What about a comedy film?

Hey Blog!

    I will now continue my research on different film genres, continuing with comedy!

Common Comedy Camera angles:

  • Close ups
  • Low angles
  • High angles
  • Over the shoulder shots

Common Comedy Mis-En-Scene:

  • Colorful set design
  • Physical props and visual jokes
  • Bright Lighting
  • Comedic timing
Common Comedy Editing:
  • Quick cuts
  • Jump cuts
  • Split screens
Common Comedy Sound:
  • Sound effects
  • Upbeat non-diegetic music
  • Comedic Dialouge
  • Silent comedic timing
Examples
    A few examples of movies in this genre include:
  • Legally Blonde, directed by Robert Luketic 
  • Turning Red, directed by Domee Shi
  • Clueless, directed by Amy Heckerling
  • The Polar Express, directed by Robert Zemeckis
  • Mrs. Doubtfire, directed by Chris Columbus
What I enjoyed
    I really enjoy the humor of comedy movies. I appreciate how the dialogue alone could change my mood in a positive manor.
    I dislike some of the exaggerated sound effects because I believe they are too much.

Planning Blog: More information

 Hey Blog!     Today to finish off my planning, I will discuss the location, actors/actresses, health regulation, and my schedule!     The media will be filmed at my house, Lauderdale by the Sea, and Playa Bowls.     I convinced my friends to act in the film, so here are their names and their roles.  Lucy Brown will play EMMA. Emma is one of the leads who begins the drama and gets attacked. Sally Jean will play LILY. Emma's oldest friend who leaves her. Mya Smith will play SARA. One of the girls in the group. Olivia Yiznitsky will play OLIVIA. Lily's new friend in the group.     I plan to film at night, therefore I will have my parents there to watch over me and the actors to make sure we are safe. We all have phones that we are capable of using in case of emergency. We will not split up and will stay near each other during all filming times. We will have light at the beach in order to ensure we can see our surroundings.   ...
