New media terms I have learnt



1. Tight framing- this is when the mise-en-scène is so carefully balanced and harmonized that the subject photographed has little or no freedom of movement.

 Example: Harry Potter

 2. Loose framing-  this is when the mise-en-scène is so spaciously distributed that the subject photographed has considerable latitude of movement.

 Example: Avengers- Infinity War

3. Deep space-  this is when significant elements of an image are positioned both near to and distant from the camera.



Example: Finding Nemo











4. Shallow space- this is when the image appears flat or two dimensional, because there is little or no depth.


Example: Finding Nemo





5. Depth of field- the distance between the nearest and the furthest objects giving a focused image.
Example: The Social Network

6. Shallow focus- this is is a photographic and cinematographic technique incorporating a small depth of field. In shallow focus one plane of the image is in focus while the rest is out of focus. 

Example- The Proposal
Image result for what is shallow focus


 7. Arc shot- when the camera moves in a rough semi-circle around the subject.

Analysis of Summertime Sadness

Image
Song: Summertime Sadness by Lana Del Rey The song 'Summertime Sadness' is one of the singles released from Lana Del Rey's second studio album 'Born To Die'. Here I will use Goodwin and Vernallis to analyse this song and its conventions. Goodwin The visuals appear to be illustrating/amplifying the lyrics - during the lyrics 'Tonight I wore a red / Dancing in the moonlight pale / The beauty queen hair style / Remove heels, you feel like reborn', the visuals show the actress wearing a red dress, throwing herself down from a high bridge. The lyrics of the song of the song, which are quite dreary and dark, reflects a dim and sad mood and atmosphere. Whilst most the lyrics are not mirrored through the visuals, some are such as the shot of the singer with the shadow of a telephone wire during the lyric 'Telephone wires above' Cinematography - the camera used has significant impact. They appear to have used either a super 8 camera or a grain fil...

NEA Music Video Research- my song choices

Song Choices Song 1: Ed Sheeran- Afire Love Ed Sheeran's record label is Atlantic Records- a subsidiary of Warner Music Group. Typically, Ed Sheeran's audience consists of males and females with ages ranging from 15- 26 years old. However, it could fit my target audience, 30-49 year olds, as the song discusses a generic theme- love. Ed Sheeran's main musical influences have been The Beatles, Nizlopi and Eminem. The song itself, Afire Love, is a love song based on his grandparents’ relationship and his grandfather's Alzheimer's. Song 2: Drake ft Michael Jackson- Don't Matter to me Drake's record label is Young Money, an imprint of Cash Money Records founded by Lil Wayne, which is distributed by Republic Records which is a division of Universal Music Group . OVO Sound is Drake's own record label alongside two other people and operates as a subsidiary of, and is distributed through, Warner Music Group's Warner Bros. Record...
