Ashes by Sophie Black short film and The truth about meeting women by TJ Misny

In this lesson we were asked to watch a short story called Ashes and we had to write down notes about the film on a piece of paper.

1. Shots: Mid shot of the guy sitting on the bed, Close up of the man and girl in bed, Cut in of the girls hands tied to the bed, Two shot of them both kissing each other and also a Noddy shot where the girl is sitting up in the bed thinking about what just happened. Also a Medium Close Up of the blood on the walls and on the woman's mouth.
2. Sound: The sound is really important in this film because it sets the scene for all of the different shots. Also it created tension between the woman and the man by making the music fast paced and dramatic and when the man is on top of her it was like you could feel her heart beating.
3. Emotion and meaning: Towards the start of the film it shows the words 'Your happiness blinds you' written on the wall in blood which means that shes too happy with him and isn't listening to the danger signs that her friends are giving her. 
4. How might it inspire your own shots? Its inspired me by showing how we can use different emotions for each shot.

In this lesson we watched a shot film called The truth about meeting women by TJ Misny.

1. Shots: mid shot, close up, cut in, Cutaways and Two shots. Each time he was a girl he saw what would happen between them and also each time he was in a different place.
2. Sound: they used sad and happy songs throughout the film and the happy ones when he was with the girls but then when they said it was over it went straight to a sad song.
3. Emotion/ Meaning:Its saying that hes making excuses not to talk to the girls and has a fear of what will happen to them if they break u and each time he went to a cutaway the relationship ended in different ways.
4. How might it inspire your own shots? Its inspired my by showing how you can use the different shots like cutaways how he went to different placed each time as soon as he looked at the girls.
