Media Studies 24-25

             We (mainly me and Kristian) were first trying to decide what kind of genre we would be doing. At first we wanted to do a comedy skit, like Saturday Night Live. We then settled for a drama. Kristian immediately got to work, making a skit like a machine. He sent his result to John and I. We were a bit judgmental at first, but we accepted it. One problem John had was the lines for the voiceover, as he said it did not make much sense. So far though, there are no changes to the lines. We were all good with our roles, except I did not think that John could be a good voiceover. The original script had a prop gun, but we heard that it wasn't allowed so we had the change it to a drone shot of the car. Thankfully, I realized that my dad has a drone that I'm sure he will let me borrow. Elizabeth joined the group late, so we took that opportunity to take John's role of voiceover and give it to her. Then we settled with the final result, so far.

After much hassle, I managed to get Kristian (who is in another class) to join and John joined. Elizabeth joined later. Kristian quickly started throwing ideas from comedy to tragedy. We settled on a p hilosophical fiction/drama. Kristian easily became the scriptwriter and director. With his past experience, he was also in charge of sound and editing.    He is also an actor. John and I also wanted to act. Elizabeth joined late so to find her a role, we gave her the voiceover role that was going to be for John. We will all be cameraman.  We will be using our phones to record (except for Kristian's because it is too old). I also have a drone that we will use.  Because of its piano, we will film at the stage in the school's auditorium and outside of an office building. Kristian and John said that they have the necessary props and costumes, including a briefcase, suit, and coat.

 Question 1         The extract from Agent Carter gives the ideology of women power and mistreatment/ inequality. several elements of the film further emphasizes this.          In the opening of the extract, close ups of Carter reveals her tearful frowning face. This implements the loss of Steve, who we can understand to be someone special to her and most likely treated her equally. This makes the audience feel pity and sorrow. the general color of blue, seen in the lights and picture frame of Steve, further sets the mood of sorrow and loss, not just for Steve's death but also for the mistreatment Carter receives at her job.          The fade-out transition is given, setting the scene of Steve's death to black. the shift to black signifies death and leaves the viewers to their thoughts. The black also symbolizes negativity, foreshadowing negative atmosphere our protagonist is in. This transition is also used...
