Freaky Friday - Film Review

Freaky Friday is a comedy for the family which is about a mother and daughter who do not get along, they end up having a argument whilst out for dinner one night and happen to switch bodies for one day. They cant find a way to switch back so they have to adapt to each-others lifestyle until they can find a solution which also helps them begin to understand one another and form a better and stronger relationship.

This is one of my all-time favourite films as it is so enjoyable for everyone in the family. Almost every scene contains a moment of laughter or a something that you can relate too which makes aspects of this film so relatable.

CINEMATOGRAPHY and What I have learnt...

Image
Over the past couple of lessons we have been learning about cinematography which is camera work. I've learnt that different styles of filming have developed since the technology has increased and we are able to mirror the things we actually see onto the camera. I've also learnt that the camera man uses different types of shots because they have different impacts on the viewer (emotion) There is two key elements to cinematography: - Framing of a shot (what we can see on screen) e.g. close shots & longshot (landscape) - Movement of the camera e.g. tilting the camera and zooming.

 In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge forms and conventions of real media products? Above are 9 key frames from my film opening – Insiders. I will refer to them throughout my evaluation from frame 1-9, reading left to right. At the beginning of my opening, we made and edited a film ident as seen in frame 1. This ident relates to our film as the ‘clank / whoosh’ we used to suggest our film opening has an interesting story line and is different as it is not the normal jingle. The use of the pink font and the grey background suggests that our target audience is not just men but we are also targeting females. In the first 30 seconds of our film opening we set the scene with an establishing shot walking through Covent garden, which confirms the romantic comedy convention used in most films nowadays. We were inspired to add the title of the location and time onto the shot, to remind the audience that this film opening although romantic, is part of the

Camera Techniques

180 degree rule two characters in the same scene should keep the same left/right relationship to one another. When the camera passes over a invisible line connecting the two characters it becomes a reverse shot, because the camera will be viewing things in reverse to what it should be. Match-on-Action This is where the editor cuts from one shot to another view which matches the first shots action Shot Reverse Shot This is a technique where one character is shown looking at another character and then the other character is shown looking back at the first character.
