Chase Scene Project


Camera movements are used to show emotion in film. They can make the scene seem action-packed, sad and dark, or even very stern. Movements really draw the attention of viewer, and deliver the message of what they should be feeling about the scene they're watching. Filmmakers enhance their work by using camera movements to show what they feel while they're making the film. It shows the hard work and effort put into every single second of the clips, and you can really tell by how they use their camera movements. We did succeed in editing very well, but I think next time my group would need to work on our coordination for the scenes, and overall making the clips flow better.

Rear Window, Film Analysis and Audio Study

The entire film is shot in one huge panning scene, and the camera never leaves the room. This makes sense for the start of the movies opening shot just one large pan across the neighborhood, giving us insight into the plot for the entire movie. We get to see each person living in their natural space, and then onward their development through the film. I think it's an amazing feat Hitchcock has completed managing to capture the entire film is one single panning scene. The commentator makes some excellent points, bringing up how Hitchcock creates more suspense by showing us almost as much as the protagonist, and making us feel as powerless as L.B feels throughout the film, unable to move. This makes the film a million times better, and adds excitement and thrill to watching this, and makes us question the main characters sanity. I think that this film was amazing. Some of the shots were very interesting ideas, like when L.B actually became the cameraman momentarily when ...

The Golden Mean

The golden mean comes from a mathematician named Phidias, who figured out the composition of the "average" human being. To create the golden mean the proportion has to be 0.618 to 1. We saw some interesting examples of the Golden Mean like the Mona Lisa (by Leonardo Da Vinci) and even in Stonehenge.  This is living proof that humans have been using the golden mean for centuries. It's also a major factor to why humans are at the top of the food chain, because we have supposed "perfect bodies." The golden mean is also prevalent in many cultural references, including the pentagram. For that reason, that is why the Pentagon is our base for US defense. The golden mean is used so often, wether it be in art, architecture, or even in just human design, it begs the question of why the golden mean is used so often. Well, the answer is simple. It's the best that we've got, and is based on humans. Why would we settle for the rest if we already have the best. :-)
