Movie Research: I See You

 The first convention in the beginning of the movie I would include in are final project would be a zoom shot which transitioned to a pan. Another convention I would is a long shot. Around the first 10 minutes of the movie it was a low angle I would think about adding. A convention I enjoyed watching was a close up shot on a bike tire. Following this was a establishing/aerial shot showing a car parking into a house. The scene where the father is trapped in the closet the dialogue is very suspenseful. I don't like the excessive use of medium close ups. I did not really enjoy watching the extreme close ups. The two shot I don't like the way there dressed.

Common lighting in mystery films include dim light and shadows. The cast acting may include problem solving, stress, and confusion. Makeup used in mystery films include fake blood, bruises, and cuts. Props used in mystery films are weapons, red string, magnifying glass, and handcuffs.

Some elements I would use from this genre would be dark colors, diegetic sound, and dim lighting. Elements I wouldn't use is blood.

Our pitch

  Pitch A: A person is going shopping for Christmas but, doesn't realize someone is following them the whole time. Pitch B: Girl has an online boyfriend that shes never seen and he unexpectedly warts to meet up one night. Discuss Pitch A: As a group we though of this because we wanted to do something that had to do with Christmas but a down side is that It only has two characters which wouldn't be as fun. Discuss Pitch B: With this one we realized that we couldnt have to drive to any location. The only downside is that we would have to get everyone in the video in one place at a time good for everyone. Final Decision: Since cue don't want it to be horror  we decided to go with Pitch B= A girl has an online boyfriend that shes never seen and he unexpectedly wants to meet up
