story schedule
date 9.12.23
cast: harry oisin josh ( pluh jimbo j-dawg)
location: st cathrines woods
possible goblins roam these woods
‘Invitation’ pre-production – George Blake
Possible filming locations:
Grosnez Castle:
“who shares my kingdom and walks by my side” – With the word ‘kingdom’ in mind I thought of possible locations to film based of this word, Seeing how Elizabeth castle is shut for the winter, Mont Orguiel Castle costs money, so therefore Grosnez Castle was the best option.
Grosnez Lighthouse:
“up the hill and moorland I go.” – With Hilly areas near by to the castle this fitted this quote from the poem.
MP3 Observation tower:
“Cramped by your doors and your walls I dwell.” – With the large MP3 tower it acts as a somewhat metaphor to this quote as the German occupation in WW2 had many people feel trapped OR “Cramped”.
Grosnez cliff path:
“Here to the wind-swept uplands ascend.” – With high winds being swept up from the sea, this location matched with this quote.
Story board:
trainspotting first response (3/11/2023)
Score – 7/10
Memorable Scene – For me the most memorable scene was at the nightclub where Mark first saw Diane walking out of the club. I think it was a really nice and romantic scene because previously in the film Marks life had been rough and this was his moment and sign of hope for him (despite the obvious age difference we see later on).

aesthetics
task 1 –
if a film has verisimilitude, it has realistic aspects with characters, plot etc. similar or true to real life
social realism in film aims to bring attention to real life socio-political conditions of the working class and the power structures behind them.
magic realism brings a sense of reality to otherwise fantastical themes by bringing in myths, fables etc. into contemporary social relevance.
hyperreality in film can be described as producing something that seems to be ‘more than real’ presenting the subject perfectly accurately.
task 2 –
iconography can be defined as symbols and visual motifs that may be reoccurring in a film that has certain cultural meaning beyond the place the element has on the screen.
intertextual referencing in film is the shared relationship between two texts, also relates to texts that have similar ideas or that take inspiration from other texts
visual/sound motifs are a recurring element in a film that supports the theme of the story
colour grading is the process of editing the colours of a film to improve the films stylistic feel, making it more visually appealing or making the films colours more vibrant
auteur trademarks, the word auteur is used to describe a director who exerts a high level of control across all aspects of a film
task 3 –
pathos – evokes an emotional response in the audience
bathos – starts serious then turns trivial
suspense -Suspense is typically coupled with feelings of anxiousness and anticipation, it isĀ used to keep an audience deeply engaged in what is occurring.
comedy – a play, movie, etc. of light and humorous character with a happy or cheerful ending
dramatic irony – when the audience knows something the character doesn’t
distancing effect – techniques used to distance and separate the audience from the emotional aspects on a film
