Genre research

Sci-Fi

these are iconic Sci-fi films and are films that I researched and watched to gain information on what my film should included to make it a Sci-fi. as I wanted to make a traditionally Sci-fi that didn't challenge and convention of film these where like guide lines. but I did want to create my own film and put my own spin of the Sci-fi genre. i did this because I couldn't get slide share to show my PowerPoint and I wanted to show you this in a different way.

Match on Match action

Match on Match action

Match on match action is where you use two shots to make one long shot. For example the first shot can be of someone throwing a punch and the next shot can be of the punch landing, the two shots are then made into one shot so it looks like one long shot of someone getting punched. this can give a realistic look of someone being punched. so match on match action is two or more shots made to look like one long shot through editing it is a technique perfected by Jackie Chan.

Match on match action is generally used in most scene involving contact such as fighting. It is used when a character throws a punch which will make contact with the character aimed for the punch is thrown but is cut before contact, the next shot is either parallel or at a different angle entirely and then the fist makes contact. Jackie Chan uses a method where when he throws a punch the camera cuts yet show the fist from two frames back from the previous shot, this is so the audience this the punch looks stronger or harder, Jackie Chan has used this technique through out his career and it gives his action a more realistic look. This link show how Jackie Chan uses his technique to create action comedy using match on match action.

The 180 Degree Rule Explanation  

 

The 180 degree rule when talking about film is the reference to the imaginary line created when two people are in a scene having a conversation or looking at each other. this rule was created so people watching a film would not be confused when two people are facing each other. The 180 degree rule is the line in which once the camera has picked a side it may not cross over to the opposite side without an establishing shot to show the camera has moved to the other side of the characters. Once the camera has picked a side of the characters, it may move anywhere within the 180 degree move space, it may also use any camera angle or view within the 180 degree rule space. If the camera wants to move to the other side of the characters the camera must first establish the movement by either a swish to the other side of the characters or an establishing shot to establish the characters standing where they are once again.

preliminary task

This is a film that was created as a preliminary task to show rules of film like the 180 degree rule and match on match action dont blame me for quality or the script as i wanted explosions.
