Genre research: comedy and Romance

 

Comedy

Common Cams

-Zoom show a character from far distance, establishing shot, intro to a show, master shot to include entire group talking and cracking jokes etc., Close-up shot to show a small portion of a face. Tracking to show a character being dramatic, Hand held to increase dramaticness

Common Clamps

Costumes would consist of normal clothing or something extremely crazy, never in between. Lighting would be bright never dark or eerie, that the horror genre. Acting would mainly consist of the characters doing stupid stuff or talking to each other during a master shot. No makeup. Props could be just normal stuff nothing to crazy, focusing on the characters. Setting could be someone's apartments like the show friends

Common Editing

Shot/Reverse shot to show to characters talking, Parallel editing because maybe a character is doing something totally different from the other guy who is doing it correctly

Common sound

Non-diegetic sounds used when characters say something funny and there is an invisible audience who laughs after each joke that is made to increase the dramticness

Elements I dislike and like

Nothing really i don't like i always enjoy watching comedy films especially for some reason the background laughing, i dont know why i just like it

Romance

Common CAMS

Master shot including both the characters like kissing or something, High angle so show the love scene from an angle to spice it up, close up to emphasize the thing that is going on, pan to show the characters walking together by a lake in the dark or something, holding hands

Common CLAMPS

Costumes could be just normal clothing, lighting could be dark if love scene, or dark when walking on the beach alone to emphasize how alone the two characters are. Acting would be very good because it shows like sex in real life but they really not doing it just faking. Props and setting could be a beach or bedroom

Common editing

Eyeline match, dissolve, reverse shot

Common sounds

Sound the characters would make so diegetic, or non diegetic if there's a violin in the background or singing while the walk or make love

Elements i dislike and like

I don't like anything about this genre I think it is weird and for perverts, its disgusting really.

Editing blog music video

  For editing my music video i first had to cut down some of my parents. All together i probably recorded like 5 minutes worth of footage, so i had to cut that down to like 1 minute. Before submitting, since i had extra time and everything I wanted to impress Cambridge, so i tried to do some special effects on my video, like the gif that follows below, like when the camera is still focused on the face, but moves side to side relatively fast. While recording i was kind of a little bit running out of ideas for what to actually to include in the video so i may have a little bit of filer, shots that aren't really that necessary. Moreover, during my editing phase in addition to cutting out scenes, i has to cut out entire scenes because i realized that i actually had way to much filer, like scenes that weren't me, so i had to change that up and put myself in most of the scenes. And this is supposed to be in my filming blog, but while recording my song for hotline bling, i realized th

  So, finally i finished, the masterpiece is complete. I know i said i wanted it as a movie film, but it probably wont look like it. I filmed it and everything, it isn't the best but i give it like a 8 out of 10, i didn't have the godly camera, i couldn't take it outside because the day i went to my friends house it was raining so that was the first L. However, with the power of editing, and a good editing software, i hope i can make that 8 a 10. I filmed the video and everything, all is going smoothly, but i feel like i haven't filmed enough for some reason. That is pretty much the only problem i have right now. With premier pro I'm going to make the quality better, sound effects, background music, and everything to bring the best out of this video. All the pan and other film terminologies are incorporated in this video, I'm tryna do split screen but I'm not sure how that is gonna work. I need more time in my vid so i was gonna split it up into two separate
