Touch of Evil 1958 - Opening scene

the clip straight away start with writitng appearing liek credits but coming ip, the normal sized font in white colour. then a quote or speech appreas on the screen by orsen welles. then a old clip appreas in black white with a music loud introducing a production logo, then th efil starts a new music that a has rtythmic beat, wand a man is shown playing with a machine in his hand, the man is not completely revlied jus his middle body with hands , soon clip aparts on a side where a corner of street or alley sort of way is whon and two people walking and a women salughing in a very unusual way. the pass on the side and this man with machine is his hand is whon running all of a sudden in a hurry due to this you cannot see his face properly. the man reaches th ecar park before them and bput the machine that ow is certain to be a bomb in the boot of the car. and run away witth the couple noticing. the couple set in th ecar and raom off, here a manother music is played that sound like jazz music. Already the film looks liek the 1960s time. while this couple in the are goign another couple is shown crossing th esimilir raod while walking. the  takes on this couple for a while and then you see the couple in th ecar justbehind these two walking. walking couple enter a hotel ground behind are the couple in the car, the coupel start to talk as the enter the gate where they asked question yy the gate keeper, then th ecar come s the coupel in the car ask, could go in to walking coupel as they are in the way, the man replies then as the go to the side th ecar passes the girl in the car says she could hear a tiking noise nobody pays attention to here, the camera moves to walking couple they kiss and then suddenly the sound of th ebomb blasting, the coupel are shocked turn around the man starts walking toward the incident and hs wife beind, he tells her he has to sort this out and tells her to stay away safely, in the hotel and wait to come.
this move seems to be cfi type but tolder version, the wanting to sort this seems to a police officers perhaps. but so far the is a bore this targeted to a certain audience otherwise it okay in terms of filming.

Bullet Boy - opening

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avuovbgoyxU&feature=youtu.be

the film starts with an audio ad visual clip introducing the BBC Films production logo, which fades and another visual clip appears of  UK Film council logo, then as this fades writting appear with simple font and size prouding us to the film information the cast, the producers, directors, names appreas with black visual background and new audio music is played as this happens, then slowly the film fades in with pitch darkeness and this little boy is shown with a torch, that fades a white background is shown with the name of the film in simple middle sized font. soon this fades in a clip which is first zoomed into a glass window of a door to a room with blurry person at the inside it, soon the focus onto whom is laying on a bed or something ad then you hear someone open the room goes into the man, soon it clear that the room is a cell room in a police station where the man was a prison whom is out now and the steps out as a lady opens his and tell him to go to the counter where he's sorted with two police officers asking for his personal details. he is told to grab his bag and go, then the clip changes to hanother man driving and his lights his ciggrette. he notices that something is inside the back of his car in the boot area, he swears, stops the car to go and check. he stunned open to see a young boy with auniform on, he is really annoyed asks why he here the boy tell him he wants to see, his brother, driver doesnt agree tell him to go hoe boy points out he doesnt even know where he is, the drivers leaves him ad goes, the boy is super irritated, a few second th eman comes back reversing his car and tell the boy to get inside a car and ride off to the police station to collect the man who was comign out. here you can see that te man who was drving knows the little boy as he is the little boys brothers friend whom was the prisoner that comes out now. the little boy hugs his brother and ride off again.. soon the 3 are shown in some deserted corner near high or a farm, the boys are smoking while the little just wondering , the driver boy leaves for some while and the two others start a conversation about what his missed some personal queston he asks about a girl , he asks whether his brother took the responsiblity that he gave to keep an eye on the girl, he not satisfied with brother doing it properly. her then asks why his brother was in th eboot and tell him not to d that again the little boy promise so.

so far the film is quite confusing audience cannot be sure whom its targeted for, the boys are all black guys. some sort of criminal action packed it seems form the title, the whther seems to be summer season by the clips show so far. overal its a misterious, confusing but interesting film.

This clip start with a very jolly upbeat music and camera shot are very fast and keep moving, again there knifes being sharpened, things being cooked, the people shown are having fun dancing with the then then it shows chickens being killed and cooked one by one, it focuses on one, whom see everything that happens to the chicken being killed. he tries best and actually run away someone notices and chase for life beings as the chicken keeps running for its life and a bunch boys behind it.

Delicatessen intro Analysis

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=avuovbgoyxU&feature=youtu.be
the clip starts with a foggy scene of a deserted place then moves on into a restaurant slowly zooming inside. the the sound or aural language is very weary, creepy, it actually sounds like the wind but it slightly gets  loud. the scene moves on into a kitchen where a man is sharpening his huge knife, again the surrounding is very silent the only thing you can hear is the the knife being sharpen. the man clearly seems to be a butcher. the camera zooms passed is head into the wall where there is a whole pipe, the sound of the knife sharpening suddenly get sharper, louder and it echoes through the pipe sounding very creepy and scary. at the other end of the pipe another man is standing whom is listening to the butcher sharpening his knifes. the man seems really terrified, his sweating, bandaging, he dresses up and gopes down to see what loading from the van. the butcher watching bin being unloaded, then it shows the man inside waiting, until his picked up and soon butcher see him inside the bin and chops his head. the camera inside the bin is very interesting as all you can see is his eyes moving around.

Five minutes of my chosen 3 movies

A Cinderella Story

Just watching the first 5 mins of this I film I noticed many visual, aural, written language. The film starts with a visual image and aural background music which turns into the Warner Bros Pictures logo, then writing appears with an old fashion font. Then slowly a visual clip of a castle or palace appears along with the narrator whom is the main lead of the show, she introduces you to her story which seems typical at first but instant clip changes to a modern view of a girl and her father setting on hill top valley of San Fernando of which the narrator admits and here another slightly happy up beat music is played at the background. This carried on with many clips of this lil girl and her dad, their carry ride to her baseball game and at same time the narrator is guiding you the voice of this little girl captions also appear introducing the cast. You already get a hint of the genre because the movie’s title “A Cinderella Story”. And this already gives you an insight that its appealing audience is for young aged people mostly teenagers. Just like any fairy tale, Th movie begins with happy memories and then a sudden storm comes and destroys it completely changing life! Similarly in this movie the girl is all happy with her widowed dad whom she calls him her best friends, all is well till her step mum enters.  It shows how one night while she was talking with her dad in her bed while he was telling her a bed time story, she listens carefully as her dad tells her about his dreams for her and his advices for her toward life.  Never had she thought next moment she loses her best friend due to an earthquake and her world changes completely.  Her dad hadn’t left her any will and so her step mum gets s everything including her! Here it shows the lil girl going up the stairs into a little room and music is played. 

Soon sunrise and it’s a new day after few years and the little girl has grown up, becoming her steps mums’ maid.

I found this story very sweet as Cinderella has always been my favourite fairy tale cartoon, it about every girls dreams, their morals their journey in fulfilling these goals and standing for their rights.

3 idiots

This film starts with a black board as visual background and it a chalk starts to type in the name of the movie ‘3 idiots’ while this writing appears there also sound effect of the screeching of the chalk. Scene moves into the airport and inside it, instruction are being said by air hostess as background noise. The airplanes is about to set off and then a man is shown setting going through a book and his mobile rings. As he talks a suspense music plays at the back he answer “what?” at the same time the air hostess ask him to switch off his mobile but he carries his getting an important message and he want to cancel his flight immediately however he doesn’t how to stop this flight she he pretended to having a heart stroke! As the planes lands back for emergency medical service the man shown in a wheel chair and soon he sneaks open his eyes looking around then suddenly jumps off the wheel chair does a little exercise , stretching around and then says i am completely fine thank you guys go and i leave myself then runs out the airport, once his out he walks normally and takes someone and tells himself as one of the receivers of somebody deceives the driver and he asks the driver to take him to somewhere and speed up and then calls his friend. 

The scene moves to a ring phone in a house then someone peaks out his bed,  after receiving the phone he too get all excited and starts running about and dresses leaving the house without any pants, his wife whom was ding yoga ties warning him but his already left. He sets inside the car with his other friend and says to his friend that he forgot to bring his sucks his friend s laughs and says dude you not only forgot you r socks but your pants too. When they arrive at the a college both men run of the car the other tells the driver to go back to airport and get the right guys called Dillon, the scene shows the actual man worried where the collector has gone without him! Both men run crazily on a long 

steer and reach a terrace where they meet another man.

The film seemed to have a comedy genre, as it starts in a rush and already the audience is enjoying and entertained. The movie seems to be a very light and fun movie of 3 friends how the struggle to achieve their parent dream but through movie it tells a serious message to parents about not forcing you children into you r dream but rather accepting the talent and skill of which you children are born with and about their dream career.

Twilight

Twilight too starts with an aural and visual language of an image n slowly but quite fast zooming instrument sound, the image changes on the screen and a logo appears of the production house name. The image disappears and a voice is start talking, slowly sounds of birds tweeting play and a clip of a jungle is show zooming into a little dear. The narrator is voice of girl, she talks about death and the clip starts to get gloomy and background music get louder as the girl finishes talking. A scary atmosphere is created. Something is now hunting the dear and it realises and quickly starts to running but whatever is following it is very fast, soon it the dear is caught a strong lit hits the screen and the clip is changed into a open greenery space where a girl is standing is reflecting her thought about not leaving her home and that she would miss phoenix, the heat (she starts moving) and scene changes to where she hugged and kissed by her mum and to which she says she will miss her (in her mind) and her new husband. As they are going to somewhere she has decided to go and spend some time with her dad. To which she’s hopes to be a good thing. 

A far screen shoot of the car is shown while her voice in the background as the car moves, music played background someone singing, a quick shot of her shown inside the care and then the scene is changed t an airplane setting off. deserted mounts are shown and then slowly an caption appear and then the name of the film, ‘twilight’ then it fades away and a high bridge is above the sea, going towards Washington. The girl voice appears again giving background information about the place she is going to be staying with her dad a town called fork, she is shown setting in the next to her dad on the high way. She introduces her dad Charlie and how his is the chief police. Lil bit of the surrounding is shown then it focuses back on the girl and her dad in the car and then Charlie starts a conversation by asking her about her haring being longer this time, she replies and soon this scene changes to where the car park Charlie house. The girl mention how she use to come to her dads house every summer for two weeks but it has been ages she hasn’t come. They unload their packing scene moves to inside her house to bedroom ad soon someone comes outside their house ad it Charlie’s friend and his son. Charlie has gifted his daughter a car , she introduced with the characters jack Charlie’s friends son who’s built the engine of her car.

So far everyone is introduced except the lead girl, the movie creates suspense already in audiences mind but drags to carry on watching, the genre is romance but in its dark movie and its fiction, about vampires.

"Understanding the media is vital to modern life"

Media has been around from a long time in one form or another, however during this very recent it has changed and become vital for everyday life especially with the development of internet. The purpose of media is to inform, educate and entertain to us.  Internet allows us to communicate with people all the way at the other end of the world, with social networks such as Facebook, twitter, messenger etc. This is a very cheap way for people to stay in touch with their family and friends around the world. It is also a platform for people to express their ideas, feelings and concerns. With the ongoing of time, the impacts of media have increased vastly to the extent that now Media can also control us in today’s modern society.

Media plays part in day to day activities such phones, emails, shopping and social sites.  Day by day we are becoming more dependent on media and it soured of knowledge. Media has helped us to be aware of the world around from local level to global level, everything can be found through internet and it’s easy and accessible. Business use media such TV, phones and social sites to Market and advertise their product. 

The good thing about media is that it caters all aged people, it useful to teachers, students, doctors and even old people. For example old age people can use to help them in their daily routines such as shopping online even mothers whom are busy or working can shop online instead of having to go out. Young people could use it in helping them to achieve their best in their education. Anybody could use it to entertain themselves by listening to news, favourite music or simple reading through eBook rather having than having to go to a library and get a book.  

Like everything in this world media has its positive and negative effects. Many argue that media is ruining the traditional lifestyle of socialising by going out or communicating with your family. However it has also helped to be aware of huge threatening problem of global warming. Media becoming something that we cannot hide from neither can we ignore it? It’s therefore vital in our lives.  I personally think that everything has its positivity and negativity it depends to how one uses it, if you use it will you will profit from it and if you make a mess then you will lead yourself into a problem.
