Sound video feedback

- This is an excellent video that meets the brief impressively. The first half works well as contrapuntal sound - it got a laugh from me which is always a good sign. It's also a memorable choice of clip too.

- When the video switches over to Superman, it immediately feels more suited which shows this is a good use of parallel sound. The video therefore demonstrates your understanding of the media terminology. 

- The only EBI I can suggest is perhaps using a collage of clips from a range of films for each part of the video to further demonstrate your understanding of the relationship between sound and image.


WWW: I think the contrapuntal and parallel i've chosen contrasted each other each other and the music solidified it with both the scenes matching the music as intended.

EBI: Near the end of the contrapuntal clip the sound drops to silence for a little to long before restarting again. This audio transition could have been better and by making it shorter would make it a lot more smoother.

I have learned how sound can drastically change how a scene is perceived which can evoke different emotions to the audience. Sound or the lack of sound can have a numerous amounts of effects with the use of contrapuntal or parallel. Additionally, one piece of music that has a specific tone can be put in conjunction with other types of motifs or genre if done right.

Blog Feedback

  WWW: You started really well with the film poster analysis and your mise-en-scene analysis tasks. I really like the choice of still image to analyse and you’ve also picked out some good elements of the mise-en-scene in the Get Out scene. You’ve written in some detail for those first two blog tasks and that’s something you want to continue and build on as the course develops because A Level is a very demanding standard. EBI: The isolation and illness going around this half-term have made things very tricky but it’s now crucial that we get back on top of the workload because constantly being behind makes for a tough year. You are missing four pieces on the coursework side but I’m confident you’ll be able to catch those up over half-term. Remember, for the mise-en-scene recreation you can now simply submit detailed planning rather than the full video. In terms of your analysis work, the key feedback is regarding the depth and detail required at A Level – just as you demonstrate in your

Music video- The specials: Ghost town

1) The writer links the song back to cinematic soundtracks in order to reflect and engender anxiety  2) 2 Tone emerged from the mod and punk subcultures in a stylistic sense. Its foundations were ska and the related Rocksteady. 3) The social contexts that were discussed regarding the late 1981 was that England was hit by a recession and riots were breaking out across its urban areas. Young people, black and white, were deprived angry and forgotten. Left to fend for themselves, many of them were unemployed and got into pitch battles with the police. 4)I believe the most eerie thing about ghost town is the cold and empty environments with only the performers ever being on screen and whenever they give you a perspective outside it all seems cold and unwelcoming. Especially at the night portion of the video where this eerie feeling is a lot more intensified during scenes like they're shadows fighting. 5) The writer suggests that the meanings created from this music video are the mournf
