Curfew and Psycho - Analysis

Curfew Analysis . In the movie curfew the equilibrium changes and progresses as the storyline thickens , for example at the beginning “Riche” the male character in the storyline shows he is about to end his life , until he feels like he has something to live for, which is his niece . In the movie we are shown the two representations of both characters for example you would expect a child to act like a child , but in this case she takes over that adult responsibility and suppresses her child like qualities , we see the two characters act in reverse . She acted as if she was superior to “Riche” . As the film progresses we see Riche kind of take back that adult authority a little bit and she learned to respect him in a way . In my opinion Riche is the hero in this story because he moves the narrative along , he builds the story . If we think about the word “ hero” we associate that with a particular person or character that saves the day , but in terms of narrative we don’t see your t...

Showreel Analysis

What Happens?  How is text/graphics/sound used?   Why's it good?  This showreel shows the viewers the job as an editor, its editor and creator done an exceptional job in making this showreel due to it being very hard to make and its showing the viewers a lot of detail about the job and its good at keeping the viewers engaged to the video because of its amazing technical creation. In this, the editor represents shapes as a way to show how an editor edits its videos, so as seen a square is used to show an editor has to 'snip' 'trim' 'cut' videos to create a perfect video, most of this showreel is animation because there's a lot of movement and effects, i would believe they used cinema 4d and after effects to create this. The editors used text/graphics and sound really effectively to get the message across to the viewer, The sound that we could hear is  relaxing background music that is really synced well to the graphics and text, this music also ke...
