Dialougue from the film

Jayeola: I got into poetry in secondary school *girls laughing* when I read a poem about love *kissing background noise* that really inspired me. I thought to myself that's how i'd love to write. 
Esther: *soft breathing* I write poetry because it's my safe zone, a place i go to where i talk to it and it speaks to me.
*wind chimes audio*
Jayeola: It's easy to write 'i feel' or 'i think' but then to actually describe how you feel is special thing. Especially in cases of mental health.

Task 14- Camera shots I will use in my project

Camera movements that I'll use

       Arc Shot
     A shot in which the subject is circled by the camera. Beloved by Brian De Palma, Michael Bay.

1. Example: The shot in De Palma's Carrie (1976) where Carrie White (Sissy Spacek) and Tommy Ross (William Katt) are dancing at the prom. The swirling camera move represents her giddy euphoria, see?

   Close Up

   A shot that keeps only the face full in the frame. Perhaps the most important building block in cinematic storytelling.
   Example: Falconetti's face in The Passion Of Joan Of Arc (1928).

   Long Shot

   A shot that depicts an entire character or object from head to foot. Not as long as an establishing shot. Aka a wide shot.
   Example: Omar Sharif approaching the camera on camel in David Lean's Lawrence Of Arabia (1962).

   Deep Focus

   A shot that keeps the foreground, middle ground and background ALL in sharp focus. Beloved by Orson Welles (and cinematographer Gregg Toland). Production designers hate them. Means they have to put detail in the whole set.
   Example: Thatcher (George Couloris) and Kane's mother (Agnes Moorehead) discussing Charles (Buddy Swan)'s fate while the young boy plays in the background in Citizen Kane (1941).

   Dolly Zoom

   A shot that sees the camera track forward toward a subject while simultaneously zooming out creating a woozy, vertiginous effect. Initiated in Hitchcock's Vertigo (1959), it also appears in such scarefests as Michael Jackson's Thriller video (1983), Shaun Of The Dead (2004), The Evil Dead (1981) and The Goofy Movie (1995). It is the cinematic equivalent of the phrase "Uh-oh".
   Example: Police Chief Brody (Roy Scheider) sees the Kintner kid (Jeffrey Voorhees) get it in Jaws (1975). Not the first but the best.

   Dutch Tilt

   A shot where the camera is tilted on its side to create a kooky angle. Often used to suggest disorientation. Beloved by German Expressionism, Tim Burton, Sam Raimi and the designers of the villains hideouts in '60s TV Batman.
   Example: The beginning of the laboratory scene in Bride Of Frankenstein (1935).

   Handheld Shot

   A shot in which the camera operator holds the camera during motion to create a jerky, immediate feel. Beloved by Steven Soderbergh and Paul Greengrass. It basically says, "This is real life, baby".
   Example: The pool hall fist fight in Scorsese's Mean Streets (1973).

   Low Angle Shot

   A shot looking up at a character or subject often making them look bigger in the frame. It can make everyone look heroic and/or dominant. Also good for making cities look empty.
   Example: Darth Vader stomping around the Death Star corridors in Star Wars Episode IV A New Hope (1977).

   High Angle Shot

   A shot looking down on a character or subject often isolating them in the frame. Nothing says Billy No Mates like a good old high angle shot.

   Locked-Down Shot

   A shot where the camera is fixed in one position while the action continues off-screen. It says life is messy and can not be contained by a camera. Beloved by Woody Allen and the dolly grips who can take the afternoon off.
   Example: Ike (Woody Allen) and Mary (Diane Keaton) walk in and out of shot whilst flirting.

   Matte Shot

   A shot that incorporates foreground action with a background, traditionally painted onto glass, now created in a computer. Think the Raiders warehouse or the Ewok village or Chris Hewitt's house.
   Example: The final shot of 1968's Planet Of The Apes.

   Pan

   A shot where the camera moves continuously right to left or left to right. An abbreviation of "panning". Turns up a lot in car chases and on You've Been Framed (worth £250 if they use a clip).
   Example: Brian de Palma's Blow Out (1981) — a 360 degree pan in Jack Terry (John Travolta)'s sound studio.

   Tilt

   A shot where the camera moves continuously Up to Down or Down To Up. A vertical panning shot. A tilt to the sky is traditionally a last shot in a movie.
   Example: The last shot of Robert Altman's Nashville (1975).

   Tracking Shot

   A shot that follows a subject be it from behind or alongside or in front of the subject. Not as clumsy or random as a panning shot, an elegant shot for a more civilized age. Beloved by Stanley Kubrick, Andrei Tarkovsky, Terence Davies, Paul Thomas Anderson.
   Example: The dolly shots in the trenches during Stanley Kubrick's Paths Of Glory (1957).

   Zoom

   A shot deploying a lens with a variable focal length that allows the cinematographer to change the distance between camera and object without physically moving the camera. Also see Crash Zooms that do the same but only quicker.
   Example: The slow descending zoom that picks out Mark (Frederic Forrest) and Ann (Cindy Williams) out of a crowd in The Conversation (1974).

Task 9- Final initial idea

Task 9
post 1
The theme can be what inspires and fuels creativity, there's three people.

Number one= emotion and will follow a narrative on mental illness and give awareness. The dialogue will be a long the lines of "everything in life has become a function of self discovery and self sustenance; what job should i have some see this as means to sustain or as means to justify self worth, who they are and what there existence means to them and to others. people in this generation use art as a form of self discovery, art can be found in anything similar to poetry. when we think we don't realise we don't actually think in sentences but in phrases and pictures and sounds and memories and feelings and all these other things so its hard to communicate yet as humans we need connection for survival, so what did we do? enhanced technology when in reality that has made us lose touch, art is a true form of communication. when i go to the art museum and I find something that speaks to me without words, you can stare at it for ages. interesting to see someones pain or joy translated through colours or no colour at all."

"We're here but we're not really here, you look in the mirror at your reflection and cant believe all the things that are silently going on in your mind, all the feelings of euphoria, pain, crippling awkwardness, longing to be something, say something be somewhere else, thinking in pictures and remanences, the outside cant even fathom, you catch a glimpse of yourself in lets say a computer screen or window working apart of this bigger picture of the world and its weird cos you've really never felt outside of yourself, you're always inside your own mind, surrounded by the walls of say, a classroom but really you're somewhere else. The world can get lonely so when we see something poetic or artistic it's interesting to witness someone's soul finally apart of the world and a recollection manifesting outside of themselves. a beauty i'm sure even a philistine can acknowledge"

"excited by the documentary of flesh and blood"

Number 2= sexuality, so this is art to do with the LGBT. How the art of poetry, dance etc is used to empower or reflect whats in them, dialogue may be a long the lines of "when i do what i do i want other like minds to find me and have a conversation, i want to make friends like me cos i've been alone for a while now. Not only that but i want my work to be a friend to the people that are alone." This story should be more about empowerment and celebration of sexuality. This may also follow the theme of love as an inspiration (for the theme of love I may use my friend who speaks Russian as I want my short film to be diverse).

Number 3= ethnicity or just cultural background. talking about their race as a big fuel for creation, and what it means to be black, brown or yellow. This is not only about struggles but about culture, celebration and empowerment. There will be cultured music and features of art that also feature a celebration of people in colour for example Chris Ofili. I'm going to use my Angolan friend who speaks the language Lingala. The dialogue may be "being black* is my biggest struggle but also my biggest inspiration"
"I had a lot of insecurities that came from a young age just from being Darkskin and having course hair, I remember crying in primary school because my hair was to kinky curly and everyone was pulling my hair and making fun of me."
" I've loved testing the colour palette to get brown shades, these are the most beautiful colours ever now, I want to paint my room brown, paint the whole world chocolate, i want to bathe in ebony because i truly find the shade beautiful."
The person i'm using may recite a bit from a poem that they've written.
