Audience

Audience
Often research on audience is based on the response the film gets by the audience. They can see how popular a film is by the amount of tickets sold at the box office to see how much a success and how popular the film is by doing this. Often when one film is very popular f a certain genre you will get a stream of similar films being released. For example if a vampire related film comes out and is extremely popular then you will often get several other vampire films released at a similar time.

Horror films are very popular in cinemas all round the world and create large amounts of money at the box office year after year. The majority of the audience are men between the ages of 15 and 45 they are often the target audience. People go to see films as they want to be affected, it may be that it makes them sad, happy or in this case frightened. Audiences are able to pay as little or as much attention as they like to the disturbing images that horror film have meaning thy can choose the effect it has on them. There is such a huge variety of horror films, gory, supernatural and tauter films which means there is something out thee for everyone to enjoy.

stop frame animation

 

I decided to try and do a stop frame animation to see how good and succesfull i could make it look to see if i should consider using it in my short film. I soon relised that the process of taking this many pictures toke a very long time to do and it was difficult to redo a section if the first time went wrong which was very frustrating. Another thing that was hard was getting the times right between each picture so that it looked fluent and clear. By doing this small test of me walking i relised that i didnt want to do this in my short film as i didnt think it would look as good as filming.

Review

Documentary analysis

Documentary is way of presenting factual material which spans film television, radio, theatre, and the press.
Documentary presents actual incidents and statements which can be tested against reality. Documentary has changed and developed throughout the history of film and tv, in tv it overlaps with categories such as currents affairs and news. In the history of film, the documentary offers an alternative to the fictional world created characters and clear narrative shape for film. QUOTE:the documentary is distinguished from the factual film by its socipolitical purpose. Great art can be an instrument for social influence and change. The documentary film does have this purpose. Unlike films with a fictional narrative, documentarys rarely are intended for entertainment only, they usually contain messages of educational, social and/or political importance.
Documentary films include: in the name of the father
Forms and conventions of a documentary
Documentary is way of speaking about the world. It cannot be tied down to specifics of character and storyline in the same way as a genre can. It is typified by:
· Natural lighting-to give a more authentic documentary feel to it-separates a documentary from Hollywood cinema
· Indistinct town
· Jerky camera movements-tripod sometimes not used

These forms and conventions can chage as new technologies are constantly being developed. The term ‘actuality’ is used to describe the shots of actual footage as they happened. The event would have taken place wether the camera was there or not. The term ‘fly on the wall’ filming is leaving the camera in an specific area for a length of time and the editing it later and incorporating it into the rest the documentary.
Film images are selected for their use in illustrating and evidencing an argument.
Voice over: the voice-over has a role of uncovering, solving a mystery and/or telling a story. It can be used to record thoughts, it can also be used by a narrator, who has specific knowledge and is shaing with the audience, it can have a ‘god-like’ quality to it.
Written text:the term documentary implies that what is presented is linked to written documents. Many use subtitles, reference to time and place, and the appearance with written documents in the frame.
