The Film Titanic Was Directed And Co Edited By James Cameron

“Titanic” was a great representation of history and was mostly historically accurate, although obviously the love story between Rose and Jack’s love story was mostly for the plot. This movie was created in a way to help more people get educated on the sinking of the Titanic, considering that some people prefer learning through movies/documentaries rather that subjecting to their own research. The content of this film keeps the watcher drawn in so that they can stay more focused on it, and learn at the same time. This film was a good source of historical knowledge because although it was intended for entertainment, the information and overall set up of the film made it an easy way for us to retain important details, and become more invested in the subject at

Lewis uses lighting to dramatize the opening scene of the film and characterize the protagonist of the story. The most noticeable utilization of film noir lighting is in the beginning

This is illustrated in the scene when Veruca Salt was in the front of the cameras and smiling because she won one of the golden tickets. The use of this technique points out the happiness she has after she received what she has wanted, everything was bright and jolly. This technique is also employed in the scene when the neighborhood ladies were talking about Edward at Peggy’s barbeque. This detail draws attention to what people don’t see in others when they are not looking. In the end, the high-key lighting shows what’s important on how people really are when others aren’t

There was a warm general wash to illuminate the living room scene. There wasn’t spot light or light transition, because the story follows a chronological order of events happening in the same place. I was wondering at first why there wasn’t any lighting effects and then realized that it might be the lighting designer’s idea to shift all the focus to the actors – what they did and what they said on stage were much more important than all the effects that can distract the audiences. However, there is one thing that could be improved here. They could have turned on the chandeliers that was hanging on in the set to make the lighting more realistic to the audiences.

Just like what Suzie Cameron said,‘’If you don’t do something in life, nothing happens.’’ Especially if there’s a challenge that needs to be faced. To me, I believe that overcoming a challenge gives a sense of accomplishment. You can overcome anything if you think through it first. An example of this is James Cameron, the director of Avatar and Titanic, (and his crew) designed, built, and made a dive into the deepest parts of the ocean. It took them months to build the submarine, called the Deep Sea Challenger. After finishing the sub and were preparing for a test dive, when two members of their team died of a plane crash. This accident could’ve stopped them from reaching their target, but they went ahead because they believed that Andrew

When discussing the design elements, I feel as though the element of light gets overlooked more times than not. Throughout the entirety of the performance, light played a key role in developing effects, and creating a visual reality. The first instance we saw light was in the myth of the greedy father and his daughter. In the story, the father is granted one wish; that everything he touches turn to gold. Unfortunately for the man, his wish comes true and every single thing he touches is instantly transformed to gold. In order to display this element of the play, a golden light was shined on any object the father touched, including his daughter. This light illuminated the action of the story and worked to fulfill the director’s concept. As an audience, we also saw the use of light during an actor’s important set of lines. In

Lighting is one of the many elements that combine to create a perfect setting to reflect not only the story, but also the mood in a scene and the main character’s journey. How the character’s face and body is lit can also help define the character’s state of mind, an emotional state to give that character more depth and more of just a physical look to them that represents what they're going through.

Believe it or not but the lighting also impacts the movie. The lighting has to be just right for the scenes can look believable, like if it was dark the lights would be dimmer. The movie did have its fine and lousy quality. The light in at night needed to be a bit darker to understand that they are using lanterns, but the light outside in the day was appropriate. There was a exceptional amount of light to shine through the barn or even outside.

The Titanic is one of the most famous ships known around the world as the once "unsinkable ship". April 15, 1912 the Titanic sank into the Atlantic Ocean on it's one and only voyage. The 825 ton ship can be found 400 miles off the coast of Newfoundland 12,600 feet below the Atlantic.

Most of the actors are wearing darker clothing as well which makes their faces stand out even more. This lighting style also adds to the tension and the mystery of the scene. It makes the audience on edge. The contrast filled lighting of film noir is also effective at bringing out the extremes of emotions and thought. The darkness of the genre makes anything that goes wrong seem less taboo, because the lighting of the genre sets up the norms for the world that the film lives in—and in that world, bad things happen. The lighting of the film helps the audience understand the world that the characters are in.

Lighting was a key cinematic technique that Well's used to project a character's persona in the film. He used shadows to hide or mask the faces of the seemingly corrupt characters, like the reporters who are trying to find the meaning of rosebud. He also used backlighting, when light is cast onto the characters from the opposite side of the camera, to create silhouette's .Single source lighting was another technique used to focus the viewers attention on a important prop or action that was taking place. For example, when the reporter is allowed to see the book of Kane there is one window through which all it's light is focused on the book emphasizing its importance.

The movie Titanic, directed by James Cameron, was a fictional story based on the true ship, Titanic. Cameron's movie was based on a love story; however, the focus of this paper will be on some of the differences between the two classes aboard the Titanic. This movie clearly portrayed how differently the first and second-class people were treated during the time of the Titanic. This can be related to many other times in American history when groups were segregated as well.

Thesis Statement: From the disaster to the movie, the sinking of the Titanic remains one of the most famous tragedies in history.

The black and white side panels on which the lighting was projected on added a special element to the lighting. Specifically the first scene where the ship wreak takes place, the blue and purple lighting with the way it was moving similar to waves made it look very realistic. Later in the play green light seems to symbolize a character realizing or thinking that Olivia loves them. For example when Cesario who is really Viola realizes that Olivia is in love with her the lighting becomes green. Then again later when Malvolio is reading the letter he thinks Olivia is urging him to declare his love the lighting turns green for the second time.

Within the context of film industry, the film Titanic by James Cameron belongs to epic romance/ disaster genre. The film, released in 1997, was a global box office hit because the director provided equal importance to history, fiction and romance. To be specific, one can see that the film’s plot is based upon the history of RMS Titanic. On the other side, the main characters including the protagonist and the heroine (Jack Dawson and Rose DeWitt Bukater/Dawson) are fictional characters. Besides, the element of romance between the main characters (Jack and Rose) is the film’s main attraction. Thesis statement: The critical analysis of the film Titanic proves that the innovative mode of storytelling (flash back and other techniques),
