Behind Locked Doors- storyboards

Photo Story Board




What was the task?: The task was to upload my story boards (drafts 1,2 & 3) onto my blog so that I will always have access to them, even if I loose the handheld copies.

What did you learn from it?: I learned how to draw a storyboard, and of the importance of the process when it comes to creation of a film. Uploading it to my blog was a reminder to take advantage of the technology I have access to, to benefit me and make my life easier.

The Lychee Scene - Kevin

-
How useful has an ideological critical approach been in understanding the narrative resolution of your chosen films? (When looking at the films from a perspective of intense study, what can you find about the director's ideologies of feminism etc) Cinematography: -The scene begins with a shot of a reflection of Kevin eating in the glass table. There are two different ways that Kevin is seen by his parents. It is a reminder to the audience that Eva is reconfiguring the past. -Kevin is positioned centre frame, the audience's gaze is directed towards him, this reflects that Kevin's status and power is dominant over both of his parents. When Eva is in the Diner, she is on the edge of the frame, maybe because she is being separated from Kevin, this makes her an unbalanced person. There is a lot of dead space within the frame, isolating Eva in the present moment. Contrastingly, she is in the centre of the frame in the breakfast sequence which shows her strong similarit...

-Auteur DEFINITION:  a [film director/actor etc.. but generally director] who influences their films so much that they rank as their author. Auteur theory, questions who the real writer and producer are in films, and insinuates that we should attribute authorship to a group of people Forman's signature features:        Casual informality of camera framing and angles, suggestive of documentary -        Seemingly spontaneous ‘candid (caught off guard, the opposite of set up intentionally or staged) camera’ style -        Social analysis – strong critiques of bureaucracy ( The Fireman’s Ball ) -        Allegory (symbolic narrative) or satire (mockery) strongly underpinned by ‘realism’ -        Earlier works made use of non-professional actors and semi-improvised dialogue to present a view of working...

cinematography: shot so that the spectator can see from Ben's perspective. Handheld camera and shallow depth of field to pick out individual characters. Muted colour palette reflects the staid atmosphere of the scene. Ben sits at the end of the table in a place of authority. He has dominion over the situation. Comparative shots, between the two lifestyles with the cutaways to gage the reactions of the uncle and aunt. Lots of closeups and use of shallow depth of field. We align with the cash family. Costume differences between the families. Setting: characters being anomalous within the suburban setting. Proxemics within the frame At this point in the film we are aligned as a spectator with ben who is against the heart of US ideology. It attacks the education system in america. Dissident film:  a person who opposes official policy, especially that of an authoritarian state. The setting places a complete outsider into a literal representation of US ideology. The han...
