Section A- Film Form in US Cinema from the Silent Era to 1990

1- In the film, Singin' in the Rain, diegetic and non-diegetic sound has been used to create meaning. Diegetic sound is when the noise is visible to the viewers so for example, when the actors are speaking, sound that comes from a speaker or orchestra or any sounds that originate from the screen like footsteps or sirens. Whereas, non diegetic sound is when the source is not present. For instance, music or actors commentating in the background or sound effects.

The Gold Rush Scene 1: (54:58-55:18) Micro elements: Charlie's costume is quite scruffy and dirty. This shows that he isn't the richest man and he wears whatever he can afford/find.

Furthermore, the location of this scene is in the little house with no else in the majority of the scene is Charlie which means that your attention is dra

Year 12 Assessment- Narnia

1.a) When shooting the Narnia task, we considered camera shots and angles. We learnt that getting many different angles is the best idea to create good quality content as we found that long frames of the same angle may bore the viewer as they aren't able to get a range of perspectives. When filming, we tried to make sure there were two cameras filming different angles at the same time so we could have double the content that we could use when editing and to make sure that if any shot was out of focus or over-exposed; we don't have to film it again as we have other footage. Some of the shots we used were; Weather Shots - This is where we filmed parts of the weather and scenery to allow it to seem more real to the audience and to set the mood of the scene. This shot does have other purposes but we used this to create an atmosphere for the viewers. Close up shots - This is where a certain feature or face takes up the majority of the frame. We did this in our Narnia task to e
