Analysis Of Fallen angels

 



During the production of Chungking express, wong kar wai wanted to originally create a third storyline to portray hong kong however due to time complications he was unable thus leading to the creation of wong kar wais 5th Film fallen angels. to me, I believe that fallen angels can be seen as a love letter towards hong kong as it critics the atmosphere that the city had over the period when great Britain had handed over the rule of the region to mainland China. themes of loss and remembrance play a major role within this film to depict the life he saw hong kong would soon lead due to the events at the time. Similar to the production of chunking express, the film was produced over a short period with the script being written in the morning and shooting in the night. stylistic features are that a majority of this film is shot with a wide-angle lens to emphasize the sensation seen within the characters throughout the film. fallen angels, compared to its predecessor, takes a more minimalistic and experimental approach to the film with at first screening audiences would be highly confused. he creates a dream-like atmosphere with various different personalities in a densely populated and overwhelming hong kong. a personal favorite scene within this film is when a character solemnly talks about the passing of his father. as the scene progresses you can see him reminiscing upon memories he had with his father. this scene alone represents wong feelings upon hong kong

Research Into The Development of Editing

Early Editing  In the present day, editing in film has various purposes: it aids in the telling of a storey, it creates a mood or atmosphere, and it contributes to the overall success of a film or video. Short films used to be one lengthy, static shot in the beginning. Early filmmakers were afraid of combining multiple shots of different items taken from different perspectives and locations because they feared it would confuse an audience. In the early 1900s, the first films with some type of editing were made. Edwin S. Porter's film "The Great Train Robbery," which he wrote, directed, and produced, is a significant milestone in editing technique. Griffiths, Eisenstein, and Kuleshov are among the most well-known film experimenters. D. W. Griffiths is regarded as the founder of narrative cinema; he pioneered techniques such as parallel editing, which allowed him to push his films to new heights of intricacy. Griffith's films were highly valued by Soviet directors such ...

Evaluation of Development of Practical Skills Across Course

I feel I have been able to gain a range of practical skills during this year, which will assist me when I work in a professional atmosphere. I have been able to provide evidence of communication with my clients, completion of health and safety protocols, setting up lighting and camera equipment to a client-acceptable standard, completion of promotional work to a client-acceptable standard, completion of all pre-production and idea generating work to a client-acceptable standard, and I have also justified my design methods across all platforms. Communicating with a client  When I complete units that include the completion of work for a customer, I took care of the unit as if I were in a professional setting. whether i was successful at this is up for debate as some things i did well and some things didn't do too well. for example, i was able to provide my client my clear vision and schedule of what I wanted to create whilst showing the procedures i will have to take to make things p...

Evaluation of Editing Development Across Course

Efficiency: If I'm being honest, my efficiency during the start of the course was very poor. i was not leaving enough time to complete tasks and what needed to be done was all over the place. This was a standard i did not find acceptable, to stop this from happening in future modules i would create Gantt charts to allow me to be on top of thing within my projects. However, with this in my mind i still believe i was quite poor when it came around the end i was i will end up be more efficient with my planning instead of editing which ultimately to more problems. This change drastically when it came  down to the music video module as this is the only module that i don't feel as if it was rushed./ other than this i only finished to modules on time. Organisation: My organisation was poor as i believe that if i was more organised i could have produced more work for my modules a better standard, my organisation of clips and footage was kept on a hard drive with different folders for d...
