The Motorcycle Diaries

The film techniques used in this film changes the entire landscape and changes the mood during the scene. The colour reflects on a charters feelings and the camera angles and

This knowingness is also carried inside and out in the film by portraying different camera shots. Many establishing shots and master shots have been used in various parts. Many establishing shots provide the audience with key information needed and perhaps to suggest the narrative and genre. These affect in a positive way because they suggest the consciousness of atmosphere and mood of the surroundings.

This film goes in different directions from the setting to iconography. This is an interesting film that is intense and makes the viewer want to know what is going to happen

A variety of camera techniques are used throughout the beginning sequence to enhance the mood and involve the audience. Camera techniques are harmonized with lighting effects to culminate this dramatic scene. I will begin by discussing examples of this. In the village, many close-ups and long shots are used to enhance facial expression and to set the sombre mood.

In creating an excellent film there is diverse qualities and techniques a director may apply such as, Follow Shots, Long Take, Dolly Zoom, Slow-motion, Silhouette Lighting etc. These different techniques are significant when being used all the way through a movie to draw in an spectators and tell the story efficiently. Cinematographic techniques such as the choice of shot, and camera progress, can greatly control the structure and meaning of a film. The use of different shot sizes can influence the meaning which an audience will interpret. In cinematography, the use of light can influence the meaning of a shot. A great example of a movie that displays all of these shots is Charlie’s Angels. Charlie’s Angels: Full Throttle (2003) is the sequel to the film Charlie’s Angels (2000) and is an adjustment of a

clever camera techniques which create tension and fear. The camera shots also pay close attention to detail. For example, when the man with the dog throws a stick for his dog to fetch into the sea, the camera

The camera movement from one side of the street to the unknown neighbor's house illustrated how unwilling they were to listen to Will’s reasoning yet determined to inflict violence upon a presumed “terrorist family”. The previous examples revealed that with the correct camera movement you can enhance feelings, and foretell them too. In specificity to these scenes, the reoccurring slanted motion appealed to the feeling of disarray and foreshadowed the mayhem to come. While the camera movement from one house to another depicted the wrath of the mob; proves that the cam movement allowed the viewer to receive a better sense of what unreasonable fear the characters are feeling.

In contrast with interviews that James conducts as a source or witness, in which he sets the mise-en-scene, James tends to keep the camera true-to-life with the mother (Bellour, 50). James maintains a shaky camera technique to solidify his position as “the eye looking into their world.” During panning or other establishing shots, narrated sequences, and interviews with characters, a tripod is used to separate those moments from the story. Although not entirely non-diegetic, the interviews are spaces in the film shot outside of the story. The audience is given confirmation of how William and Arthur must be feeling during this time, allowing character development. Along with the ethical concerns of not tampering with reality, aesthetic efforts during the interviews was necessary to separate them from reality (Ellis, 222)

The novella and movie A River Runs Through It show a few different motifs. A motif is a theme that keeps showing up as symbols. Three of the motifs were family, water, and hands.

The directors chosen camera technique, a simple two composition that progresses the scene a steady pace, forces the audience to feel a part of the awkward exchange; obviously, a quality of film that could not be as profoundly achieved through the narrative in the novel.

The Motorcycle Diaries is the film based on a Medical student (Ernesto Guevara de la Serna) journal. The film entails details of a road trip for medical student friends with the objective to have some fun before their graduation. In the movie, Che Guevara and his friend Alberto Granado seek to have fun with young women traveling across Chile, Colombia, and Peru. In the movie, the two friends face significant challenges that include lack of enough money, motorbike breakdowns. In the end, the friends manage to make meaning out of the road trip with the help of some communists.

The production of a film affects the audience whether they know it or not, and this makes the role of directors a very powerful one (Kidd). Throughout the film the director employs a large array of camera movement and visual techniques to convey his ideas and themes. The first example is how handheld shots are used to show the struggle of good vs. evil and Nina's mental instability. A scene where this is used is during one of her mental episodes where she gets home from training before the opening night. The camera follows her down the hallway while slowly getting closer to her as the viewer sees her start to rush down the hall, because she believes there is something following her. This technique allows the audience to almost enter Ninas mind and show how she feels someone is out to get her. The handheld shots provide an erratic movement that shows she is mentally unstable. This theme of mental instability is also shown through the use of zoom. It is used throughout the film to portray a feeling of claustrophobia and frightened tension. Like the tracking shots this is seen during Nina's mental delusions. The close up shots create a very intimate feeling with the viewer to show her frightened and confused facial expressions which helps to further demonstrate that she isn't mentally or emotionally stable. Another filming technique used is the dolly shots. An example is the opening scene when Nina is having a dream of herself as the Swan Queen. This scene shows the audience how much she wants to be perfect. The dolly helps to focus on the precision in her feets movement and shows the required detail to reach perfection. Due to the smooth movement of the dolly it amplifies her fluidity as she dances. All of this helps to show Aronofsky’s theme of perfection. The use of montage in Black Swan shows the idea of childhood to

It is reviewed with emphasis on Historical criticism because it is based on a true story however it emphasis on the Gender studies but only to the extent of showing that there is more authority given to the men than the women and children. It is also emphasizing the receivers view. Often stated the receiver may feel subconscious because of the unnecessary bodies of the characters portrayed in this film. The visual effects are noticed for example, dramatic falls, filters, and super slow motion. This emphasis is on the structuralism of the film.

Alfred Hitchcock’s 1954 film, Rear Window, explores many dimensions in cinematography. The phenomenal film is well known for proclaiming its voyeurism issues that goes on in today’s society. Even though voyeurism is an act that should not be done, this film portrays it in an affirmative way. Rear Window introduces primary structural components in the first act which sets the mood for the audience to interact with J.B. Jefferies in a way as it is the audiences duty to help him solve the mystery on whether Thorwald murdered his wife or not.

The cinematography of this film features numerous close-ups of its adolescent protagonists as well as point-of-view shots acquired predominantly from their perspective, thus making the viewers position themselves firmly on the boys’ side of
