Genre reserch-sports

 Ok in the last blog I was detailing certain conventions for the action genre. Now we are going to the conventions of a sports genre. Well lets start with camera shots. their is no specific shot that always has to be used when filming a sports movie but when they are filmed you usually want to have shots that capture the entirety of the game which would mean long shots would be perfect for this genre. As far as angling goes sports film can really utilize almost any angle, same thing goes for movements but when I watch sports movies their seems to be a lot of Steadicam action, track, Tilt and pan. With regards to costumes its really comes to which sport is the main focus but one thing is for sure their is most likely going to be an inclusion of a jersey. Now for lighting anything is really allowed. When it comes to acting in sports film you could act in a variety of ways but sports films more so call for characters with a hard tough and very gritty  character. Here no specific make up in sports film unless you want make the character seem more gritty when it comes to that maybe you could use a little make up to dirty up the face. Props should most defiantly include objects from the sport of your choice for example I'm doing football so I should have a football. And the setting should be specific to the sport for example since I'm doing football the setting should have something to do with a field. A common editing that I found for the sports genre (in all honesty its really any genre) are jump cuts. Examples of sports film include but are not limited to Blindside, Waterboy, and much more. elements of the sports genre that I like include the use of different lighting (especially in night time scenes that create mood and build the atmosphere and the different angles used to show the action being done in each scene. Elements that I'm not to much of sometimes are the certain sounds I feel like sometimes it can be a bit much even for a sports game and some of the sports outfits rub me the wrong way. With that being said that's all I have with regards to the sports genre

Research: How to make a short film

Image
 I've watched the "how to make a short film" YouTube video and  I gathered a good amount of useful points tips and ideas. Time to delve into what I've gained. Ill start with the fact that when designing or writing you short film one should only do enough that fit their resources. A good example of such is if I have 20,000 I cant be writing or designing for a 100,000 dollar short film. Another example of such is if I only have a water gun I cannot be looking to make a wwii bunker battle since I don't have the resources for such action. When making a short film one should also think of set ups and payoffs. Their are also multiple types of set ups and pay offs including emotional and story as decreed by the video. another skill that their video speaks of is to do or act in opposite of what the audience is expecting. An example of this could be that an audience is expecting a scene  where a mysteries character is the protagonist father but then you can flip the script

Ok, so previously i explained my game plan for doing the video project. this is a continuation of that blog. in this blog I will be going into greater detail about the second part of my plan to finish the project. First it will start with me going up to the front gate of the complex area. From there i would basically take car of all parts pertaining to the killer. I would start with the opening shot of the killer. then i would move on and take all scenes in which pertain to killer. while I'm doing that I would simultaneously improvise each scene. I would add extra movements and even add different camera angles if necessary. from then on I would go back to basketball court. Once there I would take all shots of my victim. just like the killers scenes i would try to improvise the victims scenes with movements and camera angles. After that i would start taking the scenes of the killer and victim in the same frame. I would retake some scenes just incase they were not up to par. note tha
