Genre Research: Rampage

 Common Camera Angles:

  • An establishing shot is used at the beginning of scenes to show what is going on in the scene. 
  • A wide shot is used to show the actors with the setting 
  • A close-up shot is to show the actor working on a specific task 
  • An extreme long shot is used to show what is out in the distance that an actor is looking at

Mis-En-Scene
  • Common costumes are cargo pants and t-shirts for men and t-shirts and leggings for women
  • Common lighting used in the film is fill lighting and natural lighting from the sun. 
  • Common actors used are from other adventure films. 
  • Common make-up used is to show the aggressiveness of the actor at that moment as well as to make the actor's face seem smoother.
  • Common props used is debris, boulders, and concrete to show the damage that has taken place 
  • A common setting is a city with debris and damage everywhere. 
Common sound used:
  • Common types of sound that are used are ambient sound, dietetic sound, and dialogue between actors. These are used to grab the viewer's attention with ambient and diegetic sound and dialogue to show how actors work with each other. 
Common editing techniques used:
  • Shot/reverse/shot is used to show characters dealing with their own situations 
  • Jump cuts are used to jump from one activity to another

Some elements of this film that went well with my genre were the types of editing used because they show adventure very well to the viewer. I also felt the camera angles worked well with the genre because they got the focus of the genre and represented it well. 

Some elements that I get were not that good were the props used and the setting. They are not commonly used throughout the genre but they are throughout the film so I felt it was not the best thing for the genre.

Our Oddball Day to Filming

Today was the first day that I planned to film. It started off according to plan where I met the people that I would be filming with at their house to pick them up and get ready to film. We then headed back to my house to gather all of the supplies needed for the film. I then checked the weather forcast and saw that it was supposed to rain in two hours. Which gave us just enough time to start filming at one of the locations. I thougth we would have time and then it would start raining and it would all be okay. But, as we headed to the filming location it started to rain super badly. But, because of where I live you can usually wait 15 minutes and it will go away.

Some said we should just wait it out some more and some decided that we shoul leave. So, we decided to then leave and go home. When we g...

The Start of a New Chapter

Hi there, my name is Aaron Shaffer and I am a student at Fort Lauderdale High School. I am 16 years old and in my third year of high school. Over the years, through the opportunities I have been able to receive, I have been able to achieve a lot academically.

A little bit about my backstory is that I was born in Fort Lauderdale and have spent all of my life here. I find it a great place to live and enjoy the things that it allows me to do. Having access to so many different activities has allowed me to have many memories made with my friends.
