A DepicT! Short which I liked

By -


I really like the DepicT! Film, Cool Unicorn Bruv as I felt that the acting was strong; a comical vibe and narrative was consistent throughout, as well as some great composition within the frames. I thought they used the shot reverse shot sequence really well as the characters interacted with each other. I really enjoyed the language and dialect used in they region which they were trying to create. It helped to make the film feel immersive. I thought the ending was really well put together. They added a special effect, the rainbow shot out of the horn, which was talked about earlier in the narrative making the continuity stronger. Not only this, but the bike seller's reaction made it feel as if the unicorn was nothing special despite its mythological status. In fact, the  At the start of the video, I thought it was interesting how they showed a wide angle establishing shot, cut to an over the shoulder shot and then back to another wide angle shot. When I was watching I was expecting a shot revers shot sequence at this point however, they mixed it up a bit which was good to view.

Connotations of TV News Starting Sequences

TV news starting sequences from all around the world often contain all of these elements. Firstly we often see rushing graphics or camera movements in the news which often connotes a sense of urgency and importance. We also see transparent objects, such as a globe, or eyes which symbolises an unbiased and unchanged view of the news which they are reporting from a neutral perspective. Another common feature of TV news sequences is a view of the world from space. This connotes that they cover all four corners of the globe when it comes to finding stories, information and important news. This is then further enhanced by images or videos from different, well known landmarks from a multitude of cities around the world. This amplifies the idea of covering news from every region around the world. Clocks are used to give a sense of urgency, importance and that it's fresh in from the field. This is often shown with either graphics of clock faces or clockwise wipes. T

Photos Connotation Exercise

Purity We used water in this photo to show purity. The reason for this was because water has strong connotations of purity, life and clean living. We placed the bottle on the grass to also help draw forth this idea of purity. Furthermore, the colour green produced by the grass is often associated with being ECO Friendly , recycling and nature; all of these things connote purity. The bottle is placed slightly on the right of the frame to help give the image balance. The camera angle is level with the bottle. This was chosen because we wanted to avoid giving the perception of power from the angle, whereas, by keeping it level, it keeps things humble . Strength This image shows strength through very literal reasons as well as some hidden semantics. The guy in the photo is lifting weights ,which after repetition, commitment and hardwork, you increase as well as define muscle. This dedication shows that the individual has to have strength in his personality as well as body

Various theories have been suggested, including: a viral or bacterial infection problems with the immune system an imbalance of hormones psychiatric problems, such as stress and emotional trauma Some people are thought to be more susceptible to the condition because of their genes, as the condition is more common in some families. More research is needed to confirm exactly what causes the condition. Treatm
