Pre-Production: Planning Document 1


             This document is from the pre-production planning document. Shown is the production logo and a further description of the logo. While creating the production logo me and my team wanted to make sure to include the horror aspect to the logo considering our film is a horror film. The blood drip and the red letters help add that thriller/horror aspect and give the effect that our production company produces horror/thriller films. The B on the logo helps stand for Bengal and that adds most personality and character to the logo.

Image
                   In this lesson the main goal was to  apply the camera work techniques and create the camera shots for the main concepts of camerawork, shot size, camera angles, camera  framing, and camera composition .

The four sections were: Section 1: Shot Sizes, Section 2: Camera Angles, Section 3: Camera Framing, Section 4: Camera Composition.

               In Exercise 2, We worked on a Semiotic analysis on the film, The Hunger Games. The movie takes place in the dystopian post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, where a boy and a girl are annually chosen as "tributes" and made to participate in the grandiose televised fight to the death known as the Hunger Games. In the Exercise the objective key concept of the lesson is to be able to recognize and define signs (visually and audibly) when analyzing media products for the following: Characters, Costumes, Acting, Setting, Color, Lighting, and Sound. In the scene that we watched we witnessed Katniss Everdeen's dress ignite in flames and change from a white dress to a black dress. The Connotative meaning of this is that when the dress ignites in flames it shows the start of a rebellion and the dress turning black connotatively represents the first major sign of the rebellion against the leader.

Image
                 In the Exercise 1 the key concept of the lesson was for students to be able to recognize and define signs when analyzing media products for Denotative and connotative meanings. Another element we defined and learned about was semiotics. Semiotics is the study of signs and their meanings and the interpretation of messages in a text. Furthermore, in Exercise 1 we learned about someone named Roland Barthes. Roland Barthes was a French literacy theorist, and his theory stated that there are more than one way to read a code and that a text has multiple meanings. Barthes analyzed the process and studied the relationship between denotation and connotation. Also, according to his theory anything in culture can be a sign and send a specific message. An example of his theory would be, when people look at red roses, they think that it signifies romance and love. This came from a Roman and Greek mythology and the red rose closely ti...
