Who are the Croods

•  They both walk bipedally and knuckle walk.
• They are wearing animal fur for clothing.
• they do not use weapons until the end of the movie.
• They have robust bone structure and muscles. 
• Very hard cranium. 
• They are mostly scavengers 
• High level of language
• They domesticated animals.
• They made cave art

Through these points, I think that they are homo neanderthalensis.

Guy is probably a homo sapien as he is able to think more and has a less stocky build.

 

Rendering Internal

For the past few weeks, we have been learning to render drink bottles of our design. 

These are my drink bottles.

While doing this, I enjoyed that I could just sit down and colour in my bottle. I also enjoyed learning how to render.

While doing this, I disliked how we were using the same design that we came up with at the start of the year.

Film techniques - Over the shoulder shot

What is the effect of an over the shoulder shot?
The over-the-shoulder shot shows the connection between characters.

What film aspect shows a disconnection between characters?
When both characters are no longer in the same shot together. Instead, they are in a single close up.

How does the director of this scene show the disconnect of characters?
The director does this by putting the camera on a dolly. While the characters are talking, the camera is slowly moved forward to change the shot from an over-the-shoulder-medium shot to a single-medium-close-up shot. Once they are no longer in the same shot, it means that they are no longer on the same page.

What eventually totally isolates the female character?
Although they are no longer in the same shot, both characters are still connected to the waiter, who is shown on the edge of the medium-close-up shot. She becomes completely isolated when the medium-close-up shot that was facing her changes to a close-up of just her, while the shot facing the male character does not change. This shows that the male character still has a connection with the waiter but the female character is now completely alone.

Film techniques - Tone

How does tone work in a film

What else can we call tone in a film?
The way the film makes the audience feel.

What are the three main elements of tone?

The three main elements of tone are lighting, exposure, and art direction. Lighting is the contrast of the scene. By darkening the figure of a person, they can be seen as dangerous. Exposure is the different levels of light contained in each section of the scene. When one section of the scene is much brighter than the other, it shows that this part of the scene is happy, while the other is ominous and dark. Art direction is the tone of the background. A brighter toned background can be seen as inviting, while a darker background can be seen as dangerous.

How and why does Coppola use tone in the classic film "The Godfather"?

An example of Coppola using tone in during the first shots of "The Godfather". To create an ominous, mysterious, and dangerous feeling, he made the whole scene dark, making it hard to tell what was going on. These underexposed scenes made it so that any bit of light had an impact on the scene.

How can the directors control the feelings of the scene?
By changing the tone of the scene. Either by darkening or brightening the scene. 

Mini-writing no.1

Have you ever been in a room full of people, some buy needs help, but nobody decides to help him. That

sitution is caused by what is called the Bystander Effect. In such situations, It gives us thoughts like “someone else will help them” or “I’m not the right person to help them. And because everyone thinks that way, no one ends up helping. To solve why this occurs, an experiment was carried out where different amounts of people were brought into a room to fill a survey, while a man struggles to set up a tent. The purpose of the experiment was to measure the amount of time it took for someone to help him. The experiment was first done with ten people. After repeating the experiment seven times, the result was that it took an average of 8 minutes and 1 second for someone to stand up and help him. Next, it was done with 5 people. After repeating the experiment seven times, the average time was 7 minutes and 25 seconds. Lastly, it was done with one person and the average time was 3 minutes, the fastest time being only 12 seconds. The conclusion to this experiment was that the more people there are in the room, the responsibility to help the man out was diffused, meaning it was spread out. They called this the diffusion of responsibility.
