Costume & props research


Planning costume and props- media from Abraham Jones

Extra:

I observed the type of clothing used in hip-hop. Clothing is expensive, branded, and very detailed in quality and quantity. Far from simple at some points. This includes hefty jewellery, excessive facial decorations, etc. This is to symbolise characters, to prove their success with unique clothing most people wouldn't be able to afford. it gives off a sense of over-flowing confidence that most hip-hop artists/rappers have to this day. This is accompanied by many other things, such as body language and facial expression. They are normally firm and solid to compliment the style of clothing and props.
Rappers don't often go for jeans or casual shirts in their video, nor any form of smart wear. It is outof the ordinary.

Analysing Cinematography task

Analysing Cinematography


  • Low angle shots: Used for camera's being placed on the ground. Shows most of the character or the setting. This is to express dominance and high status as a character, or to make a character look intimidating. 
  • High Angle Shots: The opposite. Makes the character more belittled. 
  • Closed Framing: Recommended if you want to show isolation for an object or character/ 
  • Open Framing: Shows the atmosphere more. Gives the sense of freedom.
  • Standard Focus: Main image slightly overshadows rest of the image 
  • Shallow Focus: Making the images look more focal. 
  • DOF: 'Depth of field'. simply just how sharp images appear


Analysis of cinematography: "before I self-destruct" 

Starts off with some open framing. this is used to show the setting of the story, already giving the viewer an idea of what the story is like, or at least just a little idea. it shows that this is a big city, where anything can happen. crime, dreams, a tournament, etc. 




There is a standard focus as the first character appears on the screen. He is looking around cautiously. It shows how this characters actions may be significant to the storyline, or his actions will give an either further idea of what goes on in the city. 


Suddenly, a medium close-up of the character. implies his relevance and that he is the focus of the scene. 


A high angle shot of the character fleeing. The way how we see how he runs so fiercely for a long time all in one shot shows his fear of something really terrifying. 

More of a closed frame than opening. This shows that this frightened character now no longer has nowhere to run. Time is running out, his situation is looking dire.
