Lesson 3 Monday 22nd June

Aims:
  • To link our skills with deconstructing TV drama with music videos (linking representations)
Keywords:
  • Wiz Pan An extremely quick pan leaving blurrs after it pans
  • Crash zoom An extremely quick forward zoom
Today we studied:
  • Spike Jonze - Its oh so quiet- Bjork
Practice deconstruction:
  • Contrast in opening- visual contrast - starts like a horror
  • Lighting effects match tempo + structure
  • Synchronous (up beat = fast) (slow = low key lighting)
  • Similar to musical = Borrows conventions of musical
  • Centrally framed
  • Orange dress = stand out
  • Artist is represented as quirky
  • Cam slowly tracks Bjork
  • Low key lighting + slow "its oh so quiet"= illustrative
  • Trumpet blair = wizpan, crash zoom, mise en scene borrowed from musicals and continuity editing (when stunt double is used to flip)
  • Walks on crain = rises up = symbolizing status/feeling
=Amplified narrative

Beastie Boys:
  • Fast pace
  • Comical -> Borrows from stereo typical "70s cop shows"
  • Titles matched with still shot of action e.g like the film snatch
=Amplified narrative
