Black Hawk Down for Eng 212

The scene that I choose for Black Hawk Down was, part 12/16 on Youtube.com

In the scene you start off seeing an American soilder on a walkie talkie with a another soilder who I assume is a squad team leader. While they talk they cut out at one point to show their environment, which is to show the their surrounding and get the audience more engaged into the movie. Then they show another soilder thats with the guy who has the walkie talkie disable an enemy soilders gun and take his bullets to either make sure the enemy soilders doesn't get more ammo. During the process of taking the gun ammo you can see very well how nervous the soilder is because he is shaking, this is suppose to make the audience have a sense that it is more realistic with the scene. Also the camera angle is as if your looking from the ground up when the gun ammo is being taking.

After that scene you see three American soilders talking about how to move from one area to another. One of the American soilders can't hear well and is repeatedly being told the plan hoping he hears them. The camera angle in this scene is up close to see their facial expressions, and the details in the face like sweat, dirt, drowsy eyelids. The way I came to a conclusion that one of the soilders couldn't hear was he would yelled "What!!".

When the three soilders where moving the their new area. They contacted theirs squad leader and asked him and his fellow soilders to cover them. So they were going one at a time trying quickly move to cover. Now during the time they were moving one at a time the camera angle was you could see the whole environment and the soilders runnig.This camera angle was used to show the big picture of the surrounds like the street, house, food stands, and etc. After two soilders got to the area under their squad leader, you can see a clip where one of the enemy soilders see the American soilders and they start to shoot when the last soilders was running to cover. When that American soilder was getting shoot they had the camera behind him so the audience would know where he was shot which was in the back against something that made his back start to spark.

The camera angle for when a fellow American soilder tried to help him was him getting shot in the leg in sort of slow motion and you could actually see and hear the bullets enter his body. So the audience feels how painful it must have felt. Then there is a gun fight, while a medic America soilder tries to remove the bullet in the injured soilders. During this clip you see the camera shaking to show how dreastic the situation is, and how time is if the essence. While trying to to wrap up the wound blood gushes out squirting on others face, the camera is showing medium shots which show top of the body to near the stomach area of the body.

Those are the main points I got from the first 3-4 minutes of that entire clip.

Moving Images

My overall reaction was typical since i watch movies during the weekends. And some comedy / reality T.V. shows.The high pints were the movies because the were more in depth and had an atmosphere to them. The low points would be regular rerun shows like MTV Viva La Bam.The movie The Shawshank Redemption because it a sort of related to you in some way. Moving images are important becasue they capture motion which a photo can't do.

Consumer product for English 212

The consumer product that I choose was Axe deodorant body spary "Dark temptation". The product itself produces a fragrance of what women love most...chocolate. An aroma of chocolate with fresh gourmet scents, which is hard to resist. The bottle itself applies to the consumer to take a look at at it, with it's swirly design and color.

Assignment #3 Postsecret

Tell people that they don't understand the real you. Also when people are mislead by what you say. The image is of houses in California. Maybe what their trying to say is people don't take you serious in big states like California.
