Reservoir Dogs and Lock Stocks media comparison.

The beginning scene in Reservoir Dogs opens in with the characters eating. This signifies unity within the group; this is a typical gangster scene. Not until everyone is introduced we see that they are in a café.
they are all dressed in black and white they look like a typical gang, whereas if I didn’t know that Lock stocks was a gangster movie I would have thought it was something else. The only indication to gangster is the dodgy deals at the beginning. But the setting was a private place suggesting they don’t want to be seen.

In Reservoir Dogs they had a low tone, very typical gang style whereas In Lock Stocks they speak in cockney rhyme which suggests they are in England. This one is very rushed, you want to watch on. But Reservoir is more relaxed I wasn’t as drawn in. there is a definite leader in this is movie. But in Lock Stocks I could not see a leader.

My Team

Right! ello ello what's all this then? It is me introducing the members of my team. there is no 'I' in team. But rearrange the letters you get at me. As in my team has a go at me for not knowing how to work the camera. There goes my pathetic approach to being funny.

Firstly the evil master mind behind the camera, Jonny Keats. He was the one behind the camera during the perliminary task. He does not quite have the talent to keep a straight face when he is on camera, but i cannot complain i am the last person you should leave in charge of the camera. He will bring a steady hand to the camera, with his knowledge on how to use the camera will be very handy later in filming.

Then we have Jack Mason. What talent does he hold? Quite a lot actually, playing the part of an actor he is not camera shy and the camera in his face he can remain quite calm. He is the comedian behind this group and will always bring laughter to the project. He is behind great ideas and will create comical dialect in our project.

Then there is me. I don't use the camera, for obvious reasons so i act infront of the camera. i come up with ideas, the Scary Door was originally my idea that Jack and Jonny developed. I should be okay infront of the camera. Taking drama for A level i should be involving dramatical skills in my project

Preliminary Task tHE sCARY dOOR

Righty-ho the Preliminary Task
well we were asked to film and edit a character opening a door, crossing a room and sitting down in a chair opposite another character, with whom she/he then exchanges a couple of dialogue. We worked the idea of this around that but found it very boring but was important was that we needed to demonstrate match on action, shot/reverse shot and the 180-degree rule. So we thought I know, lets be special.
Basically our storyline character one, Jack Mason aka Macky walks up some stairs, opens the door walks through and *SPOILER ALERT*
He ends up in the class room! Shock horror! And there has a short conversation with Character two aka me and ends with me being very confused that I ended up outside after walking through the door.

The Filming
I did not operate the camera because I was acting, if you didn’t know because you didn't bother reading my previous paragraph or if you just have a really short memory, or if you just have a really short memory, or if you just have a really short memory. Right that is enough with the memory jokes!
Our first shot was one of an aerial view of Jack walking up the stairs then we pan around him walking then opening a door. The next shot was an extreme close up of Jack walking into the table. The next shot was an establishing shot of the room from Jack’s point of view. We then used over the shoulder, demonstrating the 180’ rule. This then changes to a long shot of me getting up and walking out the door. The last shot is a medium shot of me walking out the door outside and saying “whoa”.
Apart from the extreme close up of jack which was a bit to extreme the filming went well and the characters were positioned well but that extreme close up was to emphasise the leg hitting the table, we should have filmed match on action of that.
Editing
My final result, I liked it! It contained all that it needed to contain and was very entertaining. Everyone in my group is saying how tedious and boring editing was. To be honest I loved editing one of my favourite parts, without the editing it would be pretty shoddy. I presume that I just like the feeling of knowing how to edit and loved how the task turned out. After all the mistakes were taken out and after moving and cutting the clips, there were no more problems with continuity I think it was perfect for a beginner in this type of work.

Well their homepage, much information if you ask me. The colour, personally it makes me bored and doesn’t interest me in reading it. Light blue on white? Bad choice! Where’s the excitement? It’s Warner Bros! But to be fair it is organised very well, separated into Home, Movies Television etc.

so what can be said about this? Well to start well done I’m more drawn in by the images and white text on DARK blue, not LIGHT blue is a lot more easier to read, shame you couldn’t apply the same knowledge to your homepage.
