My Three favourite films:

 Click:
One of my favourite films that i saw in media awards was click and i found it interesting of how the action the suitcase and everything was built upon that as it was the main element of this film and was highly focused on it. Furthermore the suitcase also acted as the macguffin which made it even more intriguing for the audience. I also liked the use of action within this film as as it built up tension for the audience and the use of sound was also very effective. This film seems to be a art house film and seems to be aimed at teens and adults. The props were used quite effectively in this film there were also various types of shots that were seen as there were long shots and short shots used and the settings were also very different and there were certain types of lighting used such as low key which added to the enigma. There were certain close up shots seen as well which heightened the emotions.This film also had a linear pattern.

Out of mind:

I found this film very interesting  as it was well established and conveyed much more suspense and really bought attention from the audience and certain reactions. I liked the way the settings were changed quite often highlighting the mise en scene part of this and the characters movement and placement also played a massive role towards it. I liked the fact that there was some sort of mystery linked to it which created suspense. Furthermore this film portrayed different settings and also used various shots to add to the key conventions in this film. There was also diagetic sound used as most objects were making the sounds and there was effective dialogue also used in this film.

Euporia:

 This film was also very interesting as it had certain shots that made it look more interesting towards the audience and built up tension and the element of the blood which was used in this film built more tension and got a reaction for the audience. As it was gradually getting worse each time made the audience wonder what was happening and this made it stand out as it also included flashbacks and a systematic journey throughout. This film contained various types of shots as it had long and close up shots a well and was mainly a life story with happy events and how the happiness was gradually degrading the props used was the fake blood used which very effective and there was also parallel sound as it went with the chain of events.

sound analysis: Blog task

Funny Games: 1) The music suggests that the family is quite high class and formal because they are listening to classical music and playing games. 2) The use of music is diagetic and parallel as it goes with the sort of family they are. 3)I think that the narrative will develop as there might be some sort of danger when they reach their destination as the music played towards the ending of the scene seems quite serious. A Clockwork orange: 1)This scene uses classical music which doesn't go with the scene as it is non diagetic and contrapuntal as we are unable to associate it with the scene. 2)The action in this scene is slow so it could be adding to the tension of this particular scene. Time in the west: 1)The sounds within this scene were footsteps, water, fingers clicking, the fly buzzing and the train. 2)The sound bridge was the train as we heard it before we actually saw it which creates a tense atmosphere as we don't know what is going to happen next. Once upo...
