rear-projection (mise-en-scene)

-
What are four types of space? (mise-en-scene)
- 1. deep space
- 2. frontality
- 3. matte shot
- 4. shallow space
-
deep space vs shallow space (mise-en-scene)
- deep space: significant elements of an image are positioned both near to & distant from the camera
- shallow space: image is staged with very little depth creates ambiguity, looses reality
-
frontality (space, mise-en-scene)
staging of elements to face camera head on
-
matte shot (space, mise-en-scene)
2 images ie background & foreground are combined into a single image

- 4. shallow focus
- 5. depth of field
- 6. exposure
- 7. zoom shot
-
Three aspects of framing? (cinematography)
- 1. Angle of Framing
- 2. Level of Framing
- 3. Wide Angle Lens
-
Deep vs shallow focus (quality, cinematography)?
- shallow focus: restricted depth of field, i.e. close-up, suggests introspection
- deep focus: similar to deep space, but both aspects in focus
-
Depth of field (quality, cinematography)?
the distance through which elements in an image are in sharp focus
-
Under-exposed vs over-exposed? (quality, cinematography)
- under-exposed: dark image
- over-exposed: light image
-
Zoom shot? (quality, cinematography)
- focal length of lens changes while zoom is in progress
- used at the beginning of a scene to introduce a character
-
Wide Angle Lens (Framing, cinematography)
short focal lens, exaggerates distance between foreground and background
-
Six different scales? (Cinematography)
- 1. extreme long shot
- 2. long shot
- 3. medium long shot
- 4. medium close up
- 5. close up
- 6. extreme close up
-
Extreme long shot (cinematography)
Building, landscape, crowd of people
-
Long shot (cinematography)
full person nearly fills height of screen
-
Medium long shot (cinematography)
4-5 feet fills the screen vertically
-
Medium close-up (cinematography)
Person from the chest up fills the screen
-
Close up (cinematography)
head fills the screen
-
Extreme close up (cinematography)
just one part of the body
-
5 different movements? (cinematography)
- 1. Crane shot
- 2. Handheld camera
- 3. Pan
- 4. Tilt
- 5. Whip pan
-
Crane shot (movement, cinematography)
moving camera above ground, sense of omnicience
-
Pan (movement, cinematography)
- camera body turns right or left
- immediately connects two places or characters
