Film Openings

I saw this on the chief examiners blog (pete) and thought it would be incredibly useful for when we are making our 2 minute opening films.

Interesting Adverts

I love how they have the guy walking toward the camera, In many different places and he is in the same spot. This made the advert memorable for me and very creative, And we could use this idea when thinking of film ideas.







Favourite things

My favourite film - Well it is a choice between Harry Potter and the goblet of fire or Sherlock Holmes: Game of shadows because I love they action in the films and the way they filmed the movies.
Another is 4.3.2.1 because I liked the way the storyline came together in the end an they done that using a type of montage.

My favourite Actor- My favourite actor is Liam Neeson as he stars in some of the best action films and is such an experienced actor, who is so versatile in his acting !

Most memorable film- Matilda as I love the storyline so much as well as the way they filmed it from the novel and created the magic, or any Disney film as they made me happy to watch any of them. I also love The hangover I and II as they are so comic and brilliant.

Most memorable line from a film- "I will look for you, I will find you and I will kill you" from Taken.



Previous video's

In fridays lesson we watched many previous AS Media studies videos, my favourite video's include prey for me and Heroine. In 'heroine' I liked the camera angles and shots and with prey for me I loved the storyline and the way it was filmmed.






John Lewis Advert

The John Lewis advert is very useful in terms of the split screen. It also complies with the 180 degree rule that we learn't on friday. The advert is very good and is memorable.
