir furthermore on this point the color is black and white which is a main part in detectives and film noir. Therefore the splash of red could be a indication to danger but also can be related to  femme fatale as always for example are wearing red.

    3) The main target audience for "sin city" is late teens ranging from 18-49 in my opinion the film seems be targeted at a mature audience so that they can understand the meaning behind the polt of the film such as the plot.




    1)Pirates Of The Caribbean: Is a story based on pirates this is quite obvious from the style of the film poster this film in the sequel has a suggestion of someone being dead from "dead mans chest" which could be a term for a coffin also the the skull can be see in synergy with the charter holding the the gun to his head he has the same red head band which could be a conferring to him being the one dead.

    2) This film poster consists of romance as it contains a female close to the male character this could be a suggestion to action thriller/romance their could also be a divide between the hero and heroin.

    3) Pirates of the Caribbean looks to a film produced to younger audience. Therefore, my prediction for the film is that is subjected for 12 and up i think this as the film poster suggest its a film that contains violence. This film is certificated 12 therefore the target audience 12 and up to 30 because some dedicated film fans enjoy non-fiction/fiction story's.
      




                                                                                                                                                                                         
    1)Bride&Prejudice: from the title of this film i think it is to do with love and romance which my denotation of the film poster furthermore i think that the films story-line is about two Asian family's who do not allow their kids to see each other as they are not living up to the parents expectations.

    2)Firstly its tagline reveals its genre by the slightest as it says romantic therefore its contains romance however to be more specific form the ethnicity of the characters its shows that it will contain drama and also domestics.

    3) The majority of the audience is centered at the female audience as it romance this film is based love story which creates a feminism vibe to the poster to which the attracts the audience its poster.

         1)Million Dollar Baby : Firstly from the title i think that the film is based on this women being a "million dollar baby" this may be because the young women is athletic from the her defention of the back she could be a athlete and does athletics for example she could be a
    competing in 100m sprint.

    2) from the color scheme of the film poster the genre could be based on drama and action this can be seen because splash of red on the actors name which could be a big part in what role the play. The lighting of the poster in shined upon the young lady this could be a suggestion that she is the chosen one .

    3) In conclusion i think the subjected target audience is meant to 50/50 for a mature audience in fact i say 50/50 because the main character is female this could signify female dominance in the film
