Parallel and Contrapuntal sound video

-

 Sound practical task:



First half: 

Parallel sound (music that is associated with the scene) is used as there are pictures of natures beauty which connotes happiness,joy,bliss and charm and alludes to the peaceful music that creates a serene atmosphere.

Second half:

Contrapuntal sound (music that is not usually associated with the scene) is used here as there are pictures of empty,gloomy and eerie dystopian landscapes which highly contrasts the calmness of the music and establishes an uncanny feeling.

Music:

Peaceful/relaxed

 For this video I've worked with Gurleen, Sandeep and Rukiya in order to create a sinister drama/crime scene.For this scene, we used a drama room to establish the idea of an interrogation happening. Sandeep acts as an authoritative figure who is trying to find out information from a crime scene. Whereas, I act as a suspicious suspect who's drunk and involved in gangs. Gurleen and Rukiya helped in filming these shots as much as possible and we all worked on editing independently so that we can create a film to our individual liking. SCRIPT .

SANDEEP You think this is funny? Where is the body? PRINCE...

 The Last Duel: sword fight scene There is a good portrayal of cinematography specifically in this scene because it is essential for building tension and also including the audience in the fight. Through the use of close ups during the duel, it perfectly emphasises the personal nature of the combat. This is because the audience is forced to focus on the actors' mean-looking facial expressions, therefore, easily identifying their physical and emotional strain. The perfect use of extreme close ups of the swords effectively accentuates the powerful impact that each strike has on something/someone. Within these close up shots, the camera occasionally zooms out in order to reveal the large scale of the fight which underscores the significance of the event. There are many different times where tracking shots have been used, for example, when the fighters are travelling on their horses to get to the other side. These tracking shots are effectively used to establish an atmosphere of motion...
