Movie Poster Copy

We were set the task of copying an existing movie poster - I chose to copy the poster for 'Submarine' by Richard Ayoade.

Completing this task will be beneficial to me when creating my ancillary task of a movie poster; as it has helped me develop my skills in photoshop and learn the codes and conventions of movie posters.

Lighting Workshop

In class, we looked at two different styles of lighting. One being Caravaggio, and one being Tim Walker.

Here are photos taken in the style of Caravaggio, taking influence from his chiaroscuro (contrasting light and shadow) lighting.




























Tim Walker is a more contemporary artist, who uses artificial lighting within a frame to light the subject.  Here are some photos in the style of Walker:





Taking part in this workshop will be useful in making my film as it has given me inspiration for different ways to light a shot. I think I will take more influence from Tim Walker in my film, for example I want one shot to be outside a tent, and have the only source of light come from within the tent.
















Rough Storyboard



Below are photos of my initial storyboard.

Doing this storyboard will be useful in making my film as it has allowed me to display  the narrative in an organised way. On top of this, my teacher gave me feedback in terms of what to do next. I was told to make another storyboard which contains more information, which can be referenced on the day of shooting.
