What was the filming process like? What worked and what didn't work? The filming process was kind of difficult because I had a blurry and unstable camera. When I created the rough draft for my film, I saw how the camera became so shaky and my film looked more like a narrative than a film opener. I went to borrow a better film camera and used a tripod that I own at home to stabilize and my shots look more defined. This is my Rough Draft:
"The Crossing" Discussion Post 10-22-2020 The filming used a lot of cinematic languages to give the viewer a feel of suspense and fear while watching it. During the opening cut of the film, there is a widescreen view of a woman entering a subway and calling someone. The scene then cuts to a close side-view of the woman, where we see her apologizing to someone, which would give the viewer suspense as to why she is apologizing and heading towards the subway. Then there is the scene where the camera shifts to different views of the woman walking in the subway hallway, possibly causing even more suspense in the viewer. As she walks in the hallway, she passes a creepy looking image on the wall. Then we see a close-up view of a man kicking his legs on the ground. Then we see a wide-view of the woman looking at his legs suddenly seem to "drop dead" and get dragged away behind a corner. This scene might cause the viewer to feel fear of the sudden mysterious movement
Do you agree with Zizek's view on viewing media text or Hall's view on interpreting media text? Use S.E.E to respond! Zizek's View Hall's View Zizek's says that media texts controls us and that we have no control of the actions we take as a result of watching said media text. Dominant, Oppositional, Negotiated Readings In some ways, I do agree with Zizek's point of view on media texts when he says that the media texts control our thoughts and actions. I do agree with the fact that media can change our thoughts and actions, but I believe that it is up to the viewer whether or not we want to act upon what we see in the media texts. I also agree with Hall's views on media texts with the types of readings a person could have. Any person could either have a dominant, oppositional, or negotiated understanding of a certain media text. This would link back to Zizek's view, depending on the type of reading a person has on a piece of media, it would influence
