This is my video analysis for The Quiet Place
Intro
The movie is called "A Quiet Place" and it shows condition of an apocalyptic world where the city is abandoned by everyone and many supplies are left behind. The producer wants the audience to have the sense of isolated. They did this by showing us how lifeless the place is by using a range of camera shots, such as close up shot - to capture the ruined street lamps signalling that it is no longer operating or taken care, long shot - to capture how deserted the city has become, and medium shot - to capture the missing people posters, where that appears to be an impact for the city. Also with static camera movements, it can show something without having any movement involved. This means that this movement is use because there is nothing moving motorically to be shown, for example people walking or riding vehicles, another way to show that the city is completely left behind.
Paragraph 1
The city condition is not only messed up but also tranquil. The filmmaker wants the audience to feel more involved and a little bit anxious with the silent as they don't know when will the real danger comes, with adding less sounds (both diegetic and non) in the scene to make it more suspenseful and making audience to produce less motion
- You don't need to put the technical elements in the intro, just mention the big ideas. The evidence goes into the paragraph 1.
ReplyDelete- Be specific with the evidence, what diegetic and non-diegetic sounds were used? What meaning did they add?
