Ciudad de Dios

Describes the setting of a scene in a play or a film. It refers to everything placed on the stage or in front of the camera—including people. In other words, mise en scène is a catch-all for everything that contributes to the visual presentation and overall “look” of a production. When translated from French, it means “placing on stage.”

This is the art of photography and visual storytelling in a motion picture or television show. Cinematography comprises all on-screen visual elements, including lighting, framing, composition, camera motion, camera angles, film selection, lens choices, depth of field, zoom, focus, color, exposure, and filtration. Cinematography sets and supports the overall look and mood of a film’s visual narrative. Each visual element that appears on screen, a.k.a. the mise-en-scène of a film, can serve and enhance the story—so it is the cinematographer’s responsibility to ensure that every element is cohesive and support the story. Filmmakers often choose to spend the majority of their budget on high-quality cinematography to guarantee that the film will look incredible on the big screen.

El angulo de camara es muy bajo, creando un sentido de poder, como que nosotros somos las personas que estan siendo amenazado. Yo creo que esto simboliza la violencia que los menores en la favela estan expuesto a. Tambien hay un borde metallico que rodea la toma, como que esta reforzando el idea de que los chicos que naces en la favela no tienen un escape o una vida despues, un elemento del enmarcado. Los thress chicos tienes igual enfoce, que dice al espectador que los thres tienen igual significado en la toma.

Framing

Comments

El encuadre de esta toma es de un ángulo muy alto, que muestra la favela con casitas que aparecen bonitas y reguladas. La toma es muy larga (por una razón no me permite subir un video de la toma), pero enfoque mucho en las casitas y en el estado de la favela. El lente de la toma es muy ancho, que destaca las casas en lineas infinitas, que implica un sentido de desesperación y tristeza. La cosa muy interesante es que la toma contrasta en sol hermoso con la pobreza y la falta de recursos en la favela pobre.

Editing is the process of putting a film together–the selection and arrangement of shots and scenes. Editing can condense space and time, emphasize separate elements and bring them together, and organize material in such a way that patterns of meaning become apparent. In addition, editing can determine how a film is perceived: for instance, quick, rapid cuts can create a feeling of tension, while a long take can create a more dramatic effect. The first photoplays generally had no cutting, owing to the fact that they were single-reel films; once filming began, you could not stop until the film ran out.

Transitions

Comments

Yo quiero poner este toma para destacar todas las transiciones que aparece en este clip. 2. Osea que no hay solo 2 transiciones en esta parte de la pelicula que enseña los chicos jugando futbol. El escena, que dura como dos minutos, solo tiene un poco de transiciones. Esta escena es al principio cuando los chicos principales (Buscapé, etc), son niños, y estan jugando futbol felizmente antes que que toda la violencia ocurre. Para el espectador, esta escena es muy pacifico, y sirve como una calma antes de la tormenta de violencia que vamos a ver.
Duespues quiero enfocar en la segunda imagen de Buscapé disparando a una arma contrasta mucho con la primare escena. El escena arriba fue muy pacifico y no violento, y esta escena es lleno de cortes rapidos y disjuntos. Los tipos de cortes son cortes aplastantes, cortando a Buscapé, a la victima, a la naturaleza que los rodea, al alrma, a los reacciones, y mucho más. (Otra vez por un razon no me permite subir un video). Creo que el proposito del edición en este escena es enseñar la differencia entra los dos escenas, uno muy pacifico y otro muy violente.

Sound is an integral part in a film. It refers to everything that the audience hears including sound effects, words and music. Sound is used in films for various purposes, including: providing the information to the viewer about the location of the scene, heightening the mood, telling the audience about the characters and advancing the plot. Every person who watches a film realizes that the choice of voices, soundtrack and music present in a film affect the way that the viewer perceives a particular film. As a result, the sound is an important and integral element of the film, one that determines the way that the viewer experiences and understands a film as a visual experience.

Narrative analysis is an examination of the story elements, including narrative structure, character, and plot. A narrative can be considered to be the chain of events in a cause-effect relationship occurring in time and space. In order to analyze the narrative of a film, we need to first make the distinction between the plot of the film and the story of the film. This is sometimes referred to as the discourse and story of a film. Narrative may also be called the story thought story mainly refers to the events that describe the narrative.

Film genres are various forms or identifiable types, categories, classifications or groups of films. (Genre comes from the French word meaning "kind," "category," or "type"). These provide a convenient way for scriptwriters and film-makers to produce, cast and structure their narratives within a manageable, well-defined framework. Genres also offer the studios an easily 'marketable' product, and give audiences satisfying, expected and predictable choices. Genres refers to recurring, repeating and similar, familiar or instantly-recognizable patterns, styles, themes, syntax, templates, paradigms, motifs, rules or generic conventions.
