Preliminary Task- Fug Lyfe Final

Opening Sequence Analysis- The Notebook(Romantic)

Camara Shots
Most of the shots in this scene are close ups, these show the intanicy of their relationship, if all the shots were long shots it would take the focus away from thier love, and show that they are not that important to one and other by having as many close ups as possble it shows the audicne that these two people should be our only focus. There are however a few long shots, for example the extreme long shot of them rowing in the rain, this now gives the audience a sense of where the couple are and what they are doing.

Mise en Scene
The contrast of the two characters costumes can tell us alot about them. The woman wearing a blue dress, with a pinned up do with sutle  make up shows that either her or her family are wealthy compaered to her  male compain who is wearing a white undertop,(untaucked) with a ungromed beard, by showing the contrasts of these two people, it portrays to the auidnce that anyone from any background can find love. These clothes are typivcal of the 1940/50's, helping the audince get a better understand of the film.
Both actors give the impression that they love eachother but are somehow unable to express this, we can tell this by the silence during the boat ride, by the way the women is sitting we can tell she is very closed of from the man for unknown reason(shown later in the scene).Again thier behavoiur are very typival of the 50s men and woman were not expected to be in intimante in public.
This clip uses natural lighting due to te fact they are outside they were able to make use of the natural light.
The one noticable prop is the boat, which transports the couple around the lake.

Sound
There is alot of sound in this clip from the rain to the orcastrated music, all of which is used effectly.
The thunder that starts as they paddle back to shore may have ment to foreshaddow the argument they are about to have, it may also resemble how one minuete the couple are fine one minuate and hate each other the next (proinant in thre rest of the film).
The oracstra music during the rain is subtle and suits the scene, the music complement inner feelings of both parties.
The music becomes more prominate as they become more physical, showing the lust between them, but at the same time is still soft and gentle unlike the horror.
As the love scene arrives the music fades away so were are listening to the actors heavy breathing, which is very effective, it again shows the audience the passion between them.
The music communicates to audience the love they share  eventhrough rough times which may be represented by rain.

Edtitng
Again the editing is sutble which compliments the scene beautifully, the music fades in and out when needed to either hightlight the charachters feelings or the feelings they share.

Opening sequence analysis- Jennifer's body(Horror)

Camera Shots                                                                                                                                              The first shot in this scene is a two shot close up, of Jennifer and Colin kissing giving the audience a false scene of security thinking it would be a love scene. The next shot is a single close up of Jennifer face showing the changing of her eyes, showing the audience what the scene will actually focus on.Then another close up of Collin's face showing his reaction to her change.A medium shot is then used to show the cutting of Collin's hand and then both. A long shot then shows the physical power of Jenifer. In this scene there are a variety of different shots to show the scene and emotions of each character.

Mise en Scene                                                                                                                                            The costumes are very basic, it is the scenery this is effective,the sheets, small candles with work boards all add to the eeriness horror of the scene.The two actors really make this scene. The male shows how frightened and scared he is while the women shows her supernatural side. The changing of eyes, the fangs and deformation of the body shows that their is a more sinister  side to the film/character. The scenery and minimal costumes suit both the movie and the scene, by keeping it minimal the whole focus is on the characters and murder that is about to ensue. 

Sound                                                                                                                                                         Unlike the comedy the horror has a sinister music with a deep base feel, the sharpness of the  cutting(diegetic) sound adds to the creepiness of the scene, the cracking of the bones is also very sharp giving the audience a physical pain factor that they (the audience) could relate too. The slithering sound when her eyes change give the audience not only an image in which they can see but the sound helps them to relate to her physical being. Most of the sounds only the audience could here (non-diegetic). There are on screen sounds as well as off, we can see him cut his hand(on screen sound). As Collin is ripped apart by Jennifer there is a deep base music to add to the ambiance.The ego of Jennifer's voice 'I need you helpless' puts the audience in Collins mental/physical state so we( the auidence) become Collin, it shows us how he is disoriented due to the braking of his bones and been thrown to the floor.

Editing                                                                                                                                                      

There is minimal editing in this clip, it adds to the fast pace/thrilling sequence that this scene entails, if there was fancy transitions for example dissolving pixels it would take the attention away from the chaos, the minimal transitions help the scene, they were used affectedly so the attention is all on the killing.
