Brakage's Window Water Baby Analysis

190 Words1 Page

My first thought about Brakage’s Window Water Baby was that the clip gave off the effect of an amateur home video. Then as I looked more closely, I realized the great angles used. The great focus, intense close up shots, and the visual effects used to produce the warm colors. What was more significant was that Brakage explored an area that most people attempt to keep a secret, childbirth. People may perceive this film as pornography or hard to view, because most people are not accustom to viewing childbirth footage. I think the clip is unique and interesting as well as an informative clip to watch. Mothlight is a collection of moth wings, flower petals, and grass. My first thought was the clip reminded me of a film fast forwarding.

    Jaws has a lot of film techniques but the ones that stood out to me the most were really exciting like the eye level shot, where the woman is in the water and all you see is her face and some people swimming behind her. She appears to be pretty calm in the start but then she sees he 's sharks fin out of nowhere. The camera then points to to the shark fin. Then the eye level shot points back to her where she makes the expression that she would have if a real shark were to be there, which gives us a feel for what we would do if we were in her place.

    Both moths represent a symbol. In order to get her message across, Dillard uses the moth as a symbol for writers. She claims that the moth enlarged ¨the circle of light in the clearing and creating out of the darkness the sudden blue sleeves of my sweater.¨ The enlarging of the flame in the candle acts as a symbol to how writers inspire their audience. While on the other hand, Woolf claims that her moth is a day moth.

    Street and commercial photography are two very different styles with different intentions yet they sometimes have a few things in common. These two styles can be portrayed in so many different ways. I will be comparing and contrasting the work of Zun Lee, a street photographer who specialises in portraiture and Matthew Coughlin, a commercial photographer who also specialises in portraiture. Portraiture may be a standout platform amongst the most established types of visual representation. A portrait is a picture about an individual; it may be a painting, photograph or an other alternative representation.

  • What Is The Central Message Of Blackfish

    1109 Words  | 5 Pages

    The filmmakers employ emotive language to evoke strong emotions from the viewers. Phrases like ‘he basically just completely mutilated that poor girl’ elicit feelings of anger and sympathy towards Dawn and contribute to the negative portrayal of SeaWorld and its treatment of its trainers. Their use of quick cuts, including an underwater point-of-view shot, creates a sense of panic and fear, simulating what Dawn might have experienced during the incident. By juxtaposing this with shots of a whale thrashing around, the filmmakers imply that the whale's actions were directly responsible for Dawn's death, appealing to viewers' emotions and attributing blame to SeaWorld for their abuse toward Tilikum prior. The graphic presentation of medical findings with zoom-ins also further emphasizes the severity of the incident and serves to strengthen the emotional impact on the audience.

  • Raising Arizona Cinematography Analysis

    One of the massive aspects of movie making is the movement and angles at which the camera is held. One film that does a great job of creating this form of cinematography is Raising Arizona, directed and produced by the Coen brothers. This fast paced crime comedy does an excellent job of capturing the audience’s attention by making them feel as though they are actually a part of the action. An example of the great camera movement is when the camera bobs up and down as it gets closer to the Arizona’s house, this creates the effect that the viewer is actually the person who is approaching the house.

  • A Feminist Perspective Of Alfred Hitchcock's Rear Window

    1460 Words  | 6 Pages

    Laura Mulvey is a feminist film theorist from Britain who is known for her essay on visual pleasures in narrative cinema. Being inspired by Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan’s ideology combined with psychoanalysis, Mulvey comes up with the ‘Male Gaze Theory regarding sexual objectification on women in the media. The male gaze is the way in which the visual arts and the literature portrays women and world from a masculine point of view presenting women as objects of male pleasure regardless of being heterosexual male or female, thus the formula of cinema becomes comprised of “women ad image, man as bearer of the look.” The male gaze consists of three different gazes: - look of the camera that records the film, - the look of the characters in the film and – the look of the audience that views the film. Mulvey then went on to classify women’s role on film functions “on two levels: as erotic objects for the characters within the screen story, and as erotic objects for the character within the auditorium.”

  • A Secret Lost In The Water Analysis

    Sometimes the relationship between two generations is very complicated. “My Father Is a Simple Man” by Luis Omar Salinas and “A secret Lost in the Water” by Roch Carrier explore these universal themes, the greatness of love together with the unavoidability of conflicts between two generations through the depiction of the speakers’ personal experience with their fathers. In “My Father Is a Simple Man”, the speaker expresses his love for his father deeply by highly complimenting that his father has sincere “kindness and patience” (Salinas 23) to take the speaker on “lifelong journey” (Salinas 9-10). In the end of the poem, the speaker firmly believes that he should “have learned” (Salinas 36) something from his father which states a manifestly

    Winnie and The Everlasting Water “ The brave may not live forever, but the cautious never live at all by”-Allison Moulton. In the beginning of the story Winnie runs away to find the forever living Tucks. Later Winnie finds out that the spring water made you immortal. In my opinion, I think Winnie should not have drunk the water because Winnie would have to watch her loved ones die, the population would increase, and Winnie would have to keep the secret to herself forever about the spring water. To begin with, Winnie should have not drunk the water because she would have to watch her loved ones die.

  • The Shape Of Water Analysis

    798 Words  | 4 Pages

    The ponderous, mythical opening of visionary auteur Guillermo del Toro’s Oscar-winning film The Shape of Water gently guides us into its unique blend of horror and romance, surrounded by the same magic del Toro effortlessly captured in its spiritual predecessor, Pan’s Labyrinth from 2006. In the age of superhero blockbusters, endless sequels and reboots, del Toro’s sensual adult fantasy manages to make its voice heard amidst the cacophony of studio demands and creative restriction. Set during the height of the Cold War in Baltimore 1962, the film follows the journey of mute custodian Elisa Esposito (played with aplomb by Sally Hawkins), who works at a high-security government research facility, and a amphibious humanoid creature captured from South America. Elisa proves that vulnerability is not a sign of weakness, that she doesn 't need to hide her identity under cynical facades; there is a nuanced strength at
