Movie conventions research: The black phone

    Hey blog! it’s me again, today I will be talking about my genre, mystery, and the elements that are in this genre. I will also be talking about my likes and dislikes on these elements. 

    

    In this genre some of the elements are suspense, realistic plot, foreshadowing, a villain who is usually not assumed to be the villain, and a resolution. these conventions really bring out to the audience that this is a mystery movie. First were going to start off with my likes.

 

        In mystery some of my favorite conventions are suspense, and the realistic plot. My all-time favorite is when you don't know who the villain is, and it turns out to be someone who you never suspected. I enjoy these because when they connect it really makes you think throughout the whole movies but not in a bad way. Now that we have discussed my likes with this genre, less talk about my dislikes.

 

    let’s start off with, the foreshadowing. The foreshadowing shows a lot of prediction, although this would be one of my least dislikes because I like the connection it makes with the end and the beginning. Another thing I do not like is when the resolution isn't exactly a resolution, and they end it off with a cliff hanger. 

    


    Thats it for today blog! until next time. Karina logging off.

You sure youâ €™re not a robot?     Lana looks up at her, expression unreadable, then flips her notebook to a blank page and scribbles something. She holds it up:     “Sheâ €™s watching.â €     RILEY   (frowning)   Uhâ €¦ whoâ €™s watching?     Lana points toward the dark hallway leading to the bedrooms. Riley follows her gazeâ €”just darkness.     RILEY   Nice try. You trying to freak me out?     Lana shakes her head, eyes wi...

Critical Reflection for Short Film

  After our film “She’s Here” was released, many questions began to form, one of the questions that stood out to me the most was how our products represented social groups or issues. To begin, the main representation in our film was disability where the kid that the babysitter is taking care of is a mute child. We made this obvious to the audience when the child, Lana, began to write in her daily notebook to communicate with her babysitter. The use of the mute child showed how lack of communication could occur even when you say everything properly, but the tone you say it can have a strong impact on how the person receiving the message interprets the message, which is an entirely different form of “lack of communication”. This can also connect to social issues in life, for instance, the experience the child goes through can sooner or later lead to post-traumatic distress for the child and even the babysitter, affecting the mental health of one another. Along with this, the child be...
