Evaluation

When we started to plan our film we came up with a really good initial idea as we strted with messed up fairytales which led us to a messed up version of Alice in Wonderland. For inspiration we looked at a game revolving around a twisted alice in wonderland story and used lines to create the script. We looked for creepy music and sounds to add in. We also agreed what we would need for props and costumes and by the end of the first week had planned it all out ready for filming.

The first day of filming was okay we got a bit filmed but struggled to film the second part as we didn't really know or have anywhere to film. Our next two lessons we didn't have the opportunity to film due to missing members. So by the final week we had lost hope for our film as we needed to edit but had barley done any filming.

However we decided if we finished all our theory work that day and got all the film on the computers I could go home and try to do something with the footage. So our next lesson we came in with a semi decent film that needed more narration and dialogue. So we went down to the recording studio and got some creepy voices edited in high quality so the next day we recorded extreme close ups of Poppys mouth to go with the recordings. Ollie put all our paperwork together and i edited our film and I think overall concidering we lost two hours of filming time it turned out really cool intresting and creepy.

The shot then changes direction and shows a point of view shot which is stationary to show there is something outside the building the character has seen that we have missed. It then becomes a mid shot of the character with a shocked look on her face which reinforces  the idea that she has seen something outside. The shot becomes a forward tracking and we can only see the characters back which leaves the audience in suspense as she will see before us what is outside of the building as we already know it must have some significance from the previous camera shots and her reaction. This tracking is slow to build up the tension even more and it becomes an establishing shot as we just see the characters silhouette looking at somet

Pans Labyrinth: Opening Scene The scene begins with with a black screen briefly explaining the context of the film, this fades into a rotating shot of the main character Ofelia on the ground bleeding. The camera shows Ofelia's nose bleeding in reverse which tells the audience that we are seeing the end of the film and the film will take place before the current events. The lighting is low key which tells us that the theme of the film is dark and mysterious as the audience are wondering what this is about  and the top lighting is the first of our circle imagery as this is obviously taking place in the night  so the light source must be the moon which is a circle, this also creates a bluish light which makes us feel cold. As the shot is rotating into zooms into her eye which once again gives us that circle imagery shown through the film and possibly suggesting that the cycle never stops and it just keeps going round and round. this could also link to after the Spanish civil war Spa
