    Good use of jump cutting between the two parallel scenes. Framing is tight and there is some variety of camera angles. Storyline is clear and sound is used in an interesting way.

Hot Fuzz Scene Analysis: Kill the Messenger

Image
Here is my analysis of the death of Tim Messenger in the film "Hot Fuzz". Here is the link to the video I used: v=BavTQmiA9mc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BavTQmiA9mc WARNING: This clip contains a high amounts of gore. This is Tim Messenger. He comes to Nickolas Angel (Simon Pegg) and tells him that he wants to talk about George Merchant: a character who died earlier in the film. The remains of his death were dismissed as an accident, but Nick suspects it to have been a murder. Tim's name referrers to his role as a messenger, and whatever message he was going to deliver (before his rude interruption at the end of the clip) would be useful for clearing up any doubt surrounding Georges death. He asks Nick to meet him at the church at 3. His hasty request and exit combined with his worried face hint that he fears that what he wants to tell Nick might put him in danger. The fact he wants to go to a place where no-one else is likely to be tells us that anyone other t

Finished Film Evaluation

Link to Horror Film: Hide and Seek Hide and Seek is the name of my variation of a horror film I (Alex Harris) worked on with Alex McNally. It's a short film of sorts, but it serves as a trailer or prologue of a larger story. That larger story is that a detective landed a killer in prison prior to the events of the movie. The killer (Alex Harris) escapes by the time the film starts and is now hunting the detective's son (Alex McNally) and the detective has to save his son from the killer. While not stated outright, the backstory is hinted at during the short film. Specifically, with the whiteboard in the killers hideout.  For instance, the left side of the whiteboard shows a picture of the detective (Alex McNally with a hat and fake moustache) a line between the detective and the half picture of the son, (meaning that there's a link between the two characters) and a school (the sons location) the killer wrote "bad" next to the picture of the detective, meanin

Media in my life

Recently I have been thinking about how much I use media in my day to day life. When I thought about it, I really do use it way more then I previously thought. For a start, I spend a lot of my spare time playing online video games and endlessly browsing the internet for hours on end. While I cannot say that this is especially healthy of me, the media allows me to communicate with everyone else in the world and see their opinions and creations, and it also lets me drive complete strangers to madness from across the world (I can be annoying to play against in DotA 2. That probably means that I’m doing it correctly.) It also lets me know when new games or films come out or if something else of interest happens, as I can check on official websites, Facebook or YouTube to see if anything new has happened. It has also helped me when I want to see a film by allowing me to order tickets online, but I don’t go to watch films on a day-to-day basis.  One form of media I definitely don’t us
