Last Blog Post

One thing I came to enjoy during this semester was blog post. It gave me new info and a way to express my opinion on the internet. One of my favorite post was the Obama ingratiation. Where we talked about what we could analyze in a photo. i knew it was an important peace of history but the photos should a lot of emotion and visual aspect of things.
My other favorite blog topic was assignment 5. Because it allowed me to go in depth about animated Disney films and decyfer their alternative means. And explain the way they effect children mind. that also dealt with the way Disney movies portrayed diversity, and how their stereotypes were a little over board.
By doing the blog post on topics i learned different concepts of knowledge.I liked how it was once a week and then we talked about it on Thursdays.

Disney Film Discussion

I saw a lot of Disney films as a kid and yeah I was a little uneasy about how they stereotype their characters. But In all I think they just made their movies based on pure entertainment, because to tell the truth anything they do would basically have some sort of flaw that people would find. And I also think people who accuse Disney of something, are basing their facts on their own personal agenda.

Assignment 5 - Visuality and culture progress

One more possibility that interest me in the finals would be maybe emotion. Because emotions can be seen and described by facial features. Or by sound even a t most. Emotions could be an example when our president Barack Obama had his ingratiation and people were crying, letting their emotions out of how happy or sad they felt about the event.

Black Hawk Down: Response on Setting Presentation

The presentation by Heather and Megan on setting were both well done. They both were very informative on their topic. They gave of a vive that they know what they were talking about. Megan went very in depth about the first two minutes of her presentation on scene 16 "Two-man rescue squad". Like how the soilders cover behind a burned car. Heather hit on the importance of the setting say " The setting put the scene in motion".

Black Hawk Down Part 2

Compostion Framing is the topic that I will be using for my presentation. The scene that I will be using for my assignment is Scene 16, "Two-man Rescue Squad". My first impression of the scene was engaging because the angle and way the had every clip mad you seem like you were right there in the action. My scene and topic go great with each other because the theme is framing meaning how the camera is angle and how long every clip is. The scene I;m using is great because it shows many angles of the soilders and it can be dramatic and action packed at times.

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.
